Considering that offices in Japan is like airplane cabin where people are so tightly packed, it's entirely understandable that silent mice are big hit.<br>By the way, you guys have covered silent keyboards, too, right?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kaztm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 10:47AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA[You click (for instance, "click here"; ここクリックして), but the sound is still kachi. Not to mention it doesn't flow so well (sound effects are usually repeated twice or more, and kachi kachi is snappier, which characterizes its sound). ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Pal]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 11:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA[So "kuri'ku" is the action, while "kachi" is the sound?  I'm bilingual, but I've never heard of someone saying "kachi'to pasokon kara..."; you would say "kuri'ku shite, ...".  The only place I've heard of kachi is when someone takes a photograph (camera).  Maybe I'm just to old to have heard these newfangled terms. :)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryhan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 11:41AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ryhan, the sound of camera (shutter) is "pachi" not "kachi".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kaztm]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 2:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA["カチカチ" (kachi-kachi) is any somewhat repetitious clicking or ticking sound. Your keyboard does it, as does your mouse, clock, cab meter and a whole host of other devices. "クリック" (kurikku) has a much more limited usage in Japanese compared to "click" in English. It's used primarily for the computer related button pushing on screen, but not for pens or heels, and not for the mouse button per se only the cursor. <br><br>I used to work with about 45 people in an open office, it get's really annoying to hear that many people banging on their keyboards and mice loudly. I have no doubt this mouse will be big, well at least in impact only.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[VJH]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 2:48PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think the clicking of the mouse is soothing. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 12:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Thanko's Silent Mouse 2: now with more quiet]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/02/thankos-silent-mouse-2-now-with-more-quiet/</guid><description><![CDATA[Oops!

Also, remember that kachi-kachi is followed by 音(ON) as in sound.  Japanese have numerous ways to describe sound in this manner.  Like ジージー、キーキー、しとしと、からんころん, etc.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nipponese]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 2nd 2007 4:40PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
