Right -- the wrist rest I have is actually part of a 2-piece mouse pad I already owned.
The difference with the Apple Magic Trackpad vs. a conventional mouse is that you never have to move your wrist at all -- only your fingers. And you can just glide them over the glass surface -- you don't have to rotate a physical object, as with a trackball. (The surface is still clickable, though, which for me is key. I'm not a fan of "tap to click" -- I do want a tactile response when clicking.) Cheers, - DJA ----- WEB: http://www.secretsocietymusic.org On 7 Apr 2011, at 8:46 PM, David W.
