moldablemouse.jpgHere's a good idea with questionable real-world applications: The Moldable Mouse. The ultimate response to the complaints of carpal tunnel syndrome issued against nearly every mouse that's ever been released, LiteOn's Red Dot Award-winning concept design conforms to your hand--or to just about any other shape you can imagine.

The mouse is made of lightweight modeling clay housed inside a nylon-and-polyurethane-fabric blend. The three buttons (two click and one scroll) contain RFID and can be repositioned anywhere on the mouse.

How well the mouse retains its shape when you're not in the mood for remolding has yet to be determined. But heck, that's what concept designs are for, right?

I was wondering if I could find out about the inside working of the mouse and what it looks like. I think this is an awesome idea. Thanks. Jo Ann

Hi, Joann. As far as we know, the most information out there right now is on the Red Dot site: http://www.red-dot.sg/concept/porfolio/06/13pw/R094MM.htm. Isn't it a cool concept? I hope it does get made some day.
