Most might consider the need to operate a mouse on a glass surface a rather moot and gimmicky marketing feature, but not me. I hate my mouse pad and feel like I have a doormat living on my desk. I present to you the Logitech Performance MX mouse. It uses a technology called Darkfield Laser Tracking technology, which I assure you won’t annihilate any humans but reflects the laser off the imperfections in the glass; one caveat though, the glass has to be at least 4mm thick.
Dvice got their hands on one and did a little video demo. Although the video shows it clearly working, if you look closely there is a bit of juttering when the Performance MX mouse is being used on glass, leading me to believe that the tech is not 100% sound.
The Performance MX mouse will be available later this month along with the smaller Anywhere Mouse MX for $100 and $80 respectively.

Some of us would only be so lucky to have a library of DVDs that reaches as far as the eye can see, or a pantry stuffed so full of food it goes stale before consumption. So how do you manage your vast amount of worldly goods? Pen and paper, excel spreadsheet? Wrong. You seek refuge in the organized world of bar code.
The Intelliscanner is a handy little tool that reads barcodes. It can scan up to 250 items in one sitting and plugs into your computer via USB where it dumps the collected codes into the included software. It then subsequently looks up the products info and creates a database. Perfect for keeping track of your DVD, wine or beer collection. Additionally, it can assist in create shopping lists. Just scan the used products, plug it in and a list of ‘to be purchased’ products is created.
