An engineer hacked Apple’s infamous Magic Mouse to make it more user-friendly, ergonomic, and overall less annoying. Ivan Kuleshov is the said engineer, and he has also hacked the Apple Mac Mini in the past to be powered over Ethernet.

Logitech had the foresight to put a little light on their devices that lets you know when the battery is low. But I guess that would ruin the sleek form factor.

Which is not that useful for a device I don't really look at, and is covered by my hand when in use. I can continue using my trackball while it is charging, though.

It is covered by your hand because it has bad ergonomics.

Good mouses have plenty of space for lights.
