'Any fool can be uncomfortable', as the old army saying goes, and it's certainly easy enough to find yourself aching after a lengthy tour of keyboard and mouse duty. But it doesn't have to be like that. To mark RSI Awareness Week, we've compiled a roundup of alternative input devices that you could use to reduce your chances of getting RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury).

Why not choose a more ergonomic keyboard, a better pointing device than the mouse -- or even speak directly into your PC? Read our reviews to find out which product will suit you best.

Check ZDNet UK's RSI Special Report for all the news, advice, reviews and downloads you need to stay healthy and free of Repetitive Strain Injury.
