New Microsoft Optical Mouse
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "HARDWARE" @ 12:00 PM
"Modern design’s primo gun-for-hire Phillipe Starck has worked up a USB optical mouse for Microsoft that cunningly hides a scroll wheel in the coloured line that bisects it, and supposedly includes the requisite two buttons (looks from the picture like the whole left and right segments would move when you click). Release date is listed as September 15."
It is about time thay Microsoft's Hardware devision put out another cool device. The last one that I truly liked was their Natrual Keyboard Pro, the one that they so wickedly discountinued. Apparently those units now sell on Ebay for as much as $300. Anyways, this mouse looks very cool. I have been absolutely addicted to my Logitech MX700 (didn't think I would go to any other mouse), but I would certainly be willing to give this one a shot, just based on the coolness factor. English translation of the article is here. What mice do all of you use?
