The first dual cursor mouse, DCT-DPM1

AMD and Intel already went all dual on us, and now this is the first dual (cursor) mouse on the market (to my knowledge anyway). Don't ask me anything about practicality or how it is in real life, but the basic idea is that when you press the side of your mouse, a red pointer appears and takes control... and when you release the side of the mouse, the normal cursor appears...

This is exactly what I need.

I would very much like to be able to control one mouse for the purpose of training or creating scenarios, while another is being used beyond the capture area to control programs that I may need to reference while training.

It would also be of help during Powerpoint Presentations, where one cursor remains with the projections, and another works on a separate screen to perform other actions as the user desires.

I can't wait for this to become more mainstream. It absolutely has a purpose in my book.

anybody think it would be possible to have different mouse sensitivity for each mouse? if so, it would make a killer gaming mouse, ex. run around, shoot like normal, then stop to snipe, press the button and instantly have more control over aiming.. see what im saying? most games offer less sensitivity while scoped in, so it could work either way and crank it or drop it when needed.
