Brando's flatliner aluminum USB mouse

What kind of crazy crap will Brando come up with next? How about a semi-flatish aluminum USB mouse? Yeah, works for us too at $22 bones, which is probably significantly less than they spent on that dandy hand model. Good times.

How do I buy one though?! I can't find a company called Brando anywhere! Link?

Looks comfortable.

[Reese @ Mar 16th 2007 3:29AM]

sure looks comfortable...


$22 bones? thats like saying $22 dollars...

[aarond @ Mar 16th 2007 8:35PM]

"$22" is like saying '22 dollars'... dollars is what '$' stands for. "$22 bones" is like saying '22 dollars bones.' "$22 dollars," as you proposed he said, is like saying '22 dollars dollars,' and thus is needlessly repetitive. If you're going to correct somebody's grammar, make sure you've got your own right.

@aarond - bones is a slang synonym for dollars... i didnt think i needed to include the step of replacing bones with dollars... i figured it was easy to figure that out... not really sure what you are pointing out.

if you replace his 'bones' with 'dollars'... it was like he was saying '22 dollars dollars'

there is a reason why i chose the word 'like' up there... it means it's a similar saying, not an equivalent saying

looks classic

[Davee @ Mar 16th 2007 4:23AM]

Yea, like Amiga mouse "classic"..

Why go to the trouble if it's not wireless?

[colin6969 @ Mar 16th 2007 9:18AM]

This may sound crazy, but I've waited a LONG time for a mouse like this. I've never agreed with any current mice as I'm a 'fingers' mouser...I hate mice that form or even TOUCH my palm.....

ya...wish it were bluetooth or something though.

"Ergonomically Retarded" is the phrase that comes to mind... Check out the new Brando PC Eniac2007!! Sure to take up an entire room of your house! Moth remover not included!

[Jt Hollister @ Mar 16th 2007 10:57AM]

When mice try to be ergonomic, they end up being the opposite. They fill every nook and cranny in your hand so your palm doesn't have any room to breathe...I hate them. I love the Mac Mice, but this'ne looks worth trying.

mdcollier: Lots of people will NEVER use a wireless mouse, including me. Especially significant if you game.

[chris @ Mar 16th 2007 12:27PM]

i only use wired mice. why bother with the hassle of changing batteries, turning your mouse on/off each day, or risking flat batteries in the middle of a 3 hour presentation in front of a client. Is a thin mouse wire that much of a bother ?

[LukeA @ Mar 16th 2007 3:21PM]

I game, and I use a Targus AMB03US to no ill effect. It's laser and Bluetooth.
