that looks totally sweet, and it works with OSX. Now the only this is it can be charged without putting it into the slot because my little 12" pb doesnt have an expansion slot

Fraid I've not, but I do love that Flash video on the website.

That looks pretty slick, wonder how well it would work and how practical it would be...anyway good find im sure alot of 15" powerbook users would be very interested,

I feel it is too thin for my taste. I think my hand gets hurt after a few hours of use.... I prefer I go with full feature Logitech mouse which is very comfortable to use. For on the road use, I have the notebook mouse (MS Laser notebook mouse and Logitech V500, and a few other Logitech notebook mice); but, at home, I prefer using the fully ergonomically shaped mouse. I have also started using Wacom tablet on the regular basis with one of my Macs (because it is better for my hands) along with my Tablet PC.

I've seen it before and it seems sooo cool... but I don't know how ergonomic is is. I have wrist problems as it is.

 

[senseibiz]

looks very uncomfortable to me......

based on the flash movie alone i want one!

Very clever idea. And very, very nice commercial.

I wonder about the ergonomics too. But very clever.

Wow, that looks pretty sweet! Now I really want to see what it feels like in my hand.

"which is equipped with a PC slot"

I haven't seen any PC slots in recent Macs... That's where it needs to be plugged in, to charge... So I doubt it'll work in Macs.

I find it ugly. But good on them for redesinging the mouse.

I thought the PB 15" and 17" have them. iBook 12", PB 12", and MBP need not apply, though. Although, I guess you could get an external PC card USB drive or something like that.

Can't be much worse than the Mighty Mouse.....

 

[joepunk]

Sweet!

I'll take one even though I am not to sure how well I could handle it for several hours at a time.

 

[TsuaSai]

I have been looking for a new mouse.. Might just have to try this one.

 

[gammamonk]

That's cool, but it's won't work with Mac Book Pro. I use my PC Card slot already-- but if you didn't it would be cool.

 

[easymac800g4]

that was a really good idea
i wouldnt be surprised to see this company start letting pc makers include this as a BTO option

 

[arcobb]

I've seen it... and I've been thinking about picking one up for a while now!

 

[mfacey]

Looks interesting. Like the others here I'm not quite sure how easy it will be to use considering its shape.

Another thing. It charges whilst its in the PC-card slot. That's fine, but that also means that you have to have it in there when you're computer is ON in order to it to charge. So whilst it's doing that you're back to your trackpad... hmmm

For guy like me that isn't a big issue. My Laptop is my only computer and it is on a lot at home and would have a chance to charge. I think it could work great!

I never got the appeal of mini-mice for laptops, is it so you can use it on the dead space next to the trackpad? Or just so it's light in your laptop bag?

More to be light in your laptop bag. I would think that it would put some serious scratches on your laptop otherwise.

Eh, since you're already carrying a five-pound laptop, I'd think that adding a "bulky" normal sized mouse would be worth the ergonomic comfort for me at least. :/

 

[dylomel]

that mouse looks really convenient....except ibook doesn't have that slot for storing
