The latest Mouse : Microsoft Touch Mouse


Microsoft Touch Mouse, which promises not just a laser mouse but also a multi-touch enabled touchpad. Smartphones have hugely increased our appreciation of touch-sensitive interfaces. Microsoft's new Touch Mouse is very similar in design to the Magic Mouse. It looks like a pretty typical wireless mouse, though one shorn of its scroll wheel. It uses Microsoft's Bluetrack technology, which means it'll track your motions on pretty much any surface. A switch on the base lets you switch off the mouse to conserve battery life, both handy features for those who want to use the Touch Mouse on the move.

The Microsoft Touch Mouse has a simple black matte plastic structure that works for both right- and left-handed users and distinguishes its left and right only buttons only by a small slit running down its middle. On the bottom of the mouse, there's a slot for storing the wireless USB dongle when toting it around. Just plug the dongle into one of your PC's USB ports and turn on the mouse. The Touch Mouse is programmed for right-handed users, but you can swap the button orientations using the Microsoft Mouse driver software and You can also disable the touch functions within this software if you wish. The Touch Mouse utilizes Microsoft's BlueTrack tracking technology, which lets the mouse track your movements on a wider array of desk surfaces.
