Yes, Apple now has a two button mouse for sale!

Sadly, they don’t have the Bluetooth version yet Due to my inherent
hatred of cables on the desktop, I’ll have to wait until that comes
out, then I can retire my wireless Microsoft mouse – which never sat
well with the mac really. Perhaps I’ll use the old wireless mouse in my
crazy mac mod instead?

Drat!

P.S. bonus points to anyone who remembers the last time “Hell Froze Over” in the Mac world. Anyone?

I jumped aboard the 3G bandwagon a while back with a free Sanyo S750
from Orange. I’ve had a mixed time with that – very poor battery life
with the 3G on for one, but that’s a rant for another day.

For now I wanted to relay my current object of gadget lust, which I’m
eyeing up as a replacement for the (shitty) Sanyo thing I have.

It’s the HTC Universal – info in chinese with lots of pics here
Here’s a press release about it too
And some Engadget coverage

It looks very shiny – both 3G and WiFi for data access in & out
of home/office, a big screen and even something approaching a real
keyboard for mo-blogging and even writing of proper long documents,
whoo!

I think the main thing that attracts me is the software aspect – being
Windows-based I can actually add my own code, and also hopefully all
the connectivity like synchronising calendards & address books will
actually work, unlike my current phone, which is just sooo rubbish it
drives me crazy.

One more thing: it’s due to come out in the UK ‘sometime this year’ as
an Orange SPV something-or-other. If anyone from Orange wants me to
give it a trial I would be very happy to oblige

EDIT: it would also play a mean game of Manic Miner using a spectrum emulator… yay!
