The wireless
PenMouse, P/N VM-221, is an ergonomic pen
shaped optical wireless computer mouse that also works as a laser
pointer. In the “Mouse Mode”, it provides the convenience and
comfort of a traditional pen with a “pen-and-paper”-like sensitivity
for working over almost any non-reflective surfaces, including soft
and irregular surfaces such as a pillow or your lap. You need only a
small workspace (2" x 2"/ 5cm x 5cm) to use it, which makes it an
ideal mouse for laptop use.
In “Presenter Mode”, the wireless
“PenMouse” performs like a wireless laser pointer with a 10-meter
operating range. Though the wireless “PenMouse” works very well at
the desktop, it also makes an excellent laptop mouse.

Contour RollerMouse Pro is an innovative new option to a computer
mouse and a remarkably simple solution to implement in your
enterprise. Its ergonomic design places cursor control just below
the spacebar of any keyboard... making data entry faster, safer, and

When you
use the Contour RollerMouse, your hands and fingers stay on the
keys... no more awkward or uncomfortable reaching for a mouse. And
the RollerMouse's built-in ergonomic palm supports provide optimum
comfort and safety. The RollerMouse can be controlled with thumb or
fingertip motion using either hand, and cursor control is placed

Programmable buttons and a scroll wheel speed up repetitive
functions, and optical technology ensures precise control of cursor
movement. Now you can reduces strain on the wrist and shoulder, and
eliminates mouse shoulder injuries.

Trackbar Emotion's most unique
feature is the trackbar. Trackbar rolls forward and back and slides
from side to side to move cursor. It's comfortable and intuitive.
The Trackbar Emotion's Centered Pointing Device is designed to
reduce the discomfort and risk of injury presented by classic mouse
designs.
The Trackbar Emotion reduces or
eliminates the sideways or reaching arm movements that traditional
mousing requires. Instead, the Trackbar is centered right at the
base of the keyboard and your palms rest on the smooth,
sweat-resistant surface as you type.

Think about the amount of typing you
do in the course of a normal day at the computer. You might start
the day by answering several e-mail messages, then move on to
letters you need to write, followed by the report your boss wants in
three days. That can
add up to an awful lot of time spent on typing. Things get worse if you need to juggle reference materials
and make formatting changes. Using speech-recognition software, you
can do most, if not all, of these typing tasks by dictation.
