Beijing Olympics Fuwa Mascot Mice (Lenovo Says Must Buy)

Even though Beijing Olympics was over, Lenovo - gold sponsor of the multi-sport event - still has a boatload of commemorative gadgets left over. Among those are of course all the different Olympics USB thumbdrives and now a quintet of wired USB mice that are named after each of the Fuwa mascots: Beibei, Jingjing, Huanhuan, Yingying and NiNi. The mouse asymmetrical design reportedly took six months to complete, after no less than two hundred modifications. The 1000 dpi optical mice are elevated, providing sufficient palm support for prolonged use. Last but not least, the Fuwas are also UV painted for protection against scratches. Still want it? Each Fuwa mascot mouse retails for 138 RMB ($20), and they are apparently available in China (and Hong Kong) only as far as we can tell. Close-up pics after the jump.
