Nexus Silent Mouse SM-7000B

The new Nexus Silent Mouse SM-7000B uses a patented Silent Switch technology, which is designed to emit zero noise whenever you click any of its buttons. This advanced 2.4G wireless optical mouse connects to your PC or laptop with a super small nano receiver and has a 1000/1600 DPI selection button. The Nexus Silent Mouse SM-7000B is powered by 2 x AA batteries. What’s more, it also has an adjustable DPI switch for you to select from 1000 DPI to 16000 DPI at the press of a button.

Microsoft’s Comfort Mouse 6000

We’ve seen some mice designed for the Twitter crew and we’ve seen some mice designed for gamers but how often is it that a hardware company (this time it’s Microsoft) comes out with a mouse that’s just plain old productive? The Comfort Mouse 6000 sounds like something you might see on a late night infomercial but it’s really just a solid little peripheral.
It’s just about the right size at 3 inches by 5 incches and is designed for right handed users only (sorry lefties). There are five customizable buttons which you can program for utility. In addition, there’s a detent scroll wheel which Microsoft promises is “effortless” and promotes optimal “accuracy.”

The Comfort Mouse 6000 also sports the company’s BlueTrack technology which “combines the power of optical with the precision of a laser.” This technology is supposed to allow you to easily use the mouse on a variety of surfaces.
Again, Microsoft chose to go the wired route instead of relying on batteries. It’s an interesting trend that I must say I like. I never thought have a mouse that runs on batteries was a good thing—no matter how long the battery life could be extended.
The mouse comes with a 3 year warranty but at $29 it’s easily replaceable if it breaks outside that (and ten dollars a year is not a bad price to pay for a mouse.)

Genius has new wireless mice for travelers

Genius, a name that has become familiar for those who budget friendly peripherals that work well enough for years on end without requiring an upgrade too soon.

This time around, we have a couple of wireless mice for your perusal, where they are the Traveler 6000 wireless mouse and Traveler 6000 Classic wireless mouse.

Now, Microsoft Truly has a Touch Mouse

Microsoft used to have the Arc Touch mouse, which is actually a travel mouse with a itty-bitty touch sensor, but this time its Touch Mouse is indeed a touch mouse in every sense of the word. Its entire top surface is a touch pad, which means the gadget can navigate using finger gestures and simply tapping on the top of the mouse. (Yes, just like the Magic Mouse by Apple.)

The mouse utilizes a 2.4GHz wireless dongle and BlueTrack technology, a type of sensor that works on most surfaces. The Microsoft Touch Mouse will hit authorized retail points in June 2011 for only US$79.99.
