Microsoft, in a bid to appear trendy no doubt, have announced that they will be making a range of new pastel coloured Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 versions available courtesy of a special edition range thus allowing you to ass a splash of colour to your trusty one eyed rodent.
Apparently ‘taking cues from the design and colour trends found in today’s apparel, accessories and other consumer electronics’ the MS Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 special edition range offers MS’s 3000 series optical mouse in Pomegranate, Dragon Fruit, Aloe, Milk Chocolate and Crème Brulee flavours (which translates, in somewhat more rudimentary terms, to red, dark pink, green, brown and khaki).

According to Microsoft’s Sean Butterworth, ‘Buying a tech product these days is a declaration of personal style, and these special edition mice allow consumers to make the ultimate statement… The Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 has always been a fan favorite, and these color updates will keep it in the forefront for years to come.’. (Now we’re not quite sure whether having a coloured mouse can possibly be construed as being the ‘ultimate statement’ but perhaps we’re just being picky).
The special edition coloured Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 range is due to become available in May with each charmingly coloured though somewhat pompously named variant retailing for around $30.
