Form-shifting Moldable Mouse

moldable mouse

Ever wish you could mold your mouse into any shape you pleased? Well, there is a new concept, winner of the Red Dot Design Award 2007, called the Moldable Mouse, developed by Lite-On Technology that will let you do just that. The mouse itself is made out of clay covered with polyurethane and nylon which allows the user to transform the mouse into just about any shape you may want. The base of the mouse houses the electronics and the batteries and the buttons aren’t conventional ones, but RFID stickers, this way the user can place them wherever his/her heart desires. Unfortunately this is still a concept but hopefully a manufacturer will pick up the design and start mass-producing this ergonomically-friendly device.

Laser cordless mouse for notebooks

by Adam Berger on Jul 7, 2006 at 01:28 PM

 Logitech V450 Laser Cordless Mouse for NotebooksWe all know, or are told to believe, that laser mice are much more accurate than optical mice - - and that we need them for our day to day computing. While this may not be true for only $49.99 (or less on other sites) the Logitech V450 laser cordless notebook mouse seems like a great deal.

Laser claims to deliver smoother scrolling and accuracy (though my optical seems to do a great job clicking links). Some people need more precision, but I doubt they will be using a wireless notebook ‘mini mouse’. The V450 does also have some built in ergonomics to make it better for you hands as well as great battery life, and on/off button, a battery indicator light, 2.4 GHz cordless signal, side-to-side scrolling + zoom, and a integrated spot for the receiver.
