Troubleshooting
The Evoluent VerticalMouse 4 Small Wireless is for hands smaller than about 7 inches or 178 mm long from the tip of the middle finger to the wrist crease. To see if VM4S fits you, download a full-size pdf by clicking here, print it, and put your hand on it. If your hand is the same size or smaller than the drawing, VM4S may fit you better than the regular VM4R.
Using Evoluent Vertical Mouse, your hand is in an upright neutral posture and that generally avoids forearm twisting.
The shape is thoughtfully sculpted for uncompromised comfort and easy-to-reach programmable buttons. No finger contortions are needed to operate the buttons.
An extra-wide lip along the bottom edge prevents the little finger from rubbing the desk.
The thumb rest has been reshaped to provide even more comfort over earlier versions.
An approved mouse of University of California at Berkeley
The Evoluent VerticalMouse 2 (an earlier model identical in concept) was evaluated in 2007 by a team at the health services clinic in UC Berkeley, including medical doctors, physical therapists, ergonomists, and administrators. It was found to be comfortable, easily adapted to, and promote a neutral wrist and forearm posture. It was the only vertical type mouse approved for staff use within UC Berkeley and for sale on the campus store at that time.

Top-mounted LEDs show through the chrome thumb rest to indicate selected pointer speed including extra low (XL), low (LO), MD (medium), to high (HI).
The bottom thumb button provides greatly extended functionality when used with the included driver.
The logo is pure eye-candy. The illumination turns off when the system is in sleep mode to conserve notebook battery power.
Pointer speed controls on the side allow convenient adjustment without even releasing your grip from the mouse.
