Logitech brings the Revolution (mouse) to laptops

Logitech's Revolution VX mouse, which debuted last year, did a decent job of keeping true to its name by bringing some new abilities to the point-and-click table. One of them — hyperfast scrolling, which lets you blaze through a long document with a quick spin of the scroll wheel — stood out from the rest, and it features prominently on the VX Nano, a new cordless version of the VX for laptops.

Also featured on the VX Nano are five (!) programmable buttons, all customizable to do whatever you like — say, save a document or switch toggle through weapons in that new shooter. A pair of AAA batteries should keep you clicking up to six months, according to Logitech. Our favorite feature is the insanely small USB dongle (using 2.4-GHz wireless tech), even though it has a high you'll-probably-lose-this factor.

Coming in August, the VX Nano is priced at $80. Or is it $70? That's what the press release says, but the product page says $80. Ten buck is ten bucks, yo.
