Brighthand Reviews The Stowaway BT Mouse
Posted by Janak Parekh in "ARTICLE" @ 10:00 AM
"I use a keyboard to write emails and Brighthand articles on my handheld all the time. I haven't carried a laptop on a trip in years. However, when I'm writing, it's really irritating that, in order to highlight some text or open a menu, I have to pick up the stylus, tap somewhere on the screen, and put the stylus down again before I can resume typing. The Stowaway Travel Mouse makes this whole process much simpler. After literally decades of practice, reaching to the right, grabbing a mouse, and using it to control an on-screen cursor is second nature, and significantly faster than doing the same task with a stylus. "

Overall, this looks like a pretty useful device and, paired with a BT keyboard, it might be a laptop replacement for some. I'd like to have seen some more pictures to get a feel for the size -- do any of you have it and care to comment how big the entire (Pocket PC + keyboard + mouse) bundle is?
