Washable Mouse

LOL Danny. I totally agree with you.

No, it's for those people who get their hands extremely sweaty while using their computers.
...Mmmm, that didn't sound any better.

Or if you're like me and eat in front of the pc most of the time food happens to fall on the mouse or you use the mouse with fingers that are greasy an it starts to build up on the mouse.

Eh? Never seen anything like that here before. Next they'll start making washable oppai mousepads for umm... sticky fingers?

I take most of my meals in front of my PC. It's my one size fits all media center, and we americans love to eat watching tv.

Because of this though, my keyboard and mouse get dirty easily. although I never have to "wash" my mouse. Just wipe it down every now and again and scrape a little grime out between the cracks.

Or, if you can't stay away from DC.com, even while bathing... ^^;

well...i dunno dolphins live in the water...makes sense to me

Belkin only needs a washable keyboard and they will have finally struck gold

www.wetkeys.com

"A totally unique typing experience - our solid silicone washable keyboard is spill and food proof, flexible, and practically indestructible. Soft to the touch, it's MUCH more comfortable to use than an ordinary plastic keyboard. Pair with a washable mouse for total desktop freedom! "

Actually I think it's just a good idea in general... Washable keyboard would be nice too.

Hmm... underwater computer anyone? So you can surf DC.com while you're in the bathtub? XD

I doubt i will never get to the point where i HAVE to actually WASH my mouse.
Though, the pads on the bottom pickup dust like crazy... but that's a different issue

waterproof mouse will be good ^^ always wanted to use my mouse in bathtub.

My thoughts exactly. I like how companies are beginning to make products that can adapt to our healthier lifestyle in front of the comp.

I wonder if you can put it in a dishwasher.

Is it wireless?

LOL I think I fall in the eat in front of computer category ^^;

I thought keyboards and mice were already washable? Just get a paper towel and some rubbing alcohol and wipe... good as new.

we sell these in PC world, and i dont think they're a "big" seller, normally people tend to avoid and go for the cheapest logitech wireless mouse.

the problem is that the mouse is wired so its kinda annoying to use it in a bath :P

I think any ordinary could be washed isn't? Back then I usually wash my trackball mouse under tap water and soap water. Good stuff to clean all those dust piled up.

no need to do it anymore with my current A4Tech XL-750F ^^

It's Belkin though! Belkin is a quality brand. At $46 Singaporean Dollars, it's not a cheapo mouse either.

i can somehow see how it makes sense... i have one of those white Microsoft optical mouse, and well it's not very white now... the buttons are covered with a layer of something dark and you can see the area where my finger was XD i wonder if there's a washable keyboard too cause i really need one LOL.

That cool. I need to get one of those cause my hands are always sweaty after intense gaming

i could use one... my white Microsoft optical mouse is not that white now... more like gray and you can see where i put my fingers XD

next to the keyboard, the mouse is the most used human-computer interface. so it does get a little icky after awhile. kudos for this invention but i'm not too sure many will buy it? keyboards n mouse sets can be bought pretty cheap nowadays.

Kind of pointless. I'm sure a semi-wet cloth will do just fine.

Nah, a good wipe with some Dettol will do the cleaning..

LOL I tried not to think about that.

I think it's just okay if it's water-prrof, in case I spill coffee on it or something...not for THAT .

XD

LOL!!!@ danny xD

Must have especially for computers that are used by the whole family. Lots of germs are being transferred from each member's hands on to the mouse x_x

LOL. I never notice this washable mouse eventho im livin in singapore ^^; must be for some super clean-freak computer ppl. They should make washable oppai mousepad instead, haha XD

Taking care of our dolphins would be much more hygienic :D

although funny for the health reasons, i kinda get where their going with this...i mean like after long periods of time black dirt like stuff builds up on the clicker of my mouse...anyone else have that happen to them?...

If you need this, you know you're taking dolphin care too seriously...

This is actually a really good idea, no matter how silly it sounds. We spend more and more time in front of computers and if you're using a public or even a family computer then that mouse is going to have been in contact with quite a few people. And remember, people aren't always as hygenic as we'd like. Of course, the flipside to the coin is that if we sanitise everything will we ever get a chance to build up resistance to germs? You can look at it both ways.

not anly nouse they will made washable speaker, keyboard,monitor,and pc so they can use computer in the bathroom

Hint: Using a Tenga makes for easier cleanup ^^;

lol it's for those who take a bath while using computer xD

I look at this, and can't help but think of <a href="http://www.seaslugteam.co.uk/soap.mov">this</a>.

