Design Faux Pas #1


The answer to the crippling pain of RSI in your hands and wrists - cause it in your feet instead! D'oh!

I can see myself getting confused while using this.

It'd certainly take some getting used to! Not really understanding why the mouse has so many buttons though!

If you're carrying your shopping bags home, you wouldn't hold them all in one hand because the pain would be crippling on one side.
You would divide them between two hands thus sharing the weight.
Imagine if you've been suffering from RSI for several years, this would solve the problem. By the time pain began to effect your feet your hand should have technically repaired itself.

I beg to differ. No problem is being "solved" - you'd merely be going through phases of RSI in either your hands or feet as you alternated between the common mouse and this new contraption.

A real solution to the problem would be to design a mouse that no longer causes RSI full-stop. Now that would catch on quick.
