From The Show Floor - IOGEAR Introduces Bluetooth Mini Mouse

by , 4:30 PM EDT, July 13th, 2004

Despite Apple being one of the first companies to embrace Bluetooth, there still seems to be a lack of compelling peripherals that take advantage of this low-speed wireless technology. Perhaps the good folks at IOGEAR can help change that with the introduction of the company's rechargeable Bluetooth Mini Mouse.

The mouse comes with an on/off switch to help save battery life. To charge the batteries, one can use the included cable that plugs into any USB port. Unlike some other products, the mouse can be used while it is being charged.

The unit features optical technology and 800 dpi resolution. The Bluetooth Mini Mouse is available immediately for US$69.95. Iogear also tells us to expect more Bluetooth products in the coming months.

Subject: Bluetooth Mouse

I have a Belkin Bluetooth mouse and I love it. Unfortunately there's no software to program the additional buttons - it has the usual two buttons & scroll wheel plus one side button. USB Overdrive, which I've used for other mice, doesn't recognize it. However, the scroll wheel & right button work correctly without any software.
