Nyko AirFlo mouse

Nyko AirFlo mouse
My new mouse for the office - on the face of things it's a pretty standard optical mouse (3 button and wheel) but built into the interior is a little case fan that blows cool air onto your palm! They are quite reasonable too! Not sure I would use one at home as it isn't exactly whisper quiet but in the office (with it's general ambient babble) you can't detect it at all... ;)

So I'm going to have a nice cool mouse-hand this summer... :)

interesting. I always find my mouse hand is colder, I think because I have my arm out straighter and the blood can't be bothered to travel to the end or something??? great gimmick for a mouse anyway!

Hehe...you need to tell those naughty blood cells to stop being so lazy! Your fingers have needs! ;)

I LOVE this mouse and have been using one for 5 years on my main work PC, under constantly HEAVY use, with no problems. This mouse has been dropped, slammed against my desk, stepped on, and other things that have killed mice that cost 5 times more. I rarely use the fan but it does come in handy during those late night coding sessions or marathon gaming. The paint has worn off where my hand and mousepad is rubbing it away, but it still performs just as good as when it was new. Even the fan still works flawlessly! I was lucky enough to get a great deal on 2 of them back in 2003 and will break out the other one if this one ever fails. I don't think that they are making them any longer so jump on one if you get the chance!
