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 device devices which rely upon a cylindrical bar.

Picture of Mousetrapper AdvanceAn 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-manoever 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 Cirque 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.

For more information on the new Mousetrapper Pointing Device, see the Mouse - Alternative Category in our → Online Catalog

Matias Folding Keyboard now in stock!

Picture of Folding Keyboard from MatiasErgoCanada.com is now offering the ultimate travel companion for the laptop user - a usable, high quality, foldable keyboard which when folded forms its own reliable carrying case.

If you are looking for a full-size keyboard with numeric keypad that is still portable as a laptop accessory, then the Folding Keyboard from Matias is the keyboard you want. When opened it measures 18" wide, 5" deep, and 0.87" thick, and when closed only 10.08" wide, 5" deep, and 1.18" thick.

The keyswitches are high-quality dome switches (low travel); the Matias Fn key also allows quick and easy access to keys that normally require a long reach – Arrow keys, Page Up, Page Down, Delete, and others can now be typed right from home row, without moving your hand.

The keyboard also has the standard volume controls: Volume Up, Volume Down, and Mute – as well as function keys, page navigation keys, and cursor keys.

For more information on the new Matias Folding Keyboard, see the Laptop Accessories Category in our → Online Catalog

Sandio 3D Game O2 Mouse from Sandiotech now in stock!

Picture of X-Slim Compact Keyboard from A4TechErgoCanada.com is pleased to offer the ideal mouse for all 3D applications, regardless of whether they are for work (graphics design) or play (3D games) - the Sandio 3D Game O2 Mouse.

While designed originally for 3-D gamers, this mouse has proven itself to be suprisingly effective for any 3-D Application including Google Earth and Microsoft Virtual Earth. It has 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) with 16 programmable keys, and the DPI settings can be adjusted on the fly from 400 DPI to 2000 DPI. It also comes with a removable ergonomic wrist support.

Because using 2-D input devices for 3-D software is cumbersome and inefficient, Sandio’s 3D Game O2 was designed to enhance the user experience and increase productivity by providing a more powerful and intuitive interface than the ordinary 2-D mouse.

The operation of the 3D Game O2 is easy to use. Objects and camera views change in the same direction as simple finger gestures. The object or camera view moves forward when the user pushes, backward when they pull, and turns when they twist their fingers.

For more information on the new 3D Game O2 Mouse, see the Contoured Category in our → Online Catalog

RollerMouse Bundle Promotion

Picture of RollerMouse PRO  with A Style Keyboard

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!
