This $70 mouse allows the user to swipe and scroll like a smartphone thanks to its touch-based surface.

I thought it was cool to the touch. Kind of disappointed now.
Funny how awkward wording can make things interesting! 😛

Very cool tech, but not for me.

I'd hate to be playing BF3 and accidentally switch to my knife during a gun fight.

This would look kinda funny at work.
People walking past and your swiping your finger on the surface of this black rock. lol.

At least it's something different.

look at the razor naga, i love that mouse, but wish someone who would make a higher quality version would come out of the wood work. really anyone but razor... i have 2 years before i need a new mouse again... i dont want to have to re buy another naga, no matter how much i like it, its a quality thing.

After the horrendous Microsoft Touch Mouse that's actually a massive button defeating the whole point?

PASS.

This looks like something a Mac user would buy, if it were white.

Who the hell would buy this?

... and if it costed $99.99 instead.

It's just a Magic Mouse for the PC... terrible for gaming but great for general work.

Hated it when it was white, not even going to waste money on it when it's carbon-fiber. . .

There IS such a thing as tactile-feedback, and we as humans ARE geared for it. . .

Apple Magic Mouse costs $69 (in Canada)

Yes it is only $69 in the US too. But at the same price ( a buck cheaper) it doesn't fit a troll's agenda.

Hmmm...sort of like a trackball without the ball.

"Logitech said that the Touch Mouse M600 also includes the tiny Logitech Unifying receiver, which can connect up to six compatible mice and keyboards through one USB port."

How many mice/keyboards does one need connected to a computer? Multiple monitors, sure.... multiple keyboards.... doubt it. /trolling

Talk about old news. This news is sad.

MICROSOFT released a touch mouse months ago.

In fact, I have one of them. It works GREAT for browsing the internet and doing mundane tasks.

It SUCKS for playing games or anything which requires quick response.

I give it a 3 out of 5 only because its cool to be different. But in terms of utility the old wheel mouse is light years ahead of it. And for gaming........... forgetabout.

probably not a good idea if you have sweaty hands

I'm surprised the article didn't mention anything about how it's a complete rip-off of the Magic Mouse from Apple, at least conceptually. I wouldn't be buying either one anyway.
