Porsche car mouse, wireless car mouse
Fast cars and computer enthusiasts seem to go together quite nicely, so when we were given the chance to take a look at 'motor mouse' we couldn't say no. How can you go wrong with a 2.4GHz wireless mouse that is based on an iconic sports car? The Motormouse was designed to be a classy, yet fully functional 2.4GHz 3-button wireless mouse. We'll jump right in and see what this mouse has to offer.
The Motormouse is available in Silver, Black, Pink and Red, but they also have a Blue version available by special order via telephone. Motormouse came to market in 2009 and the original version had three mouse sensitivities (400,800,1600 DPI) that you could change through on the fly. In order to do this you simply hold down the two click buttons for three seconds until the headlights flash, then let go. This moves to the next sensitivity setting and you can go though the settings and see which you like. Motormouse has done away with that model and on the new 2010 models the DPI setting is fixed at 1200 DPI, but sensitivity can be changed by going onto the settings on your computer through the control panel. When I found this bit of information out I knew that this mouse wasn't just a novelty gag gift and is something that was actually designed to look good and be functional.
The Motormouse has superb full color packaging with clear images of the of the product and all the key features of the
mouse itself. Our package looks rather beat up as it was sent through the post from the UK to the United States and looks like someone drop kicked it a few times.
