Turtle Mouse: Love It or Leave It?

It seems that there are an infinite number of ways to create a mouse.

It seems that there are an infinite number of ways to create a mouse. Whether it's classy and minimal, or out for attention, mice are an essential part of your computing life (unless you prefer your trackpad, of course). I don't mind a little flair on my mouse, but I find that the more bling it has going on, the more distracted I am when surfing the Internet or trying to work. That said, I'm pretty sure I could go for this USB Turtle Mouse ($12), mostly cause I have a thing for the real deal. However, I wish it were wireless. Call me crazy, but I just don't like the sight of a cord coming out of the little guy's mouth. What do you think?

Totally Geeky or Geek Chic? Leather Mouse With USB

At first glance, I assumed these were BlackBerry 8700's wrapped with luxurious leather covers.

At first glance, I assumed these were BlackBerry 8700's wrapped with luxurious leather covers. Guess again! Previewed on Akihabara News, this is not a BlackBerry, but a two-button leather mouse by Earth Trek. My hand is practically glued to my mouse all day so I don't think I could use this mouse, which seems more fashionable than functional. Although it does boast a 4-port USB hub, which we all know I could put to good use. What do you think? Somewhat chic or a tad on the geeky side? Leave your comments below!
