1. Try a graphics tablet
I originally got my Wacom graphics tab for graphics work, but using a pen as a mouse is great. Much lighter and faster. Still the damn cord though...

4. I have one with no cord on the pen
I love it. Also saw the other day a totally soft, see-through rubber keyboard - It felt great. Think I might get that soon.

2. Helped me Mom set herts up
this weekend and all I can say is DAAAMMMNNNNN! That is SWEEEETTTT!

Awsome invention. Simply incredable. No more wires, no more mess. The draw back...Now we will have copnversations that go along the lines of :

"Honey. Where's the mouse?"
"How the hell should I know! You let the kids use the computer."
"Mom! Where's the remote control?"
"Damnit...How I yearn for the days when you had to walk across the room to change the channel and the mouse was connected to ther damn computer so it never got lost!"

3. Nahhh-- WiFi trumps that!
Wireless EVERYTHING!

With WiFi (IEEE802.11b/g), you can sit out in the GARDEN
with your laptop and still be connected to the world at Ethernet
speeds!

Then again, if Ray Kurzweil's predictions come true, we're about
10 years or so from wireless, cybernetically-enhanced HUMANS!
Now THAT will be something! (Exactly what, I'm not sure, but
it will be something!)
