Logitech's MX Air Mouse

Logitech unveiled its MX Air Mouse this morning, a laser mouse that works on the desk and in the air.

The Air MX uses Freespace motion control technology, which interprets how you move the mouse regardless of where you point it ensuring accurate and responsive navigation at a range of up to 30 feet.

The mouse also sports gesture-based commands. Logitech gives the example of changing the volume by holding the volume button while making a circular motion to the right or left to increase or decrease volume. There's also a few orange back lighted media control buttons on the new mouse which will come handy to Windows Media Center users.

Priced at $150 the MX Air Mouse is definitely not aimed at the mass market, nevertheless it makes a cool addition for home theater PC owners. Logitech’s new mouse is set to hit retail shelves in August.
