Whats the biggest downside to trying an AlphaGrip?
Other than the monetary cost, one can argue that the biggest downside is the learning curve. It takes about 30 hours of use to achieve a productive typing speed. But once you make the commitment to learn how to use the AlphaGrip, you’ll see that it was worth the effort. If you try to do any real work with an AlphaGrip during the first two weeks, you won’t be too productive. In fact, you will probably reduce your productivity by the amount of time and effort you put into learning to use a Grip. Think of it as a daily one-hour mental workout; exercising your brain instead of your bicep. After a month, you will develop muscle memory using using your Grip will no longer be a workout; it will be a pleasure. Nevertheless, the biggest downside may be the investment of time, money and mental energy required to learn to use an AlphaGrip.
