twiddler"tke natural evolution of mouse and keyboard

The twiddler is a pocket-sized mousepointer plus a full-function keyboard in a

single unit that fits neatly in either right or lefthand. It plugs into both keyboard and serialports on IBM-compatible PC's and works withDOS or Microsoft Windows 3.0 software. Com-bining major innovations in pointer and key-board technology, the twiddler is designed tobring renewed enjoyment to current computerusers and to attract newcomers to the world ofpersonal computing.

MOUSE:The twiddler's mouse pointer is based on a newconcept—a sensor, sealed inside the unit andimmune to the ravages of dust and dirt. To geta feel for how it works, make a fist with yourthumb on top. Now, extend your index finger;then rock your hand back and forth and tip itfrom side to side. If you were pressing the mousebutton with your thumb, the pointer on thescreen would follow the motion of your indexfinger! After you've tried it, you'll see how easyand natural it becomes.

KEYBOARD:The twiddler incorporates a keyboard which isradically new—an ergonomic keypad designedfor "chord" keying. This means you press one ormore keys at a time. Each key combinationgenerates a unique character or command. With12 finger keys and 6 thumb keys, the twiddlercan easily emulate the 101 keys on the standardkeyboard... plus many more. Imagine! A pocket-sized, touch-typable unit with more power thana full-sized keyboard.

The t^e Wler is a truly personal mouse and key-bcafct I hat goes with you just about anywhere.
