Hi,
Ages ago, in part of my effort to evaluate alternative User I/O devices, I played with one of these. It's been sitting in my "USB peripherals" box in the decade (?) since.
Has anyone actively *used* one of these to comment on whether or not it's worthwhile to install/keep/discard? And, whether or not it "plays well" with other I/O devices (i.e., so it doesn't hijack the mouse's functionality, etc.).
Thx!

It's made for Photoshop and other drawing programs. It give you something to do with your left hand, while your right hand operates the mouse. Instructions for Photoshop CS2:
One of my graphics design customers said it was useful when he was painting with a pen and tablet. He could adjust the brush size, shape, color, etc without taking his hand off the "brush" pen.
Disclaimer: I just make such things work. I don't use them.
It's made to work with a mouse so that's unlikely.

My left hand is on motion controller so I'd need to grow a *third* :-/
I can't see much use in other apps. ISTR it was "configurable" but most (generic) *apps* aren't!
[Same problem applies to motion controller -- though you wouldn't expect it to be used in most apps!]Well, maybe I'll install it on a machine, see if I can make it *do* anything productive, then (assuming big fail) roll back to the preinstall configuration...
