New Mouse From HP To Use Wi-Fi

                                             

                                                         To be priced around Rs 2,400.



Wi-Fi wins over Bluetooth is many ways. Thankfully, no manufacturer I can recall has been daft enough to implement it in a mouse or a keyboard. However, HP has decided to change that with its new Wi-Fi Mobile Mouse (quite a mouthful name).

Any wireless mouse worth its salt ships with a receiver in the form of a dongle. HP's Wi-Fi mouse incredulously does not have any receiver of its own. That means, unless you want to use it with a Wi-Fi ready laptop, this mouse is of no worth to you. On the other hand, laptop users will appreciate the fact that this mouse frees up a USB port. The rodent has five programmable buttons and a four-way scroll for better navigation. Interestingly, the gadget offers a degree of control over its laser sensor, allowing it to adapt to the different surfaces. HP claims a battery of life up to nine months, which sounds impressive.


Priced at $50 (Rs 2,400 approx), the Wi-Fi Mobile Mouse is currently available in the USA. Hopefully, it won't be too long before it hits the Indian market.
