The ornamental design for a “user interface device,” as shown and described.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a user interface device from above at any of the four upper corners, showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a side view thereof, from any of the four sides thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top and plan view thereof; and,

FIG. 4 is a perspective view thereof from below at any of the four lower corners.

In an example embodiment, the user interface device is for use with sound generating software running on a computer, such that different musical notes and sounds may be generated by compressing the device in different directions. Accordingly, when used in conjunction with a computer running suitable software, the device may also be regarded as a musical instrument. The device is for use in schools and hospitals, particularly suitable for use by younger children or as a learning or therapy aid for persons with physical or learning difficulties. Further information relating to the device may be found at the website www.skoogmusic.com. Videos of the device in use may be found at http://www.youtube.com/user/skoogmusic#p/u.
