This makes this product ideal for individuals whose hands are otherwise occupied (for example in playing an instrument) and need to scroll through to see the next page of music.

Trackbar Emotion Central Pointing Device by Eurooffice now available in Canada!
ErgoCanada.com
is excited to be launching a new central pointing device option here in Canada, the Trackbar Emotion by Eurooffice. This is the most affordable central pointing device on the market today, and features 2 x 1000 DPI optical sensors (one exclusively tracking horizontal movement, the other exclusively tracking vertical movement).
The Trackbar Emotion central pointing device eliminates the 'reach' for the mouse by locating your mousing device immediately below your keyboard, right where your hands are while typing. As winner of the NECE 2008 Award for Best New Product, the Trackbar Emotion is the latest version of a mousing device that uses a rollerbar to navigate your cursor.
The Trackbar Emotion comes with six tactile membrane buttons to perform frequent actions like right click, left click, double click, etc. It also has two plastic palm supports on either side of the unit to provide support while resting. There is a clickable scroll wheel just below the rollerbar, and the entire unit is small enough to be easily transported when changing locations.
The Trackbar Emotion can also be used in reverse position by turning the unit 180° and pressing the white button on the underside.

The pole the keyboard platform attaches to is positioned between the bottom of the desk top and the floor and can be set up in less than a minute.
It also has ergonomic features, like a swiveling platform (360°) with both tilting (22°) and telescoping (22") mechanisms to give virtually unlimited adjustment for ultimate comfort. When not in use, the platform can be stored out of sight, and includes a mousing platform with pad.

Mousetrapper Central Pointing Device by Mousetrapper now available in Canada!
ErgoCanada.com
is excited to be launching a new central pointing device option here in Canada, the Mousetrapper Advance by Mousetrapper. This is an innovative, more tactile alternative to other central pointing devices which rely upon a cylindrical bar.
An alternative mouse, the Mousetrapper Advance eliminates the need to reach for your pointing device by placing a steering pad (not a touchpad) immediately below your keyboard next to your hands. This steering pad is like a hybrid between a touchpad, a treadmill and a cylindrical bar pointing device.
Because it is designed to work with your keyboard, the Mousetrapper functions like an extension of your keyboard without overextending your arms. It has an easy-to-maneuver steering pad along with five non-tactile buttons to perform frequent actions like right click, left click, double click, etc.
You can even scroll up and down a page using the right-hand side of the steering pad (like on a touchpad!). It also has palm supports to cushion your palms while keying and using the steering pad, and comes in black housing with an attached flexible gray mat to place your keyboard on.

RollerMouse Bundle Promotion
|
|
The RollerMouse Pro is a unique and highly effective ergonomic
pointing device that helps prevent strain and tension of upper
extremity muscles including shoulders and elbows. It is a remarkable
way to control the cursor without the need to grip or reach for
a mouse, and requires minimal space.
Keyboards with a conventional rectangular design tend to work
best with the RollerMouse product, and we have two options which
offer unique features. The "A" Style keyboard (KBS720UB
or KBS720B) offers an ultra thin design that's the correct
height for integration with the RollerMouse PRO. Another benefit
is the unique 'A' shape of the keys which promotes improved ergonomic
positioning.
The Zeomi ZTab Keyboard in white features a triple-width TAB
key under the cursor arrows, making one handed numerical data
input a breeze. It partners nicely with the Classic RollerMouse
(the first generation model) in white.
The normal price of the KBS720B is $20.00, and the price
of the RollerMouse PRO is $210.00. Until further notice, we
will offer the bundle of both products for $220.00, a savings
of $10.00 off the regular price!
The normal price of the KBS720UB is $25.00, and the price
of the RollerMouse PRO is $210.00. Until further notice, we
will offer the bundle of both products for $225.00, a savings
of $10.00 off the regular price!
The normal price of the Zeomi ZTab Keyboard is $55.00, and the
