Microsoft’s new Mobile Memory Mouse 8000 for notebook computers comes with a number of fresh ideas.

For starters, it combines a memory flash drive with the wireless receiver for the wireless mouse. The mouse stores a gigabyte of flash memory on a dongle that plugs into a universal serial bus (USB) port. Since many laptops have too few USB ports, the mouse-memory combo frees up one of the valuable ports for other devices. The 2.4-ghz wireless receiver has a 30-foot range. The mouse can also connect wirelessly to the laptop using a Bluetooth radio.
