The Arrival of the Warmouse

A mouse is a fairly simple technological animal. It's got a left and right button, allows you to point at specific parts of your screen and click to achieve certain desired effects. But with the advent of the Warmouse, you're going to have more than just two buttons - in fact, try about eighteen.

The Warmouse was designed by an avid game designer fed up with the limited options of the two button mouse, which is best served with first person shooting (FPS) games rather than massively multiplayer online role playing (MMORPG) games or real time strategy games (RTS). Possibly named in part for the popular World of Warcraft series, the Warmouse seeks to address not only gamers' need, but also many other non-gaming applications that would benefit from it.

With the Warmouse, you can assign any application function to any of the mouse buttons and execute them in either clicks or double-clicks, using the Meta Modware. The joystick function allows you to transform 20 commands of a keyboard to one swipe of the mouse, offering better functionality without the need to even take your hand off the mouse.

Here's a list of games and applications now compatible with the Warmouse.
