One of my favorite laptop accessories is the Newton Peripherals MoGo, a palm sized mouse which stores and charges in a laptop’s PCMCIA slot.

But what if you use a laptop that has given up the full-sized PCMCIA slot for its Express-sized cousin? Well up until last week, you would have been out of luck. However…

MoGo Express

Jack at Experience Mobility recently posted about the MoGo Mouse X54, the solution for those whose laptops didn’t come with the full size PCMCIA slot.

According to Jack:

The MoGo Mouse X54™, introduced today, is a Bluetooth-enabled wireless mouse designed for mobile computer users whose laptops are equipped with an ExpressCard/54 slot, including those manufactured by Acer, Dell, Fujitsu, Gateway, HP, Lenovo, NEC and Toshiba. It folds flat, stores and recharges in the ExpressCard/54 slot, and delivers a full range of user benefits, including:

Built-in center scrolling capability through an integrated scroll pad;

  • Integrated battery that recharges when stored in ExpressCard/54 slot;
  • No software drivers required;
  • More user-intuitive feel, with deeper finger depressions for more natural operation
  • “Auto-on” functionality when the mouse is removed from the laptop’s ExpressCard/54 slot

What? Did I read this correctly? This version has scrolling capability?!!

Be still my beating heart…

Clever. Ingeneious. Perfect. Love it!
