The mouse has remained largely unchanged for some time now. Sure, it’s gotten smaller, wireless, had buttons added and buttons removed and now, it’s gotten a microphone and a speaker.

This is the unsurprisingly named, 3-in-1 Mouse with Speaker and Microphone, an average 800dpi mouse with the new add-ons designed to let you make and take Internet-based phone calls, using software like Skype, MSN etc. The mic, you’ll be happy to know, is detachable so you can use the mouse without the extra appendage in between all those VoIP calls. It looks like the mic can actually be plugged directly into your laptop which would make it a little less cumbersome to use.

Still, let’s remember that including postage ‘anywhere in the world’, the , 3-in-1 Mouse with Speaker and Microphone costs less than a tenner here so it’s hardly the biggest online shopping mistake you’ll ever make.-Martin Lynch
