IOGEAR’s Laser Mini Mouse Goes Where No Optical Mouse Has Gone Before [07-25-2005]
Provides 30 times more tracking power than mice using an optical sensor
Irvine, CA – July 25, 2005 – Mobile professionals are no longer confined to using bulky mice or laptop trackpads with IOGEAR’s new Mini Travel Laser Mouse. This revolutionary device works on virtually any surface, including wood tables, Formica counters and opaque glass.
The new mouse enables road warriors to work easier and more accurately in
space-restricted locations, such as airplanes, cars and coffee shops. Its compact design (1.75 in. x 3.5 in. x 1.5 in.) allows users to easily carry and store the mouse in laptop bags or even pockets.
The Mini Travel Laser Mouse deploys Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) as its light source, which allows for superior tracking capabilities. The new technology offers 30 times more tracking power than traditional optical mice. Its retractable cable cuts down clutter for business travelers who do most of their work in limited areas, including airports and hotel rooms.
“Mobile workers are often faced with confined workspaces, and optical mice don’t allow them to work from any location or on any surface,” said Lewis Lustman, marketing manager at IOGEAR. “Targeted specifically for people on the go, IOGEAR’s new Mini Travel Laser Mouse allows users to work on a variety of surfaces, ultimately providing more flexibility. At 1600 dpi, users only need a few inches for accurate all-terrain mouse movement.”
The Laser Travel Mini Mouse is USB-ready, Plug-n-Play and hot pluggable. It features ergonomically contoured design for comfortable use. IOGEAR’s Mini Travel Laser Mouse is priced at $49.95 and is available immediately from all major catalog resellers, online resellers and selected retail outlets. The product comes equipped with IOGEAR’s standard three-year warranty.
