Mousing on any surface? Logitech wants you can do it. The companies that has bought us mice and keyboards for over two decades has now come up with a new technology called Darkfield that allows mousing to be done on any surface – granite, wood and even glass!
Their new Anywhere Mouse M905 is the company’s party piece for the ultimate mousing experience, anywhere. A travel mouse, the M905 is one of the more low-profile mice I have ever seen on sale. Two-thirds the size and height of their Revolution Vx Nano mouse, the M905 will fit in any laptop case with ease.
The usual buttons are present – back, forward, left, right and a multifunction button that can be reassigned. The M905 also comes with Logitech’s new Unifying technology dongle where with one dongle, multiple devices can be connected. The scroll wheel is just that, a scroll wheel. Click it to free run it, click it again for precise scrolling. Thus the third mouse button needs to be assigned to the malfunction button. Battery life on the M905 is quite mind boggling – 4 months on two AAs, and 2 with 1 AA. Yes, it can run with either one or two batteries so it can save on weight. There’s even a power switch to turn off the mouse when not in use to save on battery life.
Yes, it does work on glass surfaces – in fact any surfaces, even on human skin!
