Advice PLs: Large Hands-Small mice

[K103 ALBERNI -TR-]

Gamers, Need some advice for a gamer with Large hands using small mice. Is there a hand held controller for 'steam DOD'? the game ' options' for such is limited to movement only.
Is a Roller Ball mice my only option?? There must be something out there??

have you tried..... bigger mouses? I love logitech but i hate alot of their mouses because they are too big and or slanted. You might find the big honkin ones just the right size.

Hi GM, i am using a logtech Lx7, hand still goes crampy. like, have been to the box stores and seen the vast of name brands.

Are your hands too long or too wide? possibly both? Trac ball mice are traditionaly similar in size to the lx7 so the only thing you gais is what? you still have to click, you just move your thumb instead of the whole mouse. It sounds as if moving your fingers in tight spaces is exactly the problem - so that may not help.

I will keep my eye out for large mice I hope I stumble upon on.

Every try a mouse liek this? It looks big anyways. (I also saw mouses for long hands - I wasnt sure how big is big or in which direction, but I just did some yahoo searching)

Hi GM, yes indeed that is a fair size mice, by its ergo style the position for a hand seems to eliminate a grip or squeeze which i apply to conventional mice, i have the info on your post (fentek) and will contact them. thx again.

ALBERNI! I have the perfect mouse for you! unfortunately you can't have mine. lol. BUT, you can buy the same model!!

May I suggest the Logitech MX Revolution.

It is quite a beautiful mouse. large in size. rechargeable stand! wireless! (don't hate on wireless, this mouse is gr8 for gaming). It has a wheel where your thumb goes! I programmed that wheel for volume! and if you click the wheel it goes mute, on the side of the mouse there are 2 programmable buttons. Mine r programmed to minimize all windows, the other as CTRL+S for save.

it is pricey, but truly without question the most comfortable sleek functional mouse I have ever in my life owned.

I use the MX Revolution at work and at home. I have LARGE hands 9 1/2 inches tip of thumb to tip of pinky when spread. The MX is cool, but at times I wish I had a bigger mouse! It never "fills" my hand, so my hand is always arched. I bought the one for my job at Best Buy $100. Mine I got "refurbished" off eBay for like $40. The one from eBay didn't have the software, but I was able to use the software from my work one. Go to a store and try it, first. The laser has never given me any problems. I love the no-wires feature!! Only when the battery goes dead, does it "jump" around the screen. Hope this helps!!

as far as a controler like used for ps or xbox they are out there but the are not compatible with cs or dods
due to the fact if you use the d pad you walk side to side or front and back but can not spin therefor not able to turn around
