Mmmm bit of a touchy subject and I am not sure if it is exactly right to put it here yet I didnt know where else to get info.  Unfortunetly a relative of mine had her right arm amputated following a terrible accident earlier in the year, though she is fine now, was devistated to learn she cannot furfill her dream of being a gaming developer (she was probably more into bf2 than any of us lol).

So my question is, is there any devices that emcompass a mouse (touch pad) into the keyboard, she can technically use the traditional moust keyboard config but its a real pain in the arse as she put's it.  Just wondering if such a product is in existance because it make things a lot easier for her and I was thinking it be a nice christmass present .  Basically something like a laptop keyboard that can be used on a desktop.  My great thank's to anyone who can find anything

Crazy thought but she could try the touchpad on a laptops keyboard.

Use her thumb to mouse look and the rest of her fingers in the keys around here.

It would be hard but I guess she will get used to it. Or a sore thumb I do not know.

I've seen keyboards for Media Centre PCs that have a touchpad. I think it was a Dell (to go with their system), but there may be third-party ones like Logitech or something.

I know there's some more that are probably better.


That must totally suck to lose an arm. I don't think I would be able to handle anything like that.
