Overview
The Twiddler2 provides the same input to
your computer as both a conventional keyboard and a
mouse. To do this the Twiddler2 uses twelve keys on
the front and, on top, four keys plus an IBM
Trackpoint
®
. The top keys are for your thumb; your
other four fingers operate the front keys; and the red
Trackpoint under your thumb performs the pointing
function of a mouse. The Twiddler2 is designed to be
operated by only one hand. The hand not holding the
Twiddler2 is free for other tasks (like holding a tele-
phone or a cup, keeping your place when typing a list,
jotting a note on paper, etc.)
The Strap
There is a soft fabric strap that extends from a
slot in the side of the Twiddler2's case and attaches to
a Velcro
®
pad on the bottom. This strap goes around
the back of your hand and holds the Twiddler2 in posi-
tion for typing or pointing. When you receive your
Twiddler2, the strap will be set up for right-hand use,
but it may be easily readjusted for left-hand use.
Changing to Left-Hand Use
To adjust the Twiddler2 for left-hand use, first
remove the strap from its Velcro fastener on the bottom.
