The USB exercise mouse tests your typing speed

USB exercise mouse

We’ve all seen mice running round and round on their treadmill in cages. This is a similar concept. But in this case the mouse is fake and it peddles on an exercise bike instead of running wildly in a circular carousel. Just plug this little guy into your USB port and the faster you type, the faster he pedals. The speed is displayed on an LCD display screen

This is a fun way to improve your typing speed. Just don’t make it your life’s goal to turn this guy into Lance Armstrong. And try not to abuse him too much. I can see great office competitions, as people vie for the fastest speeds. You can get it for about $40.
