Palm Pre Information & Updates
Palm just introduced their next-gen smartphone, the Palm Pre, and next-gen operating system, Palm webOS. Gadgetell's got the latest Pre and webOS information and news for you right here.
OpenOffice, in partnership with WarMouse have unveiled the OpenOfficeMouse. And with that, after I realized that this was not a joke of a product, and after I finished gazing at the uglier than necessary design, I then realized that this is most likely overkill for most users.
That said, the OpenOfficeMouse has a whopping 18 buttons, each of which are user programmable. To begin with, I am not sure I could even remember half of that amount. But I am sure that someone will find that appealing.
Still, aside from the 18 buttons, the OpenOfficeMouse also has a clickable scroll wheel, an analog Xbox 360-style joystick and 512k of built-in flash memory. Bottom line, they are touting this mouse as being able to take care of all your needs for everything from launching desktop applications, using OpenOffice and even playing World of Warcraft.
Of course, all that power comes with a price, which in this case is $74.99. As of now, nothing has been announced in terms of when you will be able to make a purchase, but on the positive side that should give you some time to save up the necessary cash. And despite my poking fun, in a strange way I am kind of interested in trying one of these out.
