does this tablet work well if you are left handed? (Some tablets specifically say they are universal left/right- which makes me think some are not.)

Yes it does! There's an option in the propoerties that'll let you choose lefty and you flip the tablet over so the buttons are on the right! I'm a lefty and I have no problems at all with my tablet.

I called FisherPrice about this directly as my child is a lefty. I was looking at this product as well as the Leap Frog Click Start which DOES accomidate little leftys. I was told that this was tested on lefthanded adults, but not necessarily left handed children. The tablet does not move to the other side of the keyboard and my chid would just have to reach across the keyboard to use it. I don't feel this is a natural way of holding her hand to write and would not be beneficial at all. I am opting for the competetive product for her this time.

Yes! It is Lefty friendly. There's a setting on the pen that allows you to switch it over for lefties! That way all the text on the screen isn't upside down.

I'm using it right now as a mouse (WITH THE PEN, NOT JUST THE FINGER AS A LAPTOP!). You just have to go under this tablet settings and set the first button as left button. DO NOT press the pen against the pad when using it as a mouse! Just hover it a few milimiters above the pad as if you were going to write on a piece of paper. Use mouse clicks as you normally do with a mouse inside the area.

It rotates left to right too. There is a joint right behind where the tablet sits that lets the tablet rotate. but the big joints only go forward and back. But you still get plenty of viewing and rotating from side to side.

A left-handed person can use it because with your left hand you still turn it clockwise, not counter clockwise. Actually never had anyone ask about left-hand use and this benriner has been around a long, long time and we have sold it for years and I am sure there have been left-handed users. Thank you.

Works fine with left hand. I am right-handed but go left for the mouse. This frees up my right hand so that I'm not constantly switching from pen to mouse and then back to pen. I also love that I can have my laptop a few feet away and am able to control it without having to stretch or lean over to reach for it.

yes it works great either left or right. I'm left handed, my wife is right and we both use this easily.

I don't believe it does. However, I am left handed and it works fine for me!

An update to Ice Cream Sandwich came out in the fall from Samsung. This tablet is great for my needs but may not be good for someone else. It boils down to what size is a right fit for you? I've not had a single issue with this tablet personally. Any problem I've experienced has been the fault of an app I'm using.

Yes! I'm left handed and love mine. It is not designed for any particular "handedness." &#128516;

I have used this stylus with my tablet and it works just fine. I haven't had any issues using mine at all. Hope that helps.

If you order the custom version from Timbuk2, you can get it in a left handed version. However, the price is a bit higher depending on your configuration.

I'm currently working with a switched an Intuos gripper pen and a graphite table. I see thats not the tablet you're asking about but if you want to risk it - sometimes it works - in my case and sometimes not- like with Kristin who wrote in below. (but maybe that pen is stated as compatible? I didn't research it before I gave it a try!)

You can't stand it up and use it vertically, but it fits nicely in your hand (if you're right handed) if you want t use it vertically that way. The horizontal positioning is great. If you pull the bottom part off of the tablet, you can even connect the keyboard.

My husband and I are right handed, and this mouse has a slight slant to the right, but I tried it with my left hand and I don't see why it wouldn't work. It is wonderful, it's quiet and works real good, I love it. I hope this helps.
