But . . . you haven't said what all these lasers and gyroscopes are for! What do they do? Why should I pay a hundred quid for a mouse? That's almost an Apple pricing strategy! Does it do my laundry or something?!

Sorry about the late replies, hadn't checked this article in a while.

@Gutto:

It was available at the time of review, and still is, from several retailers and from Gyration's website.

@Mark Vickers:

I believe I spent quite a bit of time talking about what everything is for in fact - you might want to read the review again.

Page 2 talks about 'normal desktop mouse' usage, which employs the laser sensor, while page 3 evaluates the motion control, which is what the gyroscopes are for.

And where did you get the £100? At the time of review it was £63, and it's now even cheaper. You pay more than for an ordinary mouse because of the motion-sensing, hence 'Air' Mouse.

Flawed in some ways, but brilliant in others, the Gyration Air Mouse with MotionSense is probably the best all-in-one tool for presentations, remotely controlling media and some unique Wii-like gaming on the PC. Now if only the company would bring out a version emphasising ergonomics over portability…