I swear by Wet Ones - not antibacterial like Dettol, but skin safe, not as harsh and perfect for touchpads, too. Pick any muck out of the bodywork seams with a toothpick, and use a lens wipe on the optical pickups.

haha~ i also saw that one in Changi^^

I'll not wash my mouse, I'll take this healh risk :P

Wow a washable mouse, I'm guessing it's not for people who eat greasy pizza at the pc though.

LOL!! That's so true :D, taking care of health

My peripherals get dirty real easy... and it's not just from health care. Frequent usage contributes to that. =/

it's useful for those travellers, incase they spilled some wine or drink on the mouse, like on the plane

Seem interesting.. I have no problem with my mouse. I always clean my media room once a week.

Should make cleaning the mouse easier. Just fling the thing into the washing machine! XD

Yea LOL
But I think it's good coz it's kept clean... For those who want to be hygienic, or just feel like it...

I don't think I'll need one of those.
My hand is rarely sweaty and all..

lol washable mouse... washable keyboard makes more sense, they collect dust and dirt sooo easy.

I prefer washable laptop though.

seems like a marketing gimmick to me.

Cool. Is that white strip a scroll pad or what. I couldn't sacrifice a wheel now.

Just the other day, I gave my laser mouse a complete take-apart and clean-down (water and alcohol). I think there was lint or some debris making the mouse buttons not snappy to click. It feels much better to use now :S

sometimes I have to bathe with my laptop and washable mouse is perfect for me

Remembing me this http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=qm3tYrewde4

I wouldn't be surprised if this were to show up as a best seller at an anime store... but seriously, if its water tight, it would be good for users that work near areas with fluids... or if they are producing the fluids themselves whether it is internally done or externally ^^;

Maybe you can use it in a swimming pool as well...

AHAHAH, now otakus can wash their mouses incase they spill their "army" on them while watching some 2D action.

Computer mice are in the top 30 spots for bacteria at home...

Can come in handy when eating in front of the computer:)

haha, i'm using the logitech g7 right now, it's got this antisweat grip thing

hm..we should one day have water proof washable lap tops...then with this mouse.. play games while taking shower!? lol

a mouse? a screen maybe but a mouse?

Do they have a washable keyboard?

I lol'd at how it might be used. Pretty soon, keyboards, monitors, mousepads...

Interesting idea ^^

For a while, I thought it was a water proof mouse X_X

i think it would be more for germaphobes O_x not "healthy people" LOL

LOL, I should get some for some of my soldiers going to Iraq.

water proof keyboard would be a good ivention

Don't think I would need a washable mouse. I use wet tissue to clean my mouse(s). Hehe.

p.s. Missed Danny when he came to Singapore! :(

that's nice...
i never meet some S**t sticking on my mouse again....
hey...can i use dry cleaning?
is this mouse has special cleaning substance/fluid/water?

Not "that" health. You should see my mouse. Smooth plastic but the sweat and oil just helps accumulate dirt. Something like that should be on my list.

i always clean my mouse with wet tissue once a week :P

coz it get dirty ,when i play games to much ^O^

hey im using that mouse...i bought it from lowyatt in malaysia while i was studying there...

I think it is a bit handy, since mouse are getting dirty and sticky if you use it frequently.

Wow I will never have to worry about my mouse being dirty anymore XD

Computer mice and keyboards are area's prone to becoming excessively dirty and a prime breeding grounds for all sorts of microscopic germs and the mouse pad / keyboard pad are also just as bad. If you've got an old mouse pad take it to the kitchen sink and put a little liquid dish detergent on it and a little water and start scrubbing one side on the other then run water over it and you will start going "EEWWWWW!!!". I try to clean my mouse pad and mouse and keyboard on a regular basis but the keyboard is the hardest because liquids can damage the interface of the keyboard as I found out thanks to my daughter spilling her drink. The mouse is easier to clean with some rubbing alcohol or any cleaning agent with anti bacterial properties and grease cutting abilities ( our bodies do make oils to protect the skin ) and using cotton swabs on a stick for the hard to reach area's such as the rollers for the track ball.
