Insert your own mouse ball joke here

I tend to get repetitive strain injury working at a computer all day (which makes the fact that I’m currently working full time in an office role to save up some cash to become a struggling artiste seem delightfully ironic…). Part of the reason is apparently the fact that my mouse is not ergonomically shaped to fit my hand.

The lovely people at Jelfin are trying to correct that with the Jelfin Sphere Mouse. It’s the first ball shaped computer mouse, so is much more of a natural fit into the palm of your hand. The buttons are at right angles to the desk almost. This is where it confused me for a moment, but that means the buttons are opperated with them held facing away from you (I’m blonde, leave me alone).

My only oncern is if my hand would seaze up in a claw shape rather than a pointed shape- although it is gel padded to help with comfort. It does look great for designers because it would move a lot more freely. I think I just like it because it’s pretty…
