Hi,
my name is Qeric Koten,
and I've been working on the RBT - Right 'Bove Touch design over the past 5 years.
The RBT design has provoked many reactions in the gaming peripherals community, mostly from loyal fans of other brands, mostly negative.
Yet, like Michael Jackson once said: " If I think you're wrong, then I must prove I'm right."
I believe I have created a product unique enough to solve nearly all the problems that the traditional mouse design had bred.
So to clarify, the only thing RBT isn't designed to do: is for those who need to use the PC while standing up: retail associates, for instance, who need to be standing and greet customers all day wouldn't in vast circumstances be needing to use the rabbit.
(I'm assuming the worker is always standing up during work shift)
The rabbit (RBT Rebel Real) is designed for those of us who spend many hours a day sitting in front of a computer, and feeling miserable discomforts caused by a conventional mouse.
I've gone through many obstacles to have the RBT Rebel Real 1.112 manufactured, and now it's up to you guys to decide whether or not to attempt your future a bit differently.

Is there any support for MacOS. I'd like to replace my magicmouse2 with something more ergonomic.

when you receive it, please give a at least 2 days of uninterrupted usage, and refrain from using other mouses so that your hand will adapt. Also here's link for software: https://uploadfiles.io/ns2pe

The connectivity options would suggest otherwise though.

Hi Qeric, interesting mouse design. Two Amazon review analyzers are saying that your reviews are fake. Do you have any response to that?

there are only 4 review total: they are 2 from Indiegogo backers, 2 from Giveaways in 2017 & 2018. I asked them to write a review of their personal experience from using the RBT Rebel. A couple of backers recently have tried but told us it's not permitted to write up reviews on Amazon anymore. You can look up who these people are, they're not fakes.

How does it compare to a vertical mouse?

I can only say what I know: if you adapt to the rabbit, there's a little chance you'll ever go back.

If I may, I'd like to suggest you release a non-glossy version of it as well. To me at least, that glossiness seems somewhat off-putting.

we'll consider it in future designs. Thanks!
