I've been curious about making a switch for ergonomics and just lack of space on my desk.
Do you recommend it for gaming? Any guidance on genres that do or don't work? I mostly play real time and turn based strategy games or point-and-click style games such as Diablo on my computer. I don't generally go in for twitchy FPSes, but I'd like the option.
Opinions on index vs. thumb?
How long was the adjustment period to get used to it?
Any recommendations on good ones to buy?
Are there any advantages I'm not thinking of besides just being better for my wrist?
Disadvantages besides, potentially, being less precise than a mouse?
Are there any tradeoffs with going wireless?
