Call me a girl, but I like pink. I’ve never had a pink mouse though, although I’ve seen plenty for sale. But now there’s one available that’s tempting me to purchase, not just for its color but because I know it’s for a good cause.
This upcoming special edition of the Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 (http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=013) has been made in partnership with Susan G. Komen for the Cure, which you probably know is the world’s largest breast cancer charitable organization.
Microsoft will be donating 10% of the selling price ($4.00 USD) with a minimum donation of $200,000 to Susan G. Komen for the Cure when the mouse goes on sale mid-September (retail price: $39.95 USD). The money will be used for research grants and community outreach projects, reports the Microsoft Hardware blog (http://microsofthardwareblog.com/teaming-up-with-susan-g-komen-for-the-cure/).
The mouse offers pretty great hardware specs, too, including BlueTrack technology, a tiny nano transceiver and customizable buttons. Windows 7 integration is supported as well. For more details, check out the full feature list here (http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/mouseandkeyboard/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=013) on Microsoft.com while you wait for the pink one to arrive in stores and online.
