News: Logitech ships 100 millionth wireless mouse

PC peripheral maker Logitech announced yesterday that it has shipped its 100 millionth wireless mouse.

The company introduced the world’s first radio-frequency (RF) based mouse for computers in 1991 with a steep pricetag of $150 (around R1 085). It compares badly to some of the company’s latest offerings priced below R280.

These devices have also been improved over the years with wireless innovations such as the tiny nano-receiver as well as Logitech Unifying technology that delivers faster and more reliable 2.4 GHz connectivity. Users can add up to six Unifying devices to one receiver in order to keep from having to utilise all available USB ports.

“Logitech mice have played an integral role in improving the computing experience for millions of people, and our wireless mice build on that heritage,” said Rory Dooley, Logitech senior vice president and general manager of the Control Devices business unit.

“Today, our wireless mice deliver a robust feature set combined with unparalleled ease of use and precision. And the new mice we offer in a variety of colors and patterns provide consumers with an element of self expression while they use their laptop and mouse to seamlessly navigate their favorite content.”

Logitech also recently unveiled its Fantasy Collection range, which is a series of peripherals sporting a greater selection of colours and unconventional patterns, inspired by trends in fashion as well as pop culture.
