With the exception of a few select programs where a mouse is indispensable, I'm a happy Magic Trackpad user for over 10 years now. No RSI ever.

- zukzuk 3y agoI developed pretty nasty tenosynovitis in my inner wrist from using a Magic Pad over a year. I even tried switching to using it with my left hand instead of my right, and eventually developed the same problem in the other wrist. It got bad enough I opted for cortisone injections. This was about 10 years ago. I’ve avoided Apple’s input devices since, opting for proper ergonomic keyboards and mice, with no further RSI thankfully.
