Description:

For those who have had it with the touch pads on their iBooks and PowerBooks, a mouse is finally available. The Macally iMouse Jr. has all the capabilities of a full-size mouse but has been scaled down for easy transport. Just plug it into the USB port on your Mac and get to work. The cord is extra long so you can maneuver better if you're in a tight space. For example, the mouse glides smoothly against a denim-clad leg while sitting crunched up at a small table with a cup of coffee and laptop in front of you.

Shaped somewhat like a kidney, the iMouse Jr. is ergonomically designed to prevent hand cramping. The end sports two elongated buttons that are fully programmable. Decked out in a bright, translucent blue, the iMouse Jr. will complement, if not exactly match, your Mac products.

If you have kids under five, consider replacing your usual mouse with this little guy while they're at the computer. The size makes it an ideal starter mouse while your kids become familiar with using new technology and systems.

The iMouse Jr. is 100-percent Mac compatible (though you'll need OS 8.5.1 or higher) and has a resolution of 300 dpi. And if you ever have any problems, Macally offers a lifetime warranty and guarantees any faulty product will be repaired or replaced. --Dana Van Nest
