Speedlink presents three new mice; the CUE multi-touch mouse, the Ferret gaming mouse, and the Saphyr with Bluetrace technology: The accessories specialist SPEEDLINK® presents an array of highly innovative PC mice – including one of the world’s first PC mice to feature multitouch functions that make it possible to control the PC using intuitive finger gestures: SPEEDLINK® CUE Wireless Multitouch Mouse.

Browse your photo collection by sliding your finger across the surface, swipe it to scroll through texts, and navigate using simple gestures. Smartphones made finger gesture control popular, now it’s possible on the PC too – and all without a touchscreen. The new CUE Wireless Multitouch Mouse from SPEEDLINK® combines proven optical mouse technology with highly-sensitive sensors integrated into its surface that recognise gestures, using up to two fingers, and translate them into freely definable commands. As a result, the CUE doesn’t need additional mechanical buttons – and its impressive sleek and stylish design isn’t spoilt by cables either as connecting it is taken care of by robust 2.4GHz wireless technology. The CUE Wireless Multitouch Mouse will be available in four different colours from November 2010 and will cost €39.99 (MSRP).

The SPEEDLINK® FERRET Gaming Mouse is a compact high-end input device perfect for PC gamers on the move and at LAN parties. The maximum precision 3200dpi optical sensor responds with no lag to even the fastest of movements. Thanks to the dpi switch which is directly integrated in the mouse, the FERRET Gaming Mouse can be set at different sensitivity levels. The scroll wheel lights up in a variety of colours to indicate the actual dpi setting based on a colour-coding scheme which is also freely configurable. The FERRET fits nicely in the hand thanks to outstanding ergonomics, six quickly-accessible buttons and rubberised side areas. The FERRET Gaming Mouse will be available from October for €19.99 (MSRP).

Flexibility and precision are the hallmarks of the stylish SAPHYR mouse series. Their Bluetrace™ sensor technology unites the advantages of standard optical sensors and laser tracking. With advanced sensors and blue, shortwave LED light technology, Bluetrace™ delivers error-free tracking and maximum precision on practically any surface – whether wood, carpet or marble, it doesn’t matter. Three versions are available which differ in the way they connect to the computer – yet whether it comes with the retractable Flexcable™, 2.4GHz wireless technology or Bluetooth®, every SAPHYR offers maximum flexibility and freedom of movement, both on the desktop as well as on the move. Available from October 2010, the SAPHYR series will be available at prices starting from €14.99 (MSRP).
