Love that the photo of the wrist mounted one shows an immediate usability issue; the scroll knobs are on the wrong side?

are they? Or is it being worn upside-down or on the wrong arm in the picture?

I don't think it's upside down, but looks like on the "wrong" arm, though that's debatable depending on handedness. The more I think about this though, this seems like only one of several fundamental issues with this thing :P

It’s funny. I am left handed but I have always worn a watch on my left arm. At some point, when I was told that was “wrong”, I tried putting it on my right wrist but I couldn’t deal with it.

I also mouse right handed because in the early days there was no such thing as an ergonomic mouse and it often wasn’t easy to change the settings to reverse the buttons. It does mean I can mouse and write at the same time.
