At a first look this mouse may seem to have an integrated display, which would be very cool, but that’s just a printed photo that at least stays in a protected area, safe from your greasy palms. Only if you’re one of those people who always carry in your wallet pictures of your son, daughter, husband, wife or dog, this optical mouse might be of any interest whatsoever.

The mouse is wireless and comes with an USB radio frequency adapter. This slim mouse seems to be aimed at travelers who are always away missing the ones they left at home, so that maybe looking at the picture can help them feel less miserable about it. I’m sorry if you loved this, but I don’t see much future for the photo mouse. There seems to be all kinds of inventions regarding pointing devices, but this one seems pointless to me.

If you disagree with me, and still want one for yourself, the Photo Mouse costs US$ 45. The picture is not included, or course.
