Targus Ultra Mini Optical Mouse with Retractable Cord

The Targus Ultra Mini Optical Mouse is one of a handful of mice on the market with a retractable USB cord. This pocket-size device comes in at a mere 1.5 ounces. It has no moving parts thanks to its optical sensor. It includes left and right mouse buttons and a scroll wheel. It works with both Windows and Mac OS and no drivers needed.

 

Wireless Mouse

If you want to move away from the connected mouse then look at this wireless device. The wireless pointers are thinner than a standard optical mouse so it takes up less room and travels easily. It’s sleek and symmetrical which will work for both lefties and righties. When it’s not in use, the device automatically goes to sleep to conserve battery power.

If you want to improve your laptop audio and the integrated speakers don’t do the job, look at Creative speakers. The i-Trigue 200 are the ones for you. This small and compact two-piece set delivers clear and loud stereo sound. You get a headphone jack for private listening, a built-in volume knob, and three snap-on color faceplates that can be changed as quickly and easily as the tunes you’re listening to.
