Wireless mice are great, but when that battery poops out on you, and you're without spare power, suddenly your entire business shuts down. You simply can't navigate your PC.

Genius' DX-ECO Mouse ditches the friendly batteries in favor of a gold capacitor. What does that mean to you? In just 3-minutes time this mouse can be charged to full and last for what the company says is a complete work day. Additionally, it can be recharged up to 100,000 times, which means that this mouse will be well outdated before its capacitor fizzles out.

And just because it doesn't sport a traditional rechargeable battery, or at the very least a slot for one, that doesn't mean Genius has forgone any of the standard features you've come to expect from your wireless mouse. It can work at up to a distance of 15 meters, includes a tiny micro receiver, 4-way scrolling, adjustable dpi (800/1600 dpi), next/previous page hot keys and a blue optical mouse, or as the company calls it, a "BlueEye" sensor, that is said to work on dusted glass, carpet and marble.Read more
