Wrist pads

I have an external keyboard hooked up to my notebook. Lately, I have been looking at wrist pads so it is more comfortable to type (and more ergonomic).

Do you guys have any particular recomendations/ideas of a wrist pad I should look at?

I have been looking at this one from Best Buy:

Thanks for your help

 

Chaz,

I heard that the beanbags ones are better. They provide more movement and support. They also don't wear out as fast. Here is a link to what they look like, but I wouldn't recommend that style for you.

I guess mouse wrist pad is also in this category? I just wanted to say that I use a similar product for a mouse only and it really helped. I can even feel my pinky now! It is filled with some kind of a gel I guess. Feels and looks like a silicone boob! (can I use this word? do you mind? did I break any rule about nice words?)
I also plan to find one of those keyboard pads.

Cheers,

 

USAF - yes, I don't think that style would flow well. Thanks for the suggestion. It looks like Best Buy has one that I can look at:

ikovac - LOL - yeah you can say that, I don't care.

I have a nice gel mousepad - this one here:

Got it about six months ago, working great, and it definitely helps, I agree.

 

I prefer the beanbag ones because:

If it breaks open it is just little "beans," the gel ones would get my cats sick, and get everything sticky. They also break open after alot of use.

 

I'm going to go with the bean bag one, I'll post my thoughts after I get it sometime tonight.

Thanks again,
Chaz

 

Well I finally went to Best Buy. Got the Wrist pad - the bead one.

Working great so far, very comfortable.

 

Yeah, I love them, I could never go back to the gel ones.
