When looking for a mouse, some people look for something sleek like the Apple Magic Mouse. Others look for something ergonomic. Then there are people that look for something they can just play with all day. Introducing the G-Point.
Ya. I know. I was kind of speechless too. *shakes head*. I wonder what people will come up with next. Wireless vibrators that shake at the beat of a song? Oh wait…

Mad Catz has either created the first prototype for a small Cylon or a very bad ass looking gamer mouse. Sadly, its the later. The new completely Mad Catz designed gamer mouse, R.A.T. (Really Awesome Technology), will be shipping to stores this Spring.
“Cyborg is best known for ergonomic and fully adjustable flight sticks, gaming mice and keyboards. The new mouse range incorporates the same market leading design principles and applies them to gaming mice. For the first time ever on a mouse, the key points of contact between the gamer’s hand and the mouse are fully adjustable allowing it to be customized for any grip preference” commented, Darren Richardson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mad Catz. “The Cyborg mouse range was developed entirely in house and I believe they are the most comfortable gaming mice you’ll ever use. Besides, they just look cool!”
There are 4 different R.A.T.s to choose from. They give each mouse model a number and each have their own number of features. In my opinion they should just market it them as leet, pro, basic, nub.
Cyborg R.A.T. 9 Gaming Mouse
Cyborg R.A.T. 7 Gaming Mouse
Cyborg R.A.T. 5 Gaming Mouse
Cyborg R.A.T. 3 Gaming Mouse
Apple loves their multi-touch technology. Welcome their newest mouse. Just as I suspected, the age of Apple nipple foundling type mice are gone. While kind of fun to play with, for some, it had to leave. Now, scrolling is done just like a trackpad on MacBooks. The mouse also has gesture capabilities for swiping back and forth. It connects via Bluetooth, requires (2) two AA batteries, and costs $69 (by itself or free with a new Mac Mini). It will be available at the end of this month and would be a great gift to me when I walk up to your door with my candy bag saying “Trick or Apple Multi-Touch Mouse!”

Yes, the title is correct. Philip are launching a frankenstein of a mouse which will basically cover all the mousing scenarios you can think of. First up it’s a bluetooth mouse, but the problem with BT mice is that they run out of juice, so when that happens just plug in the USB and it’ll operate as a wired mouse. Ok that’s not that revolutionary I admit, but what about this? Philips has done away with a scroll wheel/ball and have gone straight for an integrated touch pad. They call it the 360° TouchControl sensor, but it’s simply a small touch pad mounted on top of the mouse. So whatever your scenario, including presenting using the touch pad in thin air, this mouse should see you true. It’s not even that bad looking. Should that tickle your fancy, you’ll be available to pick up a Bluetooth notebook mouse SPM9800 across Europe for the princely sum of $80 odd soon.
