Thumbs up Laptop Users: New Space Saving and Convenient Mouse - MoGo Mouse

http://www.newtonperipherals.com/Mogo_Products.htm

This mouse stores in an empty PC Slot. Yes it's that small.

What is MoGo MouseBT?
MoGo MouseBT is a business-card sized, Bluetooth-enabled mouse that stores and recharges neatly inside…that’s right, inside…your laptop computer’s PC card slot when it’s not being used. MoGo MouseBT is a technologically advanced wonder, featuring patent-pending optics and a system that automatically levers the mouse up into your hand as you work. With no batteries to replace, the MoGo MouseBT recharges in less than an hour in the PC card slot of your laptop.
Who’s MoGo MouseBT meant for?
MoGo MouseBT is specifically designed for road warriors who hate carrying around full-sized, bulky mice, but who also despise laptop trackpads and trackpoints. MoGoMouseBT provides them with a solution to their problem, making it easier for them to work on the road.

What’s so special about MoGo MouseBT?
Other mice, even those meant for road warriors, just don’t cut it. Mini-mice (the “walnut shells”) get lost in your hand and are difficult to maneuver, and the ideas of carrying a full-sized mouse defeats the entire purpose of mobility on the go, making MoGo MouseBT a natural.

i can't seem to find the PC slot on my mac

either way, i would have a hard time spending 70 bucks on a mouse, i've been using my laptop as a desktop replacement for almost a month, and i almost never even use the mouse i can connect to it in like a second.

Which laptop do you have?

Its only on the powerbooks...and I think only the 15 and 17.

I'm always using the PCMCIA slot on my 15" with my CF card reader.

At first I wasn't a big fan of touchpads, but after using my powerbook laptop at work, my bosses powerbook, and my wifes dell laptop, I've gotten used to it. But it still isn't my first preference.

I always liked the eraser tip mouses they had on IBM thinkpads and on Toshiba's laptops.

i'm using the app sidetrack on my mac
(http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20854)

i can't imagine life without it, as it lets me scroll, as i got my mac before the 2 finger thing ( ). and lets me right click, and 3&4 button

now if someone would just crack it, so i wouldn't have to spend 15 bucks for the real thing

I'm pretty pissed that I disproved the "big hand/foot = big penis" theory.
