MacMice Release the Danger Mouse

MacMice Release the Danger Mouse
No, not the classic British spy cartoon - it's a new flagship mouse design from the MacMice company, aimed at taking down Apple's Mighty Mouse design.

The good: it's a very clean design with a redesigned version of the scrolllinks Ball called the MicroScroll that MacMice claims works better than Apple's version.

The bad: there's no wireless version (although MacMice may have chosen to do wired only to have both PC and Mac compatibility; Might Mouse basically has the same problem), none of the incredibly useful side buttons (a design choice, but Apple managed to work in side buttons as well) and its 1600 DPI laser isn't the top of the line; you can get a 2000 DPI laser in the Logitech G7 (for $80) - and more DPI means more control, the all-important thing for gamers and graphic artists.

Still, for $30 (less than half of the cost of the Might Mouse), this doesn't seem like too bad of an option if you're in the market for a new mouse, especially if you like MacMice's existing products.
