With glue or velcro or something?<br>It could very well be that sliding would be more ergonomic than holding a mouse, but this thing looks like it was designed by red green himself. For those of you who aren't familiar with red green, sufficed to say: don't be surprised if it comes with a roll of duct tape and a canoe paddle.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[alex]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 26th 2007 10:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MousEX Glider extends your mouse's utility]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/26/mousex-glider-extends-your-mouses-utility/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/26/mousex-glider-extends-your-mouses-utility/</guid><description><![CDATA[WTF?

So they want to add a bunch of programmable buttons onto a mouse, but instead of doing just that, they put those buttons onto a stupid pad which you are forced to slide around unergonomically.  First of all, they are trying to "solve" the "problem" of dragging a mouse around.  I don't know about other people, but I don't drag my mouse anywhere.  My wrist stays still as I nudge the mouse around with my thumb, ring finger and pinkie.  With this stupid thing, I would be forced to actually slide the pad around with my wrist which is much more fatiguing.  Second of all, I now have another wire to contend with.  I haven't used a wire on a mouse in years and now they want me to regress?  Lastly, it's goddamn ugly.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tonicboy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 26th 2007 12:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on MousEX Glider extends your mouse's utility]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/26/mousex-glider-extends-your-mouses-utility/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/26/mousex-glider-extends-your-mouses-utility/</guid><description><![CDATA[i hope this doesn't catch on.
