Logitech's V470 Bluetooth mouse landing in September
For those of you waiting on a totally plain-Jane, middle of the road, wireless laser mouse, perhaps you should turn your gaze to the Logitech V470; the shiny blue mouse of your dreams. Forgoing the typical USB dongle, the V470 links up via Bluetooth 1.2, thus avoiding unsightly protrusions from your PC, and conserving valuable desktop space -- which you'll need when utilizing the mouse's elegantly named "Side-to-Side Scrolling Plus Zoom," which apparently lets you scroll... and, uh, zoom. The V470 will be available in September with a price tag of $49.99.[Thanks, Ankur]
