    The future of the mouse is in question.

    It seems like there'd be a significant lag time, decreasing MP performance. Oh well; I'm sure it'll improve over time.

      That's cool. But man that would get really tiring after a while. I wonder how hard WiC would be?

          Combine that with the OCZ neural impulse actuator = :awes?

          But as long as they'll be USB ports, they'll be mice. So I wouldn't worry too much.

              Hmm, I think it needs a few more years development. It looks like that has a lot of potential, but it should not be marketed to gaming just yet, where twitch movements make or break a round. I'm not too keep on making big sweeping motions either, and I'm wondering if it would go over board with the wrong things.

              But down the road this is going to be something everyone is going to have to get used to in someway or another.

                      Nope, never gonna make it big, too many small movements that you would have to learn how to do...

                              lol it would be kinda cool for normal pc use.. As for gaming it would get a bit too tiring and tediouse.

                                  Just a gimmick and nothing more.

                                      This would look kinda cool on flight sims, training perhaps?

                                                      Cool concept, not a one that will go to market though.

                                                          Intersting, but I would rather have something like the Wii remote than this.
