The Evoluent VerticalMouse 3 is a great idea to solve some of the more uncomfortable aspects of computing with a mouse. When using a normal computer mouse the wrist position is pronated and twisted away from its natural position. The VerticalMouse 3 restores the position of the wrist and arm to the natural “handshake” position.

The mouse has 5 programmable buttons, the scroll wheel has detents to allow easy line-by-line scrolling and the optical tracking can be adjusted from 800 dpi up to 2600 dpi so you can refine your mouse speed. There’s even a programmable Break Reminder built into the driver telling you step away from the infernal machine. US$80 for the wired version (left or right handed), or US$120 for the wireless (right only).

Relieved Wrist and Arm Pain. The Evoluent� VerticalMouse� 3 is the advanced third generation of the revolutionary mouse from the inventor of the handshake grip. Many users said earlier models relieved their wrist and arm pain.
