Far from a ground breaking device. Logitech announced an all new Bluetooth mouse today, the M555b.  What’s it sporting you ask?  Two scroll modes, laser tracking, a low power battery indicator LED and a smart sleep mode to conserve juice.  It takes two AAs, maxes out at 1000dpi and will launch sometime later this month for $50.

Full release after the ‘leap’

The laser sensor does not work on glass and mirrors.

Product Overview
Get more from the Bluetooth technology that’s built into your notebook. With the Logitech
Bluetooth Mouse M555b there’s no cable and no receiver, so nothing will hold you back at the
office or around the house. Hyper-fast scrolling lets you fly through long documents and Web
pages, or you can switch to click-to-click mode for more precision. One spin and you may never
go back to an ordinary scroll wheel.
