The Eclipse touchmouse drops the scroll wheel in favor of an integrated track pad. While the default for the touchscroll offers four-way screen scrolling by a user moving their index finger, a host of instantly accessible commands like flicking backward and forwards through webpages can be accessed through the mouse button and finger gesture combination.
Cased in an ergonomically designed “brushed aluminum” finish, the unit offers Bluetooth connectivity, 1600dpi laser technology, and runs on a single AA battery. There’s also a battery indicator with a power off switch as well.
The unique touchscroll module grants you the ease of use associated with a traditional horizontally scrolling tilt wheel and combines it with the precision of a notebook track pad. The touchscroll module’s default mode offers four-way on-screen scrolling, activated by simply moving your finger
quicktouch™ technology provides you with a host of instantly accessible commands which are accessed through a combination of mouse button and movements.
For example, you are able to move back and forward through web pages or even able to open a web browser window simply by pressing and holding the touchscroll module and moving the mouse in one of four directions
The Eclipse touchmouse is compatible with Windows 7, Vista and XP and is expected to be released later this year for US$59.99. (http://eclipsetouch.com)
