Speaking of power, how long does a charge last?
Overall, this mouse seems pretty impractical. If this isn't cheap, I don't see very many people buying it. Novelty item anyone?
Edit: I suppose you could grab a USB Flash Drive and pretend it's that mouse. That should give you a pretty good idea of how this mouse would work out.
If I use it for five minutes I'm crippling my hand!
Seriously there is pain there!
So for what the hell is it good????
:wtf:
That sure is small, but is this new? I've seen this like 6months ago, maybe it was a prototype (or made by someone else).
Cramping palms, o-hoy!Post reported.
