perfectly counterbalance your body as you move from one
task to another. From the moment you sit down, the SwingSeat
Pro senses the position of your body and independently adjusts
the seat and backrest to perfectly align to you because
their movement is synchronized to your body. The back and
seat move independent of one another, providing for a completely
intuitive system of adjustment that requires no action on
the part of the user.
Reach forward to answer the phone, lean back to relax,
sit up to work a your keyboard, SwingSeat's seat and backrest
automatically provide superb comfort and support. You can
concentrate 100% of your effort on your work while enjoying
the wonderful benefits of natural motion because your SwingSeat
Pro allows you to continuously vary your posture without
having to make any adjustments to the chair. The SwingSeat
Pro is the only chair in the world that allows your body
to move naturally, in the same way that you walk, swim and
dance. Because the SwingSeat Pro dynamically adjusts to
you, you'll never have to fuss with levers and complicated
controls.
The SwingSeat Pro Task Chair provides great support to
the low and mid-back and unrestricted freedom for the arms
and shoulders to move. The SwingSeat Managers Chair adds
upper back for the user who prefers a more reclined posture.

Articulating Gel Forearm Support with Removable Mouse
Tray
ErgoCanada.com is excited
to be offering a new, incredibly versatile and well-manufactured
lightweight forearm support which is not only durable enough
to stand up to the 'daily grind' but also adjustable enough
to meet the needs of any user.
The
Articulating Gel Forearm Support with Removable Mouse Tray
is designed to support the weight of your arm while using
the mouse or keyboard. By taking the weight of the arms
off the shoulders, neck and back, fatigue and discomfort
arising from computer use can be avoided.
This fully-adjustable, durable articulated gel forearm
support provides excellent support and the soft gel rest
area ensures that there are no pressure points on the arms
- allowing unimpeded circulation during use. This makes
it ideal for relaxing and strengthening fatigued or damaged
muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
With over 15" of extension from the edge of your desk
(12.25" to the centre of the pad) you can easily mount
this support to your desk without affecting your workspace.
Most individuals will clamp the support just to the right
of their keyboard, allowing you to move while supported
between your keyboard and mouse.
The movement of the arm is fluid, smooth and effortless;
there is no friction and the joints do not offer any resistance
when switching from one task to another. The arm has 2 rotation
points; the first (closest to the clamp) is used to set
the overall height of the support, the second (closest to
the user) is to adjust the angle of the gel pad (allowing
you to have it sloping downward, upward, or level).
For more information on the new Articulating Gel Forearm
Support with Removable Mouse Tray, see the Arm/Palm Rests
category in our

Aviator
Laptop Stands by Keynamics Now in Stock!
ErgoCanada.com
is excited to be offering the Aviator Laptop Stand which

with convenient simplicity of setup and innovative features.
The Aviator Laptop Stand by Keynamics is a great product
for anyone needing to use their laptops while travelling.
It extends the laptop towards you and angles it to increase
the height and improve the angle of the screen. This greatly
inproves the comfort of using a laptop while flying - even
when the seat in front of you is reclined!
When folded for transport it is only 12.62" x .5"
x 3.35", and with the Aviator only weighing 250 grams,
taking it everywhere you take your laptop is fast and convenient.
This product works with all laptops and also elevates the
laptop, improving airflow.

in Black, Grey and White), see the Laptop Stands category

The
GoogolBoard and GoogolPad, a New Modern Styling for Large
Key Keyboard Input Devices
ErgoCanada.com
is pleased to be carrying the GoogolBoard and GoogolPad,
large key keyboards and numeric keypads which feature sculpted
rounded keycaps (like one finds on most 'conventional' keyboards)
and a more familiar layout. In addition, these keyboards
offer access to windows keys and are native USB.
The Googolboard/GoogolPad uses large, easy-to-read brightly
colored keys with white legends to create a fun, creative,
educational environment for any child. The brightly colored
1 keys distinguish between numbers, letters, and symbols
for easy typing and learning.
The GoogolBoard EZ/GoogolPad EZ uses large easy to read
black legends on white 1" keycaps, and will unobtrusively
blend into any modern office.
The mechanical keyswitches respond easily to gentle finger
pressure, making typing easy and more comfortable, while
still providing positive tactile feedback. The oversized
keys make either version of this product ideal for individuals
with visual impairments or difficulty in targeting keys
on regular keyboards. This keyboard is a native USB device
and includes a PS/2 adapter, and functions on both PC and
Mac (OS 10.3 or higher). The GoogolPad is a native USB device
and functions on both PC and Mac (OS 10.3 or higher).

Evoluent Bundle
|
|
The Evoluent Compact Left Handed Keyboard is the only
compact keyboard with a numeric keypad on the left side. Many
right handed individuals find this keyboard ideal as they can
put the mouse where the numeric keypad would normally be, and
still have access to the keypad with their left hand when needed.
The compact layout allows this keyboard to be used in situations
where conventional left handed keyboards will not fit.
Ordinary keyboard wrist supports are flat on top to support your
hands flat on the keyboards. Your forearms are twisted out of
their neutral positions in the same way a forearm is twisted when
holding an ordinary mouse. Also, only small areas of the hands
contact the wrist support, which causes uncomfortable pressure
points. The Evoluent PostureRight Wrist Support solves
the problem with a contoured surface which reduces forearm twisting
and increases the contact areas for greater comfort.
Buy the Evoluent Compact Left Handed Keyboard
with the Evoluent PostureRight Wrist Support and save $10 on the
bundle!
Add any version of the ever-popular Evoluent
VerticalMouse2 to your bundle, and save even more - $15 off Evoluent's
triad of products.
For more information, see the Evoluent category in our Online
Catalog.

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 (KB800A-PS2-BLK)
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 KB800A-PS2-BLK is $30.00, and the price
of the RollerMouse PRO is $240.00. Until further notice, we
will offer the bundle of both products for $250.00, a savings
of $20.00 off the regular price!
The normal price of the Zeomi ZTab Keyboard is $55.00, and the
price of the RollerMouse Classic is $230.00. Until further
notice, we will offer the bundle of both products for $250.00,
a savings of $35.00 off the regular price!
