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.

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.
