Now I wonder how complicated it would be to implement a pointing stick (aka track point aka the red nipple from the Thinkpads). I think it has the same benefits as this circle track point with an even smaller footprint.
- 3np 2y agoI've seen quite a few people do something similar with repurposed PSP controllers since a few years ago. Wouldn't be surprised if there's something more purpose-made available by now, if you search around.

- PetitPrince 2y agoThis is so cool. Thanks !
- dustincoates 2y agoAs was said in another comment, the UHK has a trackpoint option, which is what I chose for my right module. I highly recommend it--it's replaced mouse usage for me in most situations. (I.e., any time that I'm not doing something only with the mouse.)
- jerlam 2y agoI liked the trackpoint on my Thinkpad keyboard, but with so much dead space on most ergonomic keyboards compared to a laptop, the benefits of such a small pointing device are lost.
