Wow Pen Eco is Actually a Mouse

If you are looking for a mouse that puts less repetitive strain on your wrists and hands, a vertical mouse such as this might be just what you need. While this gadget is called a pen, it isn't really what I consider to be a pen, its simply a vertical mouse of which there are several currently on the market.

Wow-pen claims their design can remove most symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome associated with the use of normal mice. While it looks quite different, the pen has the same functionality of normal mice with two buttons. A scroll wheel is located on the side of the mouse. Handwriting is supposed to be accepted directly to your computer when using the Wow mouse and the WoW-electronic whiteboard software. Resolution for the device is 400/800dpi. Connectivity is via USB and PS2 for Windows 98, ME, 2000, NT 4 SP 3 and up, XP and tables edition.
