However, there are two things about it that make my using it aggravate my RSI (tennis elbow) symptoms to the point that I am moving on to try a WACOM tablet. These are 2 things I think Kensington could redesign if they wanted to. The first is the size of the carrier that holds the ball. Its footprint is so bulky, I can't get it close enough to my keyboard, to my body. I have to swivel my arm at the elbow about 8 inches over to the left (I am left handed) to reach the device. This twists my arm in a way that makes my muscles on the top side of my forearm ache. Second, the tilt of the device seems backwards. As it is I end up bending my wrist backward out of neutral and that aggravates my carpal tunnel. If I could place the Expert Mouse immediately adjacent to my keyboard, I think it would be just rignt . I have tried to contact Kensington about this but my email to them always get bounced back.
