The proliferation of ill-advised
combo products has
prompted us to adopt a "less is more" philosophy in most cases. And that's even
more appropriate for gadgets that seem almost too small to adequately handle
even their primary functions--such Samsung's latest mini-mouse.
Its
M30
Duplus Mouse is "a pocket-size trackballer with a wireless USB connection
system, a laser pointer, and remote controller capabilities", according to
Everything USB. As we noted more than a year ago, earlier versions already
looked
too small to be used
comfortably, even without such additional features. In the new M30, it's the
trackball that appears particularly tricky, though maybe it's just because we've
never been
fans of that form of
navigation.
As far as the multiple features are concerned, we really shouldn't be
surprised. It's been clear for some time now that Samsung's R&D labs are
completely out of control.
