In a way, the Casio USB label mouse from Brando looks like an updated fortune cookie. It’s a pretty innovative doubling up of 2 products. Just print labels directly from your mouse.

This is probably for those people that need to label everything with their name on it. There is a drawback however. The thermal roll paper isn’t cheap. It retails for $14 for a pack of 3. Ouch! The mouse itself costs $29. But you really can’t put a price on cool. It might save your desktop from Post-It overload.

Peanut butter and jelly. Black and white. GPS and mouse. That’s right – someone has gone ahead and paired GPS technology with a computer rodent. Hold onto your wallets and read about the questionable new gadget known as the Deluo MouseGPS, priced at around $100.

The Deluo MouseGPS, which we first covered earlier this month, is quite simply a USB mouse with a retractable USB cord and optical scrolling. The quirky part becomes apparent when you flip the switch and it becomes a GPS receiver which “tracks 16 parallel satellite channels for ease of use in even densely urban or rural areas.” It pairs with Microsoft software such as Streets & Trips to help you navigate around town.

WOW TECH has a newer version of their ergonomically designed Wow-Pen mouse coming to the U.S. later this month called the Wow-Pen Traveler. The Traveler, like the “eco”, has a unique design that lets you hold it more comfortably like a pen to put less strain on your wrist and arm according the company. But this mouse also packs a few more nice features into is odd-looking design.

Now here is a garden variety desktop mouse with a little bit of personal flair which might make a good gift for grandma. The Saitek Photo Mouse is priced at around $20.

The Saitek Photo Mouse is a standard three-button computer mouse with scroll wheel and optical sensor. What makes this mouse interesting is that it “can be customized by printing a favorite photograph and positioning it under the mouse’s transparent cover.” One cuts a photo printed from the computer to the size of the included template and secures it inside the mouse by closing the cover.

Deluo, the same company that recently brought us the Bluetooth GPS for smartphones, also has available the Deluo GPSMouse. As the name implies the GPSMouse combines a GPS receiver and a travel mouse into one product.

This 2 in1 gadget first works as a normal, USB-powered optical travel mouse with a lightweight design for taking with you on the go. It even has a retractable USB cord built-in to help keep it compact. In addition, through a flick of a switch on the bottom it instantly transforms into a GPS receiver connected to your computer through the same USB cable and offering positional assistance without having to have a separate device. The MouseGPS can also optionally come packaged with Microsoft Streets & Trips giving you both pointer and street navigation in one device. What we’d really love to see is the next version of this MouseGPS to be wireless Bluetooth as well.

A mouse and numpad combo seems like a great idea for accounting work but from looking at the Sanwa NT-MA2 one question comes to mind: How careful would the user have to be to use the device as a mouse without hitting the keys? If you look at the mouse there is a “num” button and I’m making a leap here, but if that button doesn’t lock the pad from accidental triggering of the keys then this device gets an “F”.

So far I’ve not been able to confirm that there is a lock but I have to assume the designers would think to include one, so if they did this could be a very handy 2-in-1 device for people who deal with numbers a lot.The mouse is a simple style USB mouse with just the two buttons and scroll wheel. The 53mm x 108mm x 33mm mouse comes in silver or black and is priced at 40 Eur.

Gyration is hoping to impress you with new motion-sensing technology built into a mouse. The Gyration M2000 Travel Air-Mouse is priced at around $70 and should be available early next year.

The mouse reportedly works within 100 feet of its host computer, has an ergonomic design and lets one “initiate any command with a flick of the wrist.”

Microsoft has announced the launch of its new Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 designed for use with notebook computers providing wireless mousing without the need for any transceiver sticking out of your USB port.

According to Microsoft, over half of the notebooks shipping next year are likely to have Bluetooth built-in, and a wireless Bluetooth mouse makes connectivity even more convenient than a traditional wireless mouse that requires a separate piece plugged into your notebook to receive the signal.

Repeat after me…Microsoft Mobile Memory Mouse, Microsoft Mobile Memory Mouse, Microsoft Mobile Memory Mouse. Tongue tied yet? Silly name aside Microsoft unveiled today what could be an interesting notebook mouse – the Mobile Memory Mouse 8000, priced at around $100 and available next month.

The Microsoft MMM 8000 (not real model number but I’m tired of typing out the title) is designed for those who want to cut down on excessive USB port hogging on their laptops. The mouse has 1GB of flash memory on board for storing files, uses a magnetic charging system for keeping it up and running as you work and can connect to a PC wirelessly via 2.4GHz wireless or Bluetooth. All that and it looks pretty to boot.

Fujitsu today unveiled a new product in PC security that uses “palm vein biometric authentication” to secure access to computers called the PalmSecure PC Login Kit. The kit comes in two versions, one as a standard which incorporates the palm vein scanner and the other that doubles as a standard computer mouse with the vein reader built in.

The palm vein device from Fujitsu uses a newer type of authentication which uses near-infrared rays to identify the unique patterns of veins in a persons hand. The system promises to provide secure authentication since no two persons vein patterns are exactly alike, and is touchless providing a more hygenic biometric authentication than touching a fingerprint scanner. Also, since the technology looks for deoxidized hemoglobin in the veins to reflect the pattern a hand with no blood pumping …

IOGEAR apparently has a new mouse out today which does Bluetooth, uses lasers and also kills germs as well. The IOGEAR Bluetooth Laser Mouse with Nano Technology is priced at around $80 and available in a variety of locations.

The IOGEAR Bluetooth Laser Mouse offers up a 1600 dpi laser sensor to offer greater mouse movement accuracy as you point and click on screen. Wireless Bluetooth functionality lets you operate the mouse up to 30 feet away, though your computer must be Bluetooth enabled. The germ fighting characteristic comes via “antimicrobial properties built in to protect the product from bacteria surviving on its surface.”
