Logitech has recently announced shipping their billionth mouse, just in time to mark forty years since the first mouse was demonstrated in public. Now
selling a large range of keyboards, mice, webcams, and numerous other forms of input (and more recently output too), Logitech sells, on average, 7.8
million mice every month, or 376,000 per day, to over 100 countries. Some readers may remember the times before the mouse, and how the mouse formed
the path of both commercial and personal computer use. Many things that are now assumed to be standard are dependent on the invention of the mouse.

When Logitech released the G9 mouse, a big fuss kicked up in regards to the design and appearance of the mouse, with a lot of people disliking the
square, hard shape of it. Now, Logitech have introduced their latest mouse, which aims to get loyal customers that stuck with their much loved
Logitech G5s when the Logitech G9 was released, to consider an upgrade. The Logitech Gaming Mouse G500 is, in Logitech's words, "the successor
to the classic Logitech G5 Laser Mouse," and has a new look, higher maximum dpi (dots per inch), as well as onboard memory.

betanews.com - 13.12.2007Gears of War PC Preview
So here I am, playing Gears of War on a widescreen Samsung TV at 1,920 x 1080 and, somehow, everything feels rather familiar. I swear I was doing just
this a year ago, previewing a game that quickly came to define a console and propel the Xbox 360 into a successful holiday period. But hang on a
moment, what's this? Ah, there's a keyboard and mouse in front of me as well as the familiar Xbox 360 controller. Since when did the Xbox 360
support a keyboard and mouse?
Answer is, of course, it doesn't and probably never will. This is the PC version of Gears of War
and, as such, a keyboard and mouse is an essential addition. Indeed, it's an addition that posed quite a few problems for the development team, as
Cliff Bleszinski, known simply as 'CliffyB' in gaming circles, attests to:
'What we actually wound up doing behind the
scenes was having a lot of little tweaks to make sure that the player wasn't too empowered with the keyboard and mouse¦we didn't want the game to
devolve into how quickly can I get one pixel on another pixel, because that's really not what the game is about."
winbeta.org - 20.09.2007Microsoft mouse to combine wireless, memory
Microsoft is preparing the Mobile Memory Mouse 8000, a laptop mouse which combines several important features. Above all is 1GB of internal memory,
allowing owners to treat the 8000 as a USB flash drive. The mouse also offers not one but two wireless options: Bluetooth or 2.4GHz, the latter
through the same USB port that allows file transfer. A switch flips between the two. The USB connector further offers magnetic charging through a
direct connection.
The sensor is a high-resolution laser, and added controls on the mouse include a tiltwheel and two side
buttons, assigned by default to "Magnifier" and "Back." Being a Microsoft mouse, the 8000 is immediately compatible with Windows Vista's Flip3D
interface. It should be released in October for $159.

The original mouse invention which is now in use on every office and home PC turns 40 next week. Looking like something that could take your
fingers clean off, the wooden block with a single red button on top was unveiled to the world 40 years ago. Douglas Engelbart invented the mouse and
worked with Bill English to build the device. In 1967, Engelbart applied for, and in 1970 he received a patent for the wooden shell with two metal
wheels. In 1981, Xerox included a mouse with their Star computer system, and a few years later Apple offered one with their Macintosh system.
Microsoft then made it the standard device for their Windows operating system.

Looking for a new keyboard and mouse combo? Got a bit of spare cash? Look no further, this is the "Ultimate" keyboard and mouse combo set that
Microsoft has ever created. The Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 combines a mouse, keyboard and a new charging "dock". The dock allows you to
charge both the mouse and keyboard...wirelessly. You simply slip the keyboard under the charging port and it's charging, stick the mouse on top
and that's charging too. It was this sole reason I was interested in this combo combined with the fact it has a backlit keyboard. Lets take a
look at all its features.

The Logitech brand has long been associated with quality and inexpensive PC peripheral solutions. Over the years, they have redefined the way we
interact with our computers with many new innovative products and technologies. In 2004, Logitech was the first company to introduce the laser optical
mouse to the mainstream market with the MX 1000 cordless mouse.
Today, we will be giving you a glimpse into one of Logitech's latest
offerings, the MX 1100 Cordless Laser Mouse; successor to the MX 1000.
"After the success of the Logitech MX 1000, a comfortable
mouse with buttons galore, I would never have thought that Logitech could come up with a true successor. However, when hearing about the brand new MX
1100 a few months ago, I thought that this could be a perfect replacement for my aging MX 1000..."

jcxp.net - 05.02.2009Microsoft Releases new Mouse using a BlueTrack Sensor
The Microsoft Explorer Mouse and Explorer Mini Mouse were announced today and feature a unique technology that is making its debut in these devices.
It’s called BlueTrack, and this new sensor can work on just about any surface.
In fact, BlueTrack is much more accurate on shiny
surfaces than any other tech out there right now. If you don’t like using a mouse pad and find your desk has too much of a sheen for your mouse
to accurately register, this technology should help you tremendously.
Microsoft developed this new tech, which sets it apart from the
standard Agilent Technologies licensed laser sensors that fit in most other computer mice. This one might stick with Microsoft, and if they decide to
license it, well, that would make them a bundle, especially if these two launches work out well. The Explorer Mouse will sell for $99.99 and the
Explorer Mini Mouse will sell for $79.99 once they are released this November.

both the mouse and keyboard. The revamped mouse and keyboard are touting the model numbers of A1296 and A1314 respectively, compared to the old A1197

jcxp.net - 25.03.2009Apple may extend multi-touch to computer mice
Apple Inc. has filed for a
patent describing a computer
mouse having a touch-sensative
shell capable of accepting
multi-touch finger gestures,
similar to the surface of the
company's iPhone handset.
"The invention
relates to a configurable
mouse with an extended sensing
surface, which provides the
mouse a customizable,
programmable or adaptable way
of generating inputs," Apple
wrote in the filing.
A "position detection
mechanism" would detect the
movement of the mouse along a
surface, while "a multipoint
touch detection mechanism"
would simultaneously gather
feedback from one or more
objects that are contacting or
in close proximity to a
substantially large portion of
the grippable mouse shell.
"The mouse additionally
includes a controller for
processing signals generated
by the position detection
mechanism and multipoint touch
detection mechanism," Apple
explained.
