Logitech announces V470 mouse

The notebook toting fraternity definitely have far more peripherals to look forward to these days compared to a few years ago, and the Logitech V470 Cordless Laser Mouse is the latest to be announced. The V470 eschews RF in favor of Bluetooth connectivity, making it a snap to hook up to MacBook or Windows-based notebooks without the need for an external receiver. It uses Bluetooth 1.2 wireless technology and features laser tracking for a higher level of accuracy. There is a battery life of 4 months, but I personally find that the figure is probably closer to 70% if you plan on using your mouse for at least 8 hours every day. Features include Side-to-Side Scrolling and an indicator light. The Logitech V470 will retail for approximately $49.99 when it is released early next month.
