Ok, the other keyboard thread got me thinking about a present for my dad. Hes a computer programmer and had major Carpal Tunnel Syndrome surgery a few years ago. I want to get him a keyboard that would be good for his wrists. What are some good keyboards and mice for wrists and whatnot? Keep in mind, he programs alot(No gaming at all) and he likes wireless keyboards and wireless mice(The wire hurts his wrist).

 

get that for the mouse its a gel pad not to hard or not to soft. It's a Fellows pad. Then I have the microsoft intellipoint 5.0 with tilt wheel (side scroll). I like it because it fits the shape of my hand.

For the keyboard, get a pad also or a keyboard with the extra piece of plastic at the bottom for the wrist. I'm on pretty much all day when I can and I have no problems so it should be easier for your dad

yeah I know it's dirty, its like 6years old

 

I think he uses a split keyboard right now. I'm thinking of getting him one of the ball mice so he doesn't need to use his wrist at all. Its just the keyboard that would really beniefit him since hes on the computer from 7:30 till 5 or 5:30, comes home then on the computer from like 1-3 or 4(He has a really bad back too)

 

There are keyboards with these pads already on them also. This combination would be the best.

 

Wow... this keyboard looks really weird...
