Moldable Mouse takes the perfect shape

moldable_mouse.jpg

Great ergonomic strides have been made in the past few years in the field of pointing devices, but this Moldable Mouse design concept by Lite-On takes user-friendliness to its limit. The mouse is made of lightweight modeling clay with a flexible polyurethane and nylon fabric cover that lets you mold it into whatever shape is most comfortable for you.

If your hand gets tired of mousing in one position during a long day at work or play, just morph this pointer into an entirely different shape. You can even place the radio-frequency controlled stick-on mouse buttons and touch-sensitive scroll pad in different positions, too. This design concept was clever enough to win a 2007 Red Dot Design Award in the category of Productivity and Work.

Now this is a cool idea. Instead of you having to get used to the mouse, the mouse gets used to you.
