Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse and Spill-Resistant Desktop now available for back-to-school season
Irvine, CA – September 15, 2008 – IOGEAR today introduced new products to outfit any computer for on-the-go users and students returning to school this fall: its Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse and Spill-Resistant Desktop.
For the traveling professional, IOGEAR’s Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse is a feature-rich solution that works on numerous surfaces and utilizes a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) light source for increased precision and smoother cursor control. The tilt wheel lets individuals scroll horizontally as well as vertically to effectively edit large spreadsheets. The product can operate up to 33 feet away from a Bluetooth-enabled computer, greatly reducing cable clutter and increasing mobility. The included rechargeable battery is ideal for users who don’t have spare batteries handy when on the road. The Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse comes with a button for adjusting sensitivity between 400, 800, 1200 and 1600 dpi with no driver installation required, perfect for graphic artists and gaming enthusiasts.
Ideal for families with young children or students who snack at their desks while doing their homework, IOGEAR’s Spill-Resistant Desktop’s keyboard is designed with a drain hole to prevent long-term damage following accidental liquid spills. The product comes with an optical mouse with 800 dpi for use on multiple surfaces and integrated ‘back’ and ‘forward’ buttons to easily navigate the Web. The keyboard has built-in hotkeys to control multimedia, and its ergonomic, ultra-thin design with detachable rubber-coated wrist rest is perfect for users who spend hours at the computer and want to decrease arm discomfort.
“We continue to improve upon the most common computer accessories to meet the changing needs of consumers,” said Miranda Su, executive vice president at IOGEAR. “Our Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse and Spill-Resistant Desktop address pain points of students and road warriors by providing products that cater to their lifestyles.”
The Bluetooth Tilt Wheel Laser Mouse ($69.95 MSRP) comes with IOGEAR’s one-year warranty and the Spill-Resistant Desktop ($29.95 MSRP) offers a three-year warranty. The products are available immediately from all major catalog and online resellers, as well as select retail outlets.
