My wife bought me one these yesterday. I have to say I will never use a mouse again. This thing is amazing.

 

It's taking me time to learn all the gestures, but, so far it makes things so much easier. 2 fingers up or down to scroll pages. 2 fingers right or left to go back or forward. 1 finger click. 1 finger hold to highlight text then release and right click menu pops up. That's only the tip of the iceberg. You can configure it to different things in different apps. Once I get my head around all the standard features I'll get into creating app specific.

 

I have tried trackpads in the past and never could get used to them. Now I don't know how I got along without one.

 

It's much easier on my wrist too.

That sounds really interesting. Too bad that it isn't compatible with Windows.

Microsoft will have to make the drivers for it like they did for Microsoft mouse and keyboards. Although the MS drivers haven't been updated in a while and don't even work on El Capitan.

I just bought the trackpad/keyboard connector from your link.

Sweet!

I hope MS does make drivers for it. I would definitely use one of these.

I was reading the reviews and it seems that it does work with Windows. Several users said they use it in Windows. Some on Windows 7 and some on Windows 8. If it works on them it should work on Windows 10 also.

 

I'll test it out in my Windows 10 VM later today.

Let me know, Bob? I just may have to order one.

It looks like it will be right up my alley.:thumbsup:

If you have wrist or hand problems or arthritis like me it will be a God send. I've been using it all day to day and haven't had any pain and my scroll finger isn't locking up.

Sounds good, I have both arthritis and carpal tunnel.

After using this for a few days I have to say I don't know how I lived without a trackpad. I never really gave the trackpad on my laptop a chance. I always connected a mouse to it. Since I started using this I also started using the trackpad on my laptop. I was able to find software for Windows 10 for the trackpad that allows me to mimic most of the gestures of the Magik Trackpad 2. My hand doesn't hurt like crazy after long use and my fingers don't lock up.

 

I really don't know why it took me so long to realize how good trackpads really are. I would never go back to a mouse now.
