I heartily recommend the Comfort Point "gliding wrist support" product,
which cradles your mouse-hand's wrist in a foam-lined support that slides on
its own pad. [dunno 'bout lefties...]
Bought it for $20 at a local computer store.
On their web site, http://www.comfortpoint.com , are links to vendors, etc.
