It looks like the modest pc mouse has finally decided to join the “rat” race. Well, what else could it be, especially when continued “innovation” in the pc peripheral market has produced a mouse with – hold your breath – 11 buttons!

With the 11-button optical mouse, most of your frequent operations can be accomplished with a single click. Volume up/down, page forward/backward, play/pause, 4-levels of speed adjustment, launching your browser, plus the normal right/left click functions have been integrated into this unique fella. The greatest achievement of the mouse is perhaps that it manages to retain a sleek look while sporting all this added fuctionality, with buttons placed quite cleverly. However, for simpleton users like me (who cannot use one extra button even on the keyboard), the buttons only make it bottom heavy. Taking the risk of sounding conservative, I must say that I can find better use for $15.

The Internet as you know it is set to become a lot faster. The Organisation européenne pour la recherche nucléaire, more commonly known as CERN, is widely recognized as world’s largest particle physics laboratory. And while these atom smashers are better known for creating anti-matter and breaking apart the building blocks of the universe, they have also been hard at work improving the performance of Internet.

CERN’s ambitious Internet project is called, “The Grid” and uses dedicated fiber along with modern routing centers to create a new faster Internet. Just how fast? According to CERN, the new Internet will be 10,000 times faster than existing broadband connections and would permit high-definition live video communications and the transmission of holographic images.

CERN plans to start using “The Grid” on the day the world’s largest particle accelerator a.k.a. CERN’s Large Hadron Collider is activated later this year. While the new “Grid” Internet will be limited to only eleven data centers around the world, it is eventually expected to replace the existing Internet backbone.

The success of the previous models of the LG Black Label Series–LG Shine and LG Chocolate–brought about the third installment of the model line.

As of current, not much info is known about the third Black Label model. It’s only spec known is that it’ll have a 5 megapixel camera. The phone will apparently be an embodiment of LG’s ‘Style that Lasts’ concept, with the handset made of tempered glass and carbon fiber. The fateful day of the Black Series 3 revelation is on April 24th–the date of its official launch.

Looks like the Sidekick iD is no longer available through T-Mobile. If you want one, you may want to head over to eBay where they’re going for super cheap! Could this be because there may be a new Sidekick iD on the way?

Last we heard from Egoman Technology, it was taking notes from Samsung in order to craft an eerily similar PMP of its own. The MP810RSTD-43, however, actually doesn’t look half bad on paper. This widescreen player sports a 4.3-inch 480 x 272 resolution touchscreen, handles RMVB, MP3, WMA, WAV, APC, FLAC, JPG, BMP and GIF file formats and FM radio signals; you’ll also find up to 8GB of internal memory and a voice recorder. Per usual, this one touts text viewing, TV output, USB 2.0 connectivity and a built-in equalizer to treat your ears the way they deserve to be treated. Not a clue on pricing here, but if you’re keen on ordering boatloads of Chinese electronics rather than just one or two, we’re sure it would be willing to talk.
