Review

Touch pads come as standard on most laptops these days, and you either love or hate them. This is a touch pad in a single unit for use with a desktop computer.

Touch pads require a very light touch, and enable all pointer functions to be carried out with just one finger.

They can take a little getting used to, but they can be used by people with very limited and weak mobility.
