PCPAL trifecta crams mouse, RF remote, and laser into PCMCIA slot

You're not apt to find us grumbling about a little consolidation done right, and the PCPAL "3-in-1" mouse, RF remote control, and laser pointer looks to have (most) all the right tools to properly occupy that presumably lonely PCMCIA slot. Aside from handling those PowerPoint presentations from afar, dictating your cursor, and beaming a red dot on those (hopefully soaring) yearly profit reports, this thing purportedly pulls a fourth duty acting as a "keyboard," but considering the obvious lack of alphanumeric buttons on the slot-housed device, we're assuming this assertion was very loosely based. Regardless, this boardroom's best friend reportedly plays nice with Windows, OS X, and Linux operating systems, and you even get a USB RF receiver bundled in. So if you've been scouting a way to add a dash of utility to that gaping PCMCIA slot, you can hit this up for just under 40 bucks.
