Now I want to show you a cool mouse that can be used with desktop PCs as well as laptop companion, looking like the TVR Tuscan car, with blue LED headlights, Chrome Style Wheels, Rear taillights, 2 buttons and scroll wheel.

<-234x60 Half Banner - left->Genius has released a new notebook mouse with laser technology and a new type of scroll wheel.
Called Genius Navigator 525, the laptop accessory uses the OptoWheel optical sensor which improves scrolling making it faster and more precise.

Known as the first ergonomic mouse with OptoWheel scrolling, the model is replacing the traditional wheel and is designed for best ergonomics for both left handed and right handed people.
It has 1600 dpi sensor that can be reduced at 800 dpi and 3 special keys, while the optical sensor is in the area of the blue light on top of the mouse, featuring vertical and horizontal finger movement detection.



If you press on the sensor harder you are automatically enabling the TurboScroll for faster browsing in both directions, similar with standard scroll wheels, but you can also use it for gaming.
The 3 keys are for quick access to Smart IE Search, 3D Task Manager Flip3D, and zooming.

Genius Navigator 525 is available at a price of 29.99 EUR.

<-234x60 Half Banner - left->The world’s highest capacity Solid State Drive was announced yesterday by Samsung Electronics, as the 256GB SSD model, which is also the world’s fastest 2.5-inch multi-level cell based SSD drive type with S-ATA II interface.
And to complete the description, Samsung’s 256GB SSD is even the world’s thinnest drive with such a capacity for use in portable computers.
Its read speed is of 200MB per second while the writing speed reaches 160MB/s, highest rates for a 9.5 mm thick Solid State Drive measuring 100.3 x 69.85 mm.

"With development of the 256GB SSD, the notebook PC is on the brink of a second stage of evolution. This change is comparable to the evolution from the Sony Walkman to NAND memory-based MP3 players, representing an initial step in the shift to thinner, smaller SSD-based notebooks with significantly improved performance and more than ample storage," declared Jim Elliott, vice president, memory marketing, Samsung Semiconductor, Inc.

Samsung MLC 256GB SSD model features 1 billion hours Mean Time Between Failures and 0.9 watts power consumption.
To offer a high level of data protection, Samsung MLC 256GB SSD comes with a sophisticated data encryption process that forbids unauthorized access even when the SSD is out of the computer.

The highest capacity SSD drive’s mass production is scheduled for this year’s end and until then, samples will be available in September.
