The laser light used in the MX 1000 relies on a short wavelength; the MX 1000 mouse is approximately 20 times more sensitive to surface details than conventional optical mice, according to the company. The result is that the mouse works even on surfaces like ceramic tile, lacquered furniture, metal, photo paper or opaque gl@$$ unlike normal optical mouse.
Logitech says the $79 MX 1000 is the first commercial mouse to come with a laser. The company will introduce a new line of keyboards later in the month, company spokesman Nathan Papadopulos said.
The MX 1000 features 10 control buttons, including a button in the thumb holster that enables users to switch applications. Horizontal navigation is also possible by nudging the scroll wheel, a feature in Microsoft mice.
