3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator for Notebooks Appeals to Second Life Fans
April 10th, 2008
When you think your mobile mouse like the Logitech VX Nano is unrivaled by anything else, that maybe true if you are navigating in 2D program mostly. (Well, 3D-rendered FPS games are an exception, but you rarely have to leave the ground.) The 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator for Notebooks is one of a kind input device that lets you take control of the Z axis as well the usual X and Y. Basically, you can push knob down, twist it, pull up and even tilt it, giving you the greatest control in 3D environments. And you don't have to worry about the device favoring only the right-handed majority since USB controller is as ambidextrous as it gets. This is immensely useful in Google Earth, AutoCAD, Adobe PhotoShop, Maya and now Second Life. These programs aren't something you would do well with a touchpad or a top-notch notebook mouse. One caveat is that the base needs to be a bit heavier, but 3Dconnexion has to strike a balance between portability and stability. 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator for Notebooks - 3D motion controller
