They even make it easy to create your own macros. Say, for instance, I wanted to click a button and automatically open my favorite website, nvnews.net.
Select the FireFox profile.
Right-click on a header from the left side
Select "Add New Macro"
Select the "Program/File/URL Launch Macro" radio button.
Name the macro "nVnews".
Click the "Finish" button.
Select "URL Launch" radio button.
Type in www.nvnews.net in the "Program or File to Open" text box.
Click "Accept Changes" button.
Drag the nVnews macro from the left side to any key you want to assign it to.
Create Your Own Macro
These are 10 steps that will become second nature to anyone who uses this product for longer than 15 minutes. If you are having problems with recording
your own macros, check out their forums. There was an issue with trying to create a JavaScript macro
for use in FireFox. I was trying to create a key where I could post to my del.icio.us, and the Ergodex Manager kept telling me that the URL wasn't formed
correctly. I did a search in their forum, but couldn't find anything on the subject. It could be just something that I do not understand, and most people
would not want to bind JavaScript functions anyway.
CONCLUSION
The Ergodex DX1 is easily programmable, responsive, and infinitely adjustable. This is the coolest device I have ever had the pleasure to use. There's
nothing else on the market quite like it. The price tag is a little steep at $149 at CrazyPC, but this device is worth every single penny, and then some.
This product has earned the coveted nVnews Grand Slam award. Special thanks to Nick over at CrazyPC
and Ergodex for providing the sample. Pick one up over at CrazyPC.
