The USB Input Device is a gray area as just about everything could fall here, so I try and keep it to those “true” input devices like keyboards, mice, etc.
The Fuggly Waterproof Mouse
Not the best looking USB mouse, but it does hold one unique characteristic…it’s waterproof. Yep, you can now browse the web, underwater, safe and secure. Putting some traditional yellow to signify the waterproof feature would help the look, but not by much.
The redeeming quality for this USB gadget is the application in hospitals, weathered / outdoor applications or possibly chemical laboratories as the mouse is chemical resistant as well.
The USB waterproof mouse is sealed with high quality silicone making it possible to clean, disinfect and even wash under water without harm or damage.
So if you happen to be a pool bartender, restaurant owner of just a slob, you can pick up the waterproof mouse for $37.
Lindy 57-in-1 Mirror Card Reader and Mirror Hub
Over the course of 2007 we have seen our share of jewelry USB drives, now we see vanity making it’s way into the market place. The new Lindy USB Mirror 57-in-1 Card reader and Mirror USB hub are now available for high tech connection and personal reflection.
Stephen Fawcett, Senior Product Manager states:
When we asked our development team to come up with a compact device we didn’t really expect them to literally deliver a ‘compact’. Fortunately, they didn’t include the powder in the spec. But it’s very handy for checking you haven’t left a bit of marmite on your chin or seeing what colleagues are up to behind your back.”
Unfortunately the Lindy website isn’t up to date with this press release, but GetUSB did find the card reader will go for 22.99 and the hub for 14.99 USD.

Palmar Hyperhidrosis Dream Machine
We started out with a USB a$$ blower a while back, now we have the USB optiwind mouse, the ideal Palmar Hyperhidrosis USB gadget. With over 28 CFM airflow those sweaty palms will never be wet again.
The USB optiwind mouse has a little more RPM than the USB seat blower we reported a while back (1500 rpm).
For the tech palmer hyperhidrosis type consider the 800 dpi, 25dBA noise level spec and MTFG of 20,000 POH.
Give Your Mouse The Finger
I believe the optical finger mouse is a key component to a successful multi-tasker as it allows your fingers never to leave the keyboard so you can crank through those blog posts – o maybe a mobile environment where a flat surface isn’t available.
USB Fever is set to release an all new 2.4Ghz wireless Optical Finger Mouse with USB dongle at just $27. Include a wireless keyboard and become the ultimate mobile office worrier.
The finger mouse comes with 3 ring sizes and great resolution of 1000dpi along with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery which powers up via USB cable.
Hybrid KVM Switch Made of Cables
Aten introduces a new hybrid USB KVM switch made mostely of cables. The 2 port flexible design easily expands the connection of monitor, PS/2 keyboard and mouse.
What Aten did with their new KVM switch design is insert a remote port for selecting between computers from an extender switch (as pictured).
The video supports 2048 x 1536 and runs on Win 2000, XP, Vista, Linux and FreeBSD. No power supply is needed to run the KVM switch, just plug-n-play.
Paint It Pink USB Mouse Kit
Do woman really love the pink gadgetry? The Pink Toolbox offers up a Pink PC Kit which includes a fancy tin box, wireless mouse with USB dongle and mouse pad. Of course – all pink – so for those females who’ve gone geek, jump on board with the USB Pink PC Kit for $25.
USB Keyboard With Built In Touch Screen for Handwriting Recognition
Not meant for the left-handed this USB keyboard includes a built-in touch screen and stylus for handwriting recognition.
Not a bad idea for some applications like log-in procedures or signature requirements before payment.
Although the information is limited, the concept is good. Interested in dropping $25 on this USB keyboard. Buy from: DealExteme.
