I've used this mouse off and on for about four years, on Windows XP, Mac OS X, and Ubuntu Linux (various versions). If any software came with it I threw it out - it's a USB mouse, after all. The difference in wrist and forearm comfort is significant. I'll occasionally switch to a traditional mouse for greater control when doing design work, but otherwise it suffices. I miss having a scroll wheel, and the secondary button (on the grip itself) is a bit sensitive, sometimes issuing a double click, but the minor gripe is worth it. I've experienced no thumb pain as at least one reviewer noted.

I purchased one for work and after a year or so I had to have one for home. I knit all the time and want to take care of my hands. Make sure you get the right size. I had the large one for a short time and the reach for the thumb was not natural. Otherwise once you get used to clicking the correct side of the button it is smooth and I have very little hand fatigue.

If you've got wrist or hand problems this mouse changes the ergonomics completely. Fortunately my hand and wrist problems got better. I switched the left and right keys on the mouse and changed my position relative to where the mouse was located. I used this mouse a few times and it works. If you need something ergonomically different from the traditional mouse, this is one pretty good choice.
