Is that a mouse in your PC card slot?


Mogo MouseBTThis slick new mouse was featured on TUAW today. It's a Bluetooth mouse which slots neatly inside a laptop's PC card slot. The mouse also recharges via the slot. Finally a use for that wasted space in my Powerbook! The mouse has a small kickstand which flips out, and apparently the buttons are on the bottom of the mouse, so that pressing down the body causes a click (the lower end of the mouse is the front). It doesn't look particularly comfortable, but is still seems to be a great idea for those of us who aren't so keen on trackpads and have an unused PC card slot. The mouse is set to be introduced next month at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

Via TUAW, who had it from Engadget, who got it from Uber-Review, who give credit to GearLog (even though the article appears to have vanished from GearLog). Don't you just love blogs? :) In a strange twist of fate, GearLog is a blog from the editors of DigitalLife magazine :shock:
