If you think that notebook and mouse combo is passé because of advanced touchpad and trackpad, think again. Logitech’s unique clip-and-go notebook mouse promises to give laptop users the efficiency they have when using desktop PCs with mouse.

Trackpads and touchpads are good, but experts agree that it cannot beat the functionality and efficiency that the mouse has. The only thing that hinders many laptop users from getting their mouse is the fact that the hour of mousing bliss is often replaced by the trouble of keeping your mouse safely as you move from table, desk or counter when using a laptop.

This is what drove Logitech to come up with the V550 Nano cordless laser mouse for notebooks. The V550 Nano features a 2.4 GHz wireless receiver that can be attached to a standard USB port. The mouse uses minimal power making it use two AA batteries for more 18 months.

But what separates V550 from other mice is its two Cli-and-Go docks: one silver and one black. This allows users to literally dock the mouse on their laptop, making it stay with you wherever you go.

This mouse works both with Windows PCs and Mac computers. It is tagged at $55.99.

I’m always wondering as to how the computer would evolve in the near future. News about developments in the IT industry litter dailies, both the traditional and electronic ones. New gadgets are born almost everyday, replacing their predecessors that we hardly even knew about.

One PC peripheral that I’m quite curious about as to how it would change or improve is the mouse. Well it already evolved a bit. In case you’re not aware of it, the net or Web page scroller located in between the two buttons of the device was not a staple a few years back.

Trackballs became popular a few years ago. Some had even suggested that it’s the new face and form of the mouse. But many found it too bulky and too difficult to use. While trackballs did not succeed in replacing the mouse, it did not totally disappear either. It became a different specie, so to speak.

What made the mouse survive evolutionary threats is its simplicity. With everything becoming complicated, the last thing that a PC user needs is a pointer or navigator that has 10 buttons and options that even its manufacturer cannot enumerate.
