But… moving this mouse requires the same arm movement as every other mouse, no matter how “ergonomic” its design.

And if you use a touchpad, you can easily adjust its angle and use a palm rest to alleviate any wrist issues. To me, still the best option.

But if you’re happy with your solution, that’s great! Different strokes and all that…

I would think using a touch pad would just be trading one issue for another!
I understand you deal with back issues, but what about those who have rsi’s in the wrist and such?
I’ve used the Humanscale switchmouse for a few months and my wrist issues are gone!
