Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 Impressions

Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000Sweet Mother of Pearl…what is it with companies and these ridiculously long product names. Let me tell you, there’s a reason why “Flickr” is popular, and it’s probably because it’s easy to say. Now that I’ve gotten this out of the way, on to Microsoft’s new ergonomic desktop mouse.

Strangely enough, it wasn’t that long ago that Microsoft’s mice were considered to be the most ergonomic that you could get, but in reality, while they were more comfortable to hold, they were never truly ergonomic. I’ve been using computers from a young age, and as a result, I have a fair amount of RSI built up in my wrists, mostly the right wrist. I can’t use a non-ergonomic keyboard for long without experiencing pain, and that’s why although I’ve tested a great many keyboards in the past, I keep coming back to Microsoft’s Natural series of keyboards. Finally, they put a mouse through the same ergonomic design process as their keyboards and what came out was one of the goofiest looking mice ever made.

IOGear Releases Germ-Free Laser Mouse

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Peripherals

Laser MouseEDIT: See our video featuring the IOGear Nano Shield Germ-Free technology.

It’s a clean freak’s dream. IOGears just released its ergonomic Laser Mouse, which is coated with a Titanium dioxide and Silver nano-particle compound. This deactivates up to 90% of nasty germs to prevent their propagation on the mouse’s surface. Laser Mouse uses VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser), with the claim that it provides 30 times more tracking power than an optical sensor.

Available in wireless (with a 6-foot range), plug-in, and travel models, you won’t have to worry about germs at work either. Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, Laser Mouse is available for $39.95 and uses two AAA batteries (not included.)
