Logitech Couch Mouse M515

New mobile mouse from Logitech that is specifically designed for use on your couch, bed or carpet. The easy gliding bottom surface was designed to make it much easier to control your mouse movements when the mouse is being used in a non-desk environment, a situation that I find myself most of the time when using a laptop. It has a new hand detection system so that your mouse is only active when you are gripping it. So, when you shift on the couch or in bed and your mouse moves, the cursor doesn’t until you grab it again. This also helps with battery life as well.

Your couch is a place for relaxing. And sometimes, you just want to stretch out a little—especially when you’re surfing the Web on your laptop with your Logitech® Couch Mouse M515. That’s why we’ve designed this mouse so it’s only active when you want it to be—and not when you don’t.

The Couch Mouse M515 is special. Unlike most computer mice, the M515 only moves the cursor or scrolls a Web page when you grip it. (And your mouse automatically turns off—and conserves battery power—when it’s not on.) So while another mouse might turn every little slip, slide and bump into a runaway cursor or accidental click, tricky soft surfaces can’t push you and your cursor around with the Logitech Couch Mouse M515 with hand detection.

Battery life is important as well and with the use of it’s 2.4GHz wireless connection and the low profile USB connector you should expect up to two years of battery life. You don’t have to worry constantly whether you have enough charge or if you are going to run out of juice while on the road. Here are some of the features Logitech is touting as well:

what's funny, I'm actually using my $5 Logitech wheel mouse on fabric right now. Been injuring my lower palm on hard surface. Going to give this Logitech LX7 a try
