I own the keyboard (off of ebay) and is great for my gaming computer so my 'keyboard' tray can house my mouse w/ large mousepad and ergodex controller.]]>Nov 16th 2006 1:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/Nov 16th 2006 1:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/Nov 16th 2006 2:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/]]>Nov 16th 2006 9:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/Nov 16th 2006 8:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/
I'm in the market for a new wireless K/M for my HTPC... any reviews of the Gyration Optical Air Mouse?]]>Nov 16th 2006 9:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/15/buffalos-wiimote-knockoff-the-bomu-w24a-bl-spatial-mouse/
I also own one of these that I bought several months ago (Gyration at Office Depot for $99)

To answer your question Wonderboy - the mouse can be used on a desktop just like a regular wireless laser mouse - when you pick it up and hold the trigger in it becomes an "air mouse" - I use mine 80% of the time as a regular mouse, but like the fact I can pick it up and use it from across the room if needed...
