NuLooq Not Bad

I needed to download newer software than came with the device because of a recent upgrade to OSX10.5. The device is either more limited than I thought it would be, or its real power remains hidden. I still can't get it to change my brush size in CS3, which is like the main thing it's touted as being able to do. It is, however, the BEST way to make one's way around Google Earth.

Well...

I like the idea of this product, but it has no support for the most recent Adobe products that I wanted to use it for, and I've not developed a habit of using it. So it's just a nice light effect for my office.

I have a windows xp machine, and this nulooq was not that easy to set up on it. I had to unplug it and put it back in, because it kept scrolling downward. In photoshop CS2, it worked okay for panning and zooming. The brush adjustments for the touch-sensitive tool tuner at the top was not working. The little dialog would come up while in photoshop, that displays the brush size. It would change as I tune the dial, but the brush itself doesn't change. Also, the buttons along the top are very firm, not easy to push, and make a loud click sound when they engage.

I bought the 3Dconnexion SpaceNavigator around the same time, but it didn't have Photoshop support, until now.

I recommend the latter product because has more functionality (more application support), whereas 8 months later, the NuLooq still hasn't released any additional support for 2nd and 3rd party applications. The 3D SpaceNavigator has CS2, CS3 support, as well as a windows picture viewer extension, an Acrobat extension, and along with support for many 3D apps. Plus it supports Macro programming, Nulooq doesn't.

Great design, solid execution, flexible - a great alternative tool.

This is a gem of an input device if your expectations include programmable functionality across programs but you don't need an advanced graphics program controller. The NuLooq is a departure from much of the crap that's on the market that don't offer a leap over the flimsy keypads and wowie-zowie mice out there that are so early 2000s.. Instead, it's a flexible, alternate-hand device that actually DOES add functionality to your setup. Right out of the box, the heft of the unit distinguishes it from much of the other stuff.
The key, though, is to invest the time to program it, and then to actually use it. It's great for keyboard shortcuts, and if you invest the time to uncover them for each of your most-used programs, you'll be happy you did. Tip: log your settings in a table or text file, as I did, which serves as both a user reference and a backup in case you lose your preference file. The programming interface (for Mac at least) is well-designed.
I would buy this product again in a second.
