Checking out the sale items on Buy.com’s Weekly Deals was probably not the smartest thing for me to do when I got home today, but of course I’m a glutton for punishment and couldn’t resist.
Of course this week they have something that would normally be in my immediate price range (if it weren’t for assholes in the medical field) and I seriously want it.
Geeks and…other geeks: I present to you the Logitech MX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse.
Are you drooling with me yet? No? Then check the link and watch the little intro video! This thing is awesome! It’s what every mouse will now strive to be, and I’m not even kidding! The new scroll wheel works in either the normal short click way that we’re all used to, or you can give it a spin and it’ll spin freely to scroll through long documents!
There’s more though! The button underneath the scroll wheel is for searching!! Highlight a word or phrase and then click the button to search using your favorite engine!!
My favorite part is that it comes with a charging station for its rechargeable lithium ion battery!! *head explodes*
I love having a wireless setup for my desktop. When I got my new desktop, I stuck with the default keyboard and mouse that came with it because I got tired of changing the batteries in my mouse. Problem solved!
As you can see, my mouse is currently trapped. The cord follows behind those CDs, behind my desk to the back of my tower which sits about floor level. We fight. Often.
I miss my old, cordless friends. I miss the freedom of having intermittent chats on the comp while I’m actually sitting on the couch playing a video game–yeah, it really gets that dorky around here!
You wouldn’t believe just how badly I want this thing. I must’ve read over the specs five times now! Of course it’s Logitech which I thoroughly trust and enjoy when it comes to my accessories and it has a 3-year warranty! It’s $68.33 with a $30 rebate making it only $38.33!!! With free shipping, of course! I could’ve bought it if I hadn’t tried to be so responsible by going to the stupid doctor!
Haha how crazy is it that I feel my money would’ve been better spent on a frickin’ amazing mouse as opposed to my health?
I hope this deal is still around when I get paid this week. It may be time for a not-so-responsible impulse buy…
EDIT: You’re not gonna believe this! I picked Ryan up tonight and he told me he got his computer fixed–the cooling unit was just loose. He also got a new keyboard and mouse…to which of course I brought up finding a mouse that I’m obsessed with getting now……yeah you see where this is going. He got the Logitech MX Revolution!!! I’m really jealous right now. I think before it’s all over with, he’s gonna end up giving me the money to buy this one—they paid just over $100 for his so I definitely found the better deal!
EDIT 6/4: I bought it today! It’s on its way!!!
