Logitech introduced revolutionary mouse

Computer peripherals maker Logitech on Thursday announced two new mice that enable users to quickly scroll through long documents and web pages with a flick of its free-spinning scroll wheel. The wheel, dubbed the MicroGear Precision Scroll Wheel, is included in both the MX Revolution and VX Revolution mice. After flicking the wheel, it spins continuously for seven seconds, and can scroll through up to 10,000 Microsoft Excel lines with a single flick. Users can stop the wheel by tapping it.



The mice also include a feature that lets you highlight a word or phrase and then conduct a Web search with a single click. Located under the scroll wheel, the One-Touch Search button can bring up Web search results for a highlighted word or phrase with just a single click. After highlighting a term in a spreadsheet or document, clicking the search button opens a Web browser with Yahoo, Google, or Yahoo LiveWords search results for the term. Suggested retail price is set to 99.99 U.S. dollars, which may seem quite a lot for one mouse, but the good name of Logitech and unique features will probably ensure some popularity for this gadget…
