I'm assuming it's too heavy and has too much contact surface (so more friction), making it too hard to glide smoothly.
There's probably something with the position of the hand when you move the mouse as well. At least I seem to be moving mostly the wrist when I use my mouse, meaning that my hand and forearm are not always aligned; without this alignment, I feel there's more strain on the wrist when typing.
my imagined device has the hand a bit more vertical, which would give more leverage for moving the device around.
Could you do a thing with magnets where you have a special mousepad as well with the pad being all one pole pointing up and the device the same pole pointing down?
Also my imagined device would not need the full keyboard, just the full right side of a qwerty keyboard.
