Inexpensive, low-powered netbook computers might be all the rage as secondary and add-on computers…and now they’re spawning their own classes of accessories. Newton Peripherals has introduced a bundled version of its MoGo Presenter Mouse specifically for netbook computers: the kit includes a Mogo Bluetooth Adapter, charging cable, and a low-profile, removable docking holster so make transporting the mouse simple and painless.
“Netbooks are becoming increasingly popular, but they have no easy way to store, transport or charge a mouse,” said Newton Peripherals president Stuart Nixdorff, in a statement. “No other mouse manufacturer including Logitech, Microsoft, or Belkin has yet to develop a fully integrated netbook mouse like the MoGo Mouse for Netbooks.”
The Mogo Presenter Mouse is a Bluetooth 2.0 device with an 800 dpi resolution; it weights just half an oune, and can run for 8 to 10 hours on a 30-minute battery charge. Newton is bundling it together with a Mogo Bluetooth Adapter, charging cable, and a removable low-profile holster that enables users to secure their mouse on the lid of their netbook without having to worry about gathering up peripherals—and the holster should be thin enough to fit inside most netbook cases.
The MoGo Mouse for Netbooks kit is available now for $99; it works on Windows XP and Vista systems—and will even work with Mac OS X systems, but don’t let Cupertino hear you refer to any of them as “netbooks.”
