I think it is a great idea too, however what happens if you are on the phone (or on the mouse in this case) and you want to go through some emails or lookup something online while talking?

With a laptop you have a fall back (your integrated mousepad) however if you have it on a docking station or you use a desktop then you may have a problem.

Yes, that would definitely be a problem…

I don’t think so! You can’t use the mouse if you are talking. (n)

I’ve worked in a company (years ago) that sold this mouse-phones. It was a FAILURE. No one buy it.

dont think that this wil work, always talkin on the phone you are not just talking, you do some additional tings, and when the case is skype-that is free- your talks will go for many minutes, if not hours an you will want to do sth on computer instead of just talking, as Johan said, may be you will be talking about sth that you will want to look up in computer.
you will need mouse, idea does not work
P.S nice design Mike, but this mess of banners on the right…

Totally bad design. What if, i need to interact with my browser or applications while talking? I definitely need a mouse at that time. Even though it is from SONY, I will think twice or more before buying it.

Nice design by the way,michael

Close, but no cigar. What it needs is an integrated speakerphone and a detachable pen to doodle with.

If you want a Mac Skype-certified phone, you can always try our Cyberphone W for Mac that as of yesterday, is the first Skype-certified product to be sold in Apple stores!

Watch out for Apple’s online store and Skype store stocking it soon!

Now I understand why Scottie picked up the mouse and tried to talk into it in Star Trek (the movie).

It is a great design but I am afraid that it is not the thing that I am looking for after all as often when phone comes and I have to check something from net- this will cause more problem then support me. I am just curious to know if you can use it as a phone and mouse at the same time.

Using phone precludes using mouse - my first reaction too

This is too obvious a problem not to have been addressed by Sony. They must have an easy solution.

If not, we may be on the verge of the 2006 version of Irrational Exuberance and the Internet Bubble

this product can be bought at dynamism.com . they also have a short description of the mouse and some pics..

Really not all that practical as I almost always tend to fiddle with the mouse while on the phone to multitask. However, this might be a better step in the right direction:

Have the mouse come with a smal device that fits snuggly into the top of the mouse as part of the design. It clips in to the palm section until a call is needed. The user can unclip it and attach it to their ear as a bluetooth headset which is automatically paired with the mouse! Now that’s thinking and will look really cool. When it’s back in the mouse it automatically gets charged via the usb connection. C’mon Sony!

People: yes, this is a dumb product for desktop users but notebook users should like it fine!

great idea. too bad it isn’t wireless.

I am right now starring at my 2 year old mouse… Not exactly dust free. I would not want to use that as a phone without a regular clean-up!

Terrible idea. It solves no problems, but creates a few new ones. It’s completely pointless. waste of time, and investments.

I liked this device so much I got two - you can get them from Sony Style Europe - it also has an integrated speaker phone - but its only practical for laptops. Love the fact I don’t have to lug around headsets anymore. Now if they only offered a wireless version too

There is a similar product out by YapperNut, only $25.

They should consider adding a plug on the mouse/phone to connect a headset as an option….

even a tiny earplug with a tiny mic - might be more convenient than nothing at all…

But, they are beautiful.

BTW:
your newest Blog design is also interesting

I’m a fan of the YapperMouse. Let’s me leave a headset behind when packing my notebook. Better precision than any of my other mice, and a strangely interesting vibration when the phone rings; kind of a programmable vibra-tone vs. ring tone.

dumb idea!!
Next step is probably the Fax-mouse, the modem-mouse and the gsm-mouse. I proposed the coffee machine-mouse (still have to solve some heat problem though!) and the dildo-mouse (for desperate housewives only)…

It’s really a Cool combo!!
Patrick, what u’r talking about is a PDA all right ?

An amazingly horrible idea.

I have many mouse Skype products ,I will sale them with good price ,
If you need it ,tell me please!
