Ask HN: Carpal Tunnel Recommendations?

I'm having a bit of carpal tunnel. I had it several years ago and I found these exercises which seemed to help a lot: http://www.eatonhand.com/hw/ctexercise.htm

I'm going to do them again, but I'm wondering if HN has any mouse/keyboard/pads/other suggestions. I already have an elevated monitor so I'm good on that front. I'm currently using the standard Apple external keyboard of a couple years ago and a pretty generic Dell mouse.

Edit: Should add that the pain is only in my right wrist/hand (mouse hand) and I think a large degree of it maybe related to the mouse - I spend a lot of time scrolling with my middle finger for example. I'm considering the Apple Magic Trackpad
