Samsung Beckons with the Ways of the Trackball

  January 23rd, 2008



We're not sure if trackball mice are less common because people don't like them as much as the original, or - despite their supposed superiority (we hear they're more ergonomic) - they've been outcompeted by better marketing, like the mouse equivalent of Betamax. However, they do have one application where they'd be far superior to the wrist-moving original: in the portable mouse market, where desk space tends to be at a premium, and even portable traditional mice like the MS Mobile Memory Mouse 8000 and the Logitech VX Nano Notebook Mouse are at a disadvantage. That's the idea behind the Samsung M30/Duplus Mouse, a pocket-size trackballer with a wireless USB connection system, a laser pointer, and remote controller capabilities. Currently available only in Korea, the M30 makes converting to the ways of the trackball sound like a worthy sacrifice.
