The mouse is dying

I would call it nano-mouse just because is sounds cool (to me).

Simtrix have just shown off their baby. It is a brilliant stick-to-my-finger device that makes copy pasting a breeze. No longer will you have to take your hand off your keyboard, when you work on a laptop you will no longer have to use the touchpad, things will just be easier and more intuitive.

There are two versions of this beauty called Swiftpoint device. They both sit between your index finger and your thumb.

The TriPed

The TriPed can be used as a pen but not only.
Simtrix say: “The device provides seamless transitioning between mouse, pen, and text entry without introducing any of the compromises typically associated with pen or touch interfaces”. I agree

Is it not cute? Oh by the way the two buttons you see at the top of the device are basically your left and right click buttons.

The Slider

This is what most of us will be using (the TriPed is appropriate for tablet owners.
