Opposable tech never seems reliable.

Oh yeah, from a purely aesthetically pov, the Air.0 is nicer.
Ergonomically it’s better too it would appear.
Usability remains to be seen, but I’m sure it’s fine. I’m tempted to buy one. Would be perfect for my small travel bag.

Just looking out the aesthetics of it...let's say it's less ugly than the other. I'd still choose the Air.0 if all 3 worked exactly the same.

Why is everyone so critical of this. This alone can replace BOTH your janky portable mouse and the tiny trackpad. Imagine detaching it from your laptop and put it back when done using. come on guys

These ones are much nicer. I always hated the original ones because they are indeed ugly. And the glossy buttons start to feel weird.

>The Air.0 is different – it's a full-size, origami-inspired Bluetooth mouse that folds flat for stowage.
Stowage! Stowage is what bwings your bewongings togetha, today!
(I know it's technically correct verbage, but I can't not read it this way).

My guy... I used to have that mouse years ago after a roommate gave it to me and I ADORED it until it got lost and just disappeared. I never bothered finding out what brand it was when I had it and always regretted it. Now I know what mouse it was thanks to you.

The only benefit I can see is having everything fit smoothly in a laptop case

I completely agree with you. I work primarily on a tablet, and it’s freaking perfect for my purpose.

Back when laptops had PCMCIA expansion slots, I had a mouse that folded flat and slotted into one to recharge. It was a great travel mouse, but was never better than a standard mouse because the optics weren't held parallel to the surface very well. The MS Arc did that better, but I don't see this origami mouse being able to do what the Arc did.

It’s cool and all but I ain’t pledging a minimum $50 just to get a discount.
It’s literally “if you pledge $50 you’ll get $20 off”

I'd need to hold it and play with it a bit before I'd buy, but if they can manage to have the folded version feel sturdy and have the thing be mostly foolproof then I'd want it.

That looks like an absolutely horrible experience to use.

Wow, that was uglier than I thought.

This will end up as a trade show swag giveaway in seconds flat…just like those shitty gummy keyboards.

My money don’t jiggle jiggle, it folds…. I bet this costs a lot more than a regular mouse.

Would be perfect for my kids computer case. His school issued one has space for the laptop and charger, a flat mouse would slip in perfectly.

This is sick. I hate packing a mouse in my computer bag when I’m traveling.

Yeah this is not a good product. It sacrifices the usability of a mouse (you know, the whole point) for a really tiny benefit of slightly less space taken up. Also, not sure why this is much better than your standard travel mouse.

Yeah someone should really make a laptop case with a pouch to put a regular mouse in…. /s
