Editors picks: It’s all in the laptop wrist rests

More users are working away from the office, so ergonomics on the road is becoming a hot-button issue. Computer Intelligence Inc. is shipping two models of Intelligels, which are wrist wrests for notebook PCs. The SoftGEL has a polyurethane gel which is designed to give a soft supportive feel, while the SoftFOAM is a Lycra nylon-covered rest injected with a soft foam on a rubber non-skid base. Computer Intelligence says the supports keep users’ hands cooler and one size fits all. In case colour is important to you, the SoftGEL is available in lime green, red, orange, blue, pink and black. The SoftFOAM, is available in black, grey and navy blue.

The cameras are available in 1, 2, 3 and 5 megapixel versions.
