An idea whose time has come
by March 15, 2005 9:15 AM PST
I suffer from a tremor that is familial. It does impact my mousing ability and is frustrating. I'm told it will only get worse with age. At $124, though, it's still too expensive.

I'd like to see a pen with the same feature.

I would appreciate information about the tremor-mouse. I know
this may put you into the area of commerce but for me it is
about quality of life... where can I get one?

Please tell me,

why not in software?

I don't know exactly what this device does, but if all it does if filter mouse input, why not just do this in software??

They can as easily control other functions of the mouse (such as inverting the movement of the cursor in response to physical mouse movement). It feels like we're back in the 80's and we need a hardware solution becauase the market has people using Amigas and Indys.
