Short version: A perfectly usable air mouse with the usual drawbacks, but simple and user-friendly configuration. A handy accessory for HTPCs and for those who just like to lean back. Features: Now works on OS X Wireless, no-line-of-sight operation 8 buttons (3 programmable) Built-in regular optical mouse MSRP: $80 Pros: Very responsive and reasonably accurateRead more
A mouse is more comfortable than a laptop trackpad but does depend on a flat surface. The Gyration Air Mouse avoids this with a clever combination of sensors so it can be used in mid-air. It is very small and comes with a pouch. It may not take up too much space in a laptop bag but it is not that comfortable for larger hands. It won't replace a full-size mouse. There is trigger button on the underside to engage the in-air mode. It takes a little getting used to but works better in practice.Read more

Review : Gyration Air Mouse Elite

How ever big the area surrounding the keyboard there are always times when it is just not large enough. I often find the 30x20cm area set aside for my <b>mouse</b> to move around in taken by notes, cups or even a plate.

The Air Mouse Elite works both in standard desktop fashion and in mid-air, letting you navigate your computer wirelessly from up to 30m away. Performing admirably in both capacities, it will please people who make plenty of presentations, as well as those who want to navigate media on their PC from the couch
