Cyborg Gaming have unleashed their R.A.T. 9 gaming mouse – and it looks absolutely stunning.

It’s not short on features too; adjustable size, weighting and thumb rests, metal chassis, 5600 DPI laser with a button by your thumb to up the DPI even higher, and its wireless with rechargeable batteries.

So Christmas and the winter holiday season is nearly upon us – so you will all soon be looking out for what you can get your friends and family to celebrate.

I always have problems finding cool presents for my friends – they’re very much into technology and finding them something suitable and that I can afford is always tricky!

Fortunately there are some great value deals to be had at the moment that would make great presents, and won’t break the bank!!

Microsoft have very recently announced the latest in their line of state-of-the-art BlueTrack mice, the Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000 (you can see more on the Microsoft Hardware site).

BlueTrack mice use a brand new method of tracking the movement across a surface, which is actually a combination of the laser and optical methods. If your current mouse cost you less than £10 or came with your computer, chances are its an optical mouse – usually indicated by a bright red light on the bottom just after you lift it from the desk. Instead of using this wide-band optical beam, laser mice use the higher frequency and much more accurate laser light to track the surface as it moves. BlueTrack combines the best of these to make a mouse that can work on pretty much any surface. In fact the representative from Microsoft Hardware I had a chat with said the only thing it won’t do is glass that has just been cleaned (very transparent so difficult to get reflections of).
