Animal Computer Mice: Shopping For A Six Year-Old?

GeekSugar — Fri, 27 Jul 2007 05:00:06 PDT

I'm all about function with it comes to technology. Does it work? Will it end in disaster? Can I rely on this device? Does it do something truly exciting? And so, I cannot honestly recommend this selection of animal mice for any other reason besides their cuteness.

But boy, oh boy, are they cute. My favorite of the pack is the Kitty Optical Computer Mouse, which was designed by Swiss manufacturer Pat Says Now. The $38 three-button optical wheel mouse features USB connection and works for PC and Mac.

Apple to Announce iCloud, iOS 5, and OSX Lion Details at 2011 WWDC

Historically, WWDC has meant iPhone mania for geeks around the world, but since this year's model is said to be delayed for another few months, Apple has to fill the gaps with something juicy. Enter Apple's rumored cloud storage service, dubbed iCloud. In a press release earlier this morning, Apple confirmed these announcements, which are to be delivered by Steve Jobs himself (along with his team of executives) on Monday, June 6. We'll be following the events live, but you can get an idea of what to expect from each service below!

iCloud
iCloud should allow you to sync your music, folders, emails, contacts, and documents across multiple machines, making it easier to go from your desktop to laptop to iPad when you're on the go. Additionally, iCloud may have an integrated media stream, which would allow you to view and edit your images and videos from all of your machines. Of course, iCloud wouldn't be complete without some sort of music storage feature, so expect Apple to show up prepared to battle against Google's Music Beta. In a perfect world, this iCloud service would be free for all Mac users, but I'm guessing it will come with a price, just like MobileMe did at its launch.

iOS 5
Little is known about the next iOS update, but we may be able to expect better notifications, improved voice recognition software, and possibly widgets.

Get the details on OSX Lion after the jump.
