<![CDATA[Device Injuries]]>Well... My right pointing finger hurts now because of my constant tapping on the touchpad (sorta mouse on laptibidops) plus I guess additional factors...
Shall I tap with another finger?

I must be furiously old-fashioned. The only device injuries I seem to get come from not being as careful as I should be around power tools.

The last incident at least wasn't too bad-- I was using a Roto-Zip bit in my Dremel Motor-tool (advertized speed around 30,000 rpm) and got the tip a little too close to my finger. Fortunately it only just barely touched and I only got a slight nick out of it (really slight, if I didn't know it had touched no one would know) but--- that's my recent "device injury" story.

Even then your wrists' movements are rather limited*:P*

My thumbs hurt because of typing in phone.

Sue the phone maker.

That is not the case, it is not phone maker's fault, it is mine.

(Actually, I use a Logitech trackball m580 - I couldn't stand that there was no way to do a "middle click" with the trackpad.)
