They should have just put a laser tracker under a keyboard. Then you'd have a 104-key mouse and you'd never have to move your hands again.



I had the exact same idea a few days ago.


I'd actually be interested to have the area where my wrists make contact with the keyboard be responsive like a large version of the old Thinkpad "TrackPoint" cursor dot thingy.


The unofficial name was "the clitoris" - with practice I liked it but I don't often get chance to play with one now ;0)>


"the old Thinkpad "TrackPoint" cursor dot thingy." = "clitoris"

Mods you're a cruel unbending lot - that is simple factual information.

Not that being modded down bothers me at all, no sireee.


Don't worry about it. I had to spend ~2 minutes looking for what it was actually called.
