Canon is now presenting you a very amazing gadget, in the name of X Mark I, which packs the capabilities of a laser mouse as well as a calculator. The build is not so comfortable to hold because the device is very large (with respect to our daily mouse) and has sharp edges. However, it can be easily said that the device was not made keeping ergonomics in mind. It is really cheap, only $63 inclusive of all taxes and that’s more than reasonable considering the dual functioning of Canon’s X Mark I. Have a look at the picture and you’ll understand what I mean.

It’s doesn’t look too bad either, does it? It is available in white colour as well. For other details, look at the specifications listed below:
- 10-digit Calculator
- Wireless 3 button laser mouse (1200 dpi) or numeric keypad
- Integrated Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity
- Partly made from Canon copier recycled material (that solves the mystery of low-price)
- Low Battery indicator and Auto-power off
- Compatible with Windows and Macintosh
So, it cannot be said that it’s a perfect replacement for your calculator and a mouse, but it is really a very nice choice to include if you tend to use calculator a lot. Having a dual functioning mouse and calculator would be very great.
Also, looking at the specifications, the mouse capabilities might not match with your current mouse and with the inclusion of Bluetooth 2.1 (3.0 in near future) in current devices, this device might look a bit from old age. So, it would be totally your call when you buy it. Please leave your views and suggestions in the comment area below.
