Not out yet but when it does com out...
Sooo .. it's a newly fancy and smartly designet piece of gadgetry.
Watch it flop.
:D
Her hand is wearing a bikini, how does that help Amber?
looks like onna those things out of minority report
I'm thinking one(or two) of those, combined with a Nvidia 3D-Vision (http://www.nvidia.com/object/3D_Vision_Main.html) setup, a 3d modeling program... you could probably do some pretty awesome stuff.
For the rest of us however, I don't think it'd be much use - Especially as you have to keep your hand in the air like that: I'd imagine it would get to be tiring pretty darn quickly.
I'll keep my Logitech G9(that I'm using with my -left- hand), thanks.
Heh, it reminds me of the headband with some nerve sensors, that would allow you to move the cursor with the power of the mind !!
Offcourse, you couldn't actually click on anything, they hadn't thought of that.
Yeah, it flopped.
:D
Ehm , nothing better than good old two button ball at the bottom mice! They take a lot to break down - and besides of scraping the rollers with your fingernail no maintenance either

you would be horrified at the amount of gunk that collects in all mice.
I know - as i said i scrape it off the rollers, and then shake it out.
in the inside not so much collects - i have taken some mouses apart to fix so i know..

the scroll wheel, too?
She has a mouse problem? Looking at the rant I see nothing. Do they get archived to see what was previously said?

It's amazing how much dust and cat hair gets
inside an optical mouse. I'm not sure if it's a little of that still (after cleaning out the mouse) causing my left button to multi-click or if it's just the switch going bad on me (like another mouse did, with the same potential cause).
Nah, last I checked she wasn't cool with them being archived. She gave a reason, but to be frank I can't remember it. Long story short she doesn't archive them, but I know a few folks around here who might...

which, if you think about it, is kinda creepy... really, if Amber wanted to archive her rants, she'd have something like
livejournal or have a blogger embedded in her website.

And this what Keeps Amber up every...night.... :mowcookie
PBH
I want one! :mowmeep
I don't have the arm strength to keep my hand floating above my desk in the shape of a mouse for more than 10 minutes at a time :mowtongue Otherwise I'd be all over that thingy!
As I recall, the reason that she didn't want her rants archived was that they were rants based on the occurrences of the day and that she sometimes found them embarrassing when examined at a later date. If she felt that they would be around forever, she would have felt inhibited in her comments and less likely to post rants.

Well, it's not as if we
stalk her or anything ... wait ... never mind.
:stalk
Oh hey, I resent that - Stalking's difficult!!
You, like, have to get outside 'n' everything.
:D
Outside? Outside what?

and considering those who'd really
want to archive amber's logs aren't even good enough to burst into flames when they hit direct sunlight..
instead they
sparkle >:3
Ugh, yeah ... those sparkles really hurt the eyes. :<
Back to the topic at hand, why does it look like they used paint to put it on her hand in two of those other images? It makes me think this is not a real product.
I find that trackballs are real nice. Easy to clean, no moving parts to jam and once you get used to them you'll never go back.
According to this article, the air mouse should be out within a year (http://www.gizmag.com/airmouse-wearable-mouse/13993/).
