Robomouse

Who would've thought that a mouse can fly?
They can't, but this one glows!
Haha! My boyfriend always finds it funny how I get attracted to lights and colors when it comes to choosing new gadgets. Sure we debate endlessly on specs, pros, and cons, and price but add a glowing colorful light to any gadget ( or anything for that matter) and you got me. I will even tie a leash around my back and hand it over to you. I will even give you my wallet. (Do not exaggerate, I think the point is quite clear). I'm just saying that my purely visual sense of judgement kicks in.
Check out the Razer Naga Epic mouse! I'm not going to do a tech review here because I would just be insulting the item. Just know that I am an average tech savvy person who loves computers, who can usually troubleshoot but would also pick up the phone to call a friend for help. I do games but my choices range from the simple bejeweled to the sims to a cute mmo rpg angels online. Still, this mouse rocks!

Love the 12 programmable buttons on the mouse, the configuration software with cool macro recording, the glowing light that cycles the color spectrum, the wired/ wireless capability, and the ergonomic grips that are changeable. I use the claw.

It's agood thing that there are vendors of Razer products here. Two days after, I got the Kabuto mousepad which is just awesome for mobility use.

So now that I don't have time yet to play games and do combos and record macros, I just programmed the buttons for basic keyboard shortcuts and app launches. Sometimes I just turn off the lights and stare at the mouse. It's now one of the contenders in my happy thoughts list...

Goodbye prs. How dare you die on me?!

My trusted prs 505 just said goodbye. Wait, it didn't even say goodbye. It just flopped upside down like a fish. After almost three years, it gave up. I'm guessing it's because a friend sat on it in the car. Next day when I turned it on the screen is split into two. Good luck to me in having it repaired here in the Phils. I got it when I was in the US and I left everything, box, cd, receipts there. Also, based on feedback from users with similar cases, Sony sucks when it comes to support and customer service. So now I say goodbye to you prs. I will lovingly caress your blue leather cover that has tons of scratches as a result of being headbutted by my keys and pens and pointy things in my bag because I bring you with me all the time. *tear*
So now, moving on... Hello Kindle!
