"iPod" Mouse

CNET tracked down this amusing little poseur. It's a USB mouse in the shape of an iPod. Or at least it's kind of sort of suggests iPodishness in its presentation, which you can see at the Buffalo.jp website. A tiny trackball is positioned in the center of the "scroll wheel", which according to the CNET article actually does click–although those clicks supposedly produce left and right mouse button presses. It costs about $60 and is not officially Mac compatible although it works with Vista, USB 2.0 and USB 1.1.
