The basic design of the mouse has remained unchanged since its invention by Douglas Engelbart in 1967, but its limitations are exposed by modern 3D and photo-editing software. 3DConnexion's Space Navigator attempts to remedy this situation by adding myria...

This gadget isn't just a green device - it's also a handy spare battery. You charge up the device's lithium ion cells over USB or with the detachable solar panels (the former is quicker in grey and gloomy UK) and use it to top up various handheld devices....
