Berlin, Germany — Amidst the serious 4K and OLED HDTVs and myriad Windows 8 gear, here at the IFA electronics show which officially starts today many a goofy product can be found. Such as, a mouse that's also a scanner...
Summer's in high gear and you know what that means? Yep, it's time to turn up the AC and catch up on all those games you've been neglecting because you've been so busy hitting the books. Razer's kicking off the summer with a new gaming mouse that's built for hands of all sizes; big and small, righties and lefties.
Computer mice come in a zillion different shapes and sizes, but it's getting really ridiculous. First a calculator and scale get shoved into a mouse and now LG stuffs a scanner into one? How on earth does that even fit in there?
So this is what a manly mouse looks like. As part of LG's Cube Competition 2010, Nitin Mane's "Mouse for Men" is a re-imagining of the everyday computing input device.
We all want to cut the clutter on our desks. Nowadays, we often find ourselves with too many computer peripherals. Now, you can scratch another one off your list. The Chameleon X-1 is a mouse with a full gamepad underneath.
Mice have traditionally been two-dimensional creatures, offering an easy way to navigate around flat and boring desktops. Now that 3D is a new buzzword and everybody (and their parents) are cruising around Google Earth, it's time to take advantage of all those extra degrees of freedom.
Has history taught us nothing? Round shaped computer mice are terribly unergonomic. Apple's original circular mouse for the iMac was hated precisely because of its shape. Asus, makers of all things Eee is resurrecting the old "puck-mouse" design and updating it with wireless and touch.
Are you a PC user feeling left out by Apple's trackpad-mouse hybrid? Well, the new Cue Multitouch mouse is here to bring trackpaddy goodness to your mouse.
