    "The PCMCIA slot mounted in most laptops is seldom used by laptop users.

    I believe that a compact laptop user would certainly dislike bringing an enormous mouse with him/her, but what if the Touchpad or Trackpoint is not user-friendly?

    Now we got a compact wireless mouse which can be stored and charged in the PCMCIA slot."

    Interesting idea, but too small to be more useful than a good trackpad.

    I agree. Plus the fact that it is not compatible with Linux is a big turn off for yours truly.

    It's been out for quite a while, but lack of reviews and users have really scared away the customer base. The ergonomics is a big question for the MoGo, but PCMCIA slot devices are always neat(I have a StashCard myself :p).
