Logitech Debuts Wireless Touchpad, The Trackpad For PC Desktops

PC users can finally enjoy the desktop experience of using a wireless trackpad of which Mac users have been enjoying ever since Apple released its Magic Trackpad. Logitech's latest peripheral is called the Wireless Touchpad, and it's a much bulkier and less streamline wireless trackpad for desktop use than its Magic Trackpad rival. Logitech's Wireless Touchpad features a wide 5" multi-touch finger tracking surface for various different types of multi-touch gestures similar to what is possible on the Magic Trackpad and packs an impressive 4 month battery life. Although the Wireless Touchpad is more affordable at $49.99, it lacks Bluetooth connectivity that forces you to make room for its tiny 2.4Ghz USB wireless receiver. The Logitech Wireless Touchpad is expected to be available later this week.

HP Announces First WiFi Mobile Mouse

While HP's latest WiFi connected wireless mouse isn't going to win any design awards anytime soon, it's the world's first WiFi wireless mouse with an impressive 9-month battery life. No other wireless mouse currently on the market comes even close to this. HP claims it's an easy one-time pairing process on Windows 7 while Mac users will have to settle for their Magic Mouse instead. HP claims that in order to pair over WiFi, a PC running Windows 7 is required. If you're a Mac user, there is nothing here to keep you interested anyway. The 1600cpi laser sensor and 5 programmable buttons are still very basic. The HP WiFi Mobile Mouse will be available in June for $49.99. I think I'll stick with my Razer mice for now.

Psyko's new Krypton PC gaming headset with 5.1 surround sound now replaces the discontinued Psyko 5.1 gaming headset and its set to improve on audio quality, removable mic mounting and reduce sound leakage. Paired with the new Psyko Krypton gaming headset is a Psyko Amplifier used to power and drive these huge headphones with fully adjustable bass and volume control. A neat little feature on the Kryptons allow you to easily talk with your buddies around you without having to remove the headset thanks to the side ear cup vents that pivot open and also let cool air flow in. The Krypton set will run you $149.99.

The Carbon gaming headset will set you back $199.99, and it too packs all the same features as the Krypton but adds small extras like gold plated connectors, braided tangle-free cable and more high-performance speakers. These headsets were designed specifically for gaming and pwning noobs with real 5.1 surround sound, sounds good to me. Both the Carbon and Krypton gaming headsets are available right now.
