Hi all! Like the topic says I am looking for alternatives to using the mouse/keyboard because my wrists are quite strained from prolonged usage. I have gotten a pretty decent chair/table/etc but I would like to minimize any possible strain to my wrists as well.

So far from looking online I have found that the two main alternatives seem to be a pen-type mouse and a graphics tablet. I've also found some kind of weird-looking mice (can't remember the brand name now) that look like Daleks from Doctor Who...but not really what I am looking for. Pen and tablet seem ok.

I still have questions though so I hope you guys can help me out here!

1. Do the pen and tablet connect to the PC through USB? Are there wireless variants?

2. Any good brands to recommend? I heard Wacom is ok?

and most important...

3. Where to buy them in Singapore? I don't want to get ripped off. :)

Basically I am looking for an input device that I can lean back and use, further away from the monitor. For gaming/recreation I use my TV as another monitor, so the further away I can be, the better for my wrists and eyes.

Any help will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
