Glad you like the mouse. We now have mouse pads available both as replacements
and upgrades. Unfortunately there is no bigger flex pad. The bigger pads have
aluminum backing which makes them much more expensive. One of the nice things
about the aluminum is you can set it on top of the A2000 or A3000 and hold it
in place by putting the monitor base over a corner. The pad now sticks straight
out in the air (off to right).
No longer do I worry about loosing the mouse pad in a pile of papers.

What I really want to do is get some sheets of mylar imprinted with the
proper pattern. Then I'd sell mouse pads by the square yard. ;-)
You could cover your desk with one and never have to worry. Except for finding
an open spot on your desk.
