Solar powered, optical, RF wireless mouse.

Look like a pretty good mouse, and only $105 (http://www.dragonpc.co.nz/pmouse.htm) at Dragon PC (http://www.dragonpc.co.nz/pmouse.htm).

The funny thing is it wouldn't work for alot of you, cause you don't leave your computer enough to let it recharge.

Cellink's mouse = sux.

Move too fast and you loose trace of your on-screen pointer.

Connecting it to USB, WinXP or Win98 might not detect it on boot-up.

Drains battery like there's no tomorrow.

[Grrr!!]

I don't think that'd be much use. Seeing as though the part where that solar panel is is generally covered by my hand about 12 hours a day :p.

Solar powered !!! In a gamers room ??? Surely that would mean having to scratch all the black paint of the windows ???

:p

Primo place for that solar cell, too. That should get the OCNZ product of the year award. I know they knew it was gonna be covered when you put your hand on it, but c'mon, that's just top-notch engineering right there. You can probably generate more electricity from moving the mouse around, yeah, you could have a kinetic mouse like those Seiko watches!! Gamerz would charge it up in just 1 round of UT!!! :rolleyes:

[Grrr!!]

If they all used the same frequency, you could buy ten, and leave the rest in the windowsill. A bit of a pity that you'd have to keep swapping mice, but then at least you could use your comp all day.

It would be interesting at lans etc if they did use the same freq.

Maybe thats the solution to the power crises, put kinetic generators in games mice. KJ alone would probably power half of Christchurch.

Im sorry but Karna wouldn't do something as ridiculous as a kinetic generator mouse:o. and since you only have to think of moving the B**mS***g to get the pointer to move. What would be the point. How about putting a wind tunnel generator on thier face so the heavy breathing pron leechers do, powers thier pc?
:D
