Haven't posted in a long while, but had this question and figured what better place to ask than here. :)

First off, I'm a guy with pretty big hands, and I had bone graft surgery on my wrist about 8 years ago which is causing my wrist to wear down a little faster than it should. Since I use my computer all day every day at work and like to play some PC games too when I get home (mainly World of Warcraft, but a few others as well), I started looking for a solution. After talking to a few people they said one of the first things I should do is find a bigger mouse, because using a mouse that's too small can further aggrevate or even cause wrist problems. So begins my search.

I've been into the stores and I've checked online and I even bought the biggest damn mouse I could find (the Microsoft 6000 wireless), which still ain't that big. I'm trying to find out if there's a site out there where you can buy a laser mouse for a guy with big hands? Or maybe a place that specializes in orthopaedic mouses (mice?) or something.

The other alternative to special retailers or websites is just hearing if any of you know about products that fit this description that are being sold at normal retailers. I also wouldn't mind finding a keyboard made specifically to prevent wrist problems as well.

Thanks everyone for your help in advance!

Logitech MX518/G5/G7?
Optorite Laser Mouse?
Razer Diamondback?

As for the keyboard... there's supposed to be this perfectly natural keyboard... other AT members should be able to fill you in on that.

Yeah, I would also suggest a trackball unless you play FPS games, but it is still pretty good for WCIII.
