We thought we'd seen it all when it comes to the portable mouse:
thin,
tiny,
optical,
bluetooth, etc. Now Scythe offers a unique twist on the
travel mouse by making a full size 3-button mouse with retractable USB cable, fold. Well, it doesn't so much fold as
tuck away like a frightened turtle. When fully
aroused, it measures 5.8-inches or about half that when startled. Available in white or black for a mere $14 and we
reckon that's a real square-deal Karl. Mmm-hmm.
first
kinda ugly ain't it?
so, why does the "frightened turtle" link search for poop?
Reminds me of a cheesy collapsible camping cup...
What's the point?
hehe, fully aroused
Rus: For notebooks, yo. Having a mouse that comes in a tiny package and is still comfortable is very desirable.
I have an idea for a Nintendo Revolution controller. It would be a portable 20 gig video player with a 3.5" screen that plays MPG, AVI, and Mp3. It could connect to your PC via USB2.0 to transfer files or you could connect it to the Revolution and use it as a controller. It would have the ability to store up to 20 gigs of save files as well.
wow.. how more off topic could you be?
Well I have an idea for a big cheeseburger, but the cheese would be replaced with lettuce, and the meat would be replaced with buckwheat, and instead of putting it between two buns you would dip it in liquid aluminum.
Folded or unfolded, it remains ugly.
Not small enough.
Kevin: LOL.
But seriously, this mouse is drop-dead UGLY :x
it's drop dead ugly, and for $10 more, you can get a good medium size mouse with a retractable cord.
I could be used for possible health issues, too. I know that some people with arthuritis can't handle a mini-mouse, like my mom. they need to use a full size one or the touchpad. so full size one, folded up (even if it is ugly as sin) that fits in a laptop bag works for people.
What am I missing here? It doesn't look like it fold down that much, and what you end up with is more parts to break. Was anyone looking for a mouse that gets only 20% smaller? Will that make it suddenly fit into spaces a full-sized mouse couldn't?
Some people call it a folding mouse, I call it a turtle mouse. Mmhmm.
There's one place it fits better than a full sized mouse, but I won't go there.

Mice are not so huge that they need to be made smaller. Who would buy this?
The mouse is groundhoggin'
