Where can I buy a new mouse pad?
Shop for mice and mice pads or a wireless mouse, optical mouse, wireless mobile mouse, mouse trackball, air mouse or a scroll wheel mouse at any office supplies store.
What is the best way to clean a wireless mouse?
Use compressed air and blow it out.
What is the difference between wireless and laser mouse?
A wireless mouse sends signals to the computer through the air rather then having a cord connect the two. Laser mouses have a small laser at the bottom of it. It uses motion sensing to tell how much the mouse moves without having to use a mouse ball. Wireless and laser are independent so a mouse can neither, both, or just one of them.
Is laser mouse optical mouse?
There are quite some differences between an optical mouse and a laser mouse. One of the most noticeable differences is the type of rays coming out of the mouse. Now,we all know that from an optical mouse there is (usually) a red light coming out and on the other hand, the laser mouse does not produce such light. It produces an invisible laser beam which is harmless to humans. Also,they say,that laser mouses are much more precise than the previous generation mouses, 'thus making them much more valuable. And finally, you can use laser mouses on almost all surfaces (except glass, mirrors and air) which is quite useful in many situations. Of course,there are many people questioning which is better - the laser mouse or the optical mouse,but one thing is for certain - they may look the same,but they are definitely not the same thing.
How is data transported in a wireless network?
It's transported with wireless protocols (802.11 standards) through the air on different frequencies. Most common frequency used for wireless data is 2.4 GHz. Many newer wireless technologies are moving to different frequencies due to congestion on 2.4
What is the main purpose of an air card?
The main purpose for using an air card would be to obtain wireless access on the go. An air card can be used with many different wireless devices.
What is the mouse called that is motion sensing?
air-mouse
Which stores carry the Air Mouse as part of their inventory?
Many stores carry the Air Mouse as part of their inventory. Some examples of stores that carry Air Mouse are the following: Best Buy, Brookstone, Staples, and Sears.
Why does the light bend as it passes from air to glass or from glass to air?
This is due to the difference in optical density.
When did Mickey Mouse first go on air?
Mickey Mouse first went on air on Plane Crazy (May 15, 1928)
What is the slogan for Verizon wireless?
"Rule the air"
How can you tell when your computer mouse needs to be cleaned?
The short answer is when it is dirty. This can apply to both mechanical and optical mice. If looking at the bottom of the mouse you can see dust in the hole or on the ball, it won't hurt to clean it out. The long answer is that when your mouse cursor jumps around on the screen or refuses to move at all, you should check the mouse. Only mechanical mice are likely to ever need a cleaning, unless your computer's environment is exceptionally dusty or dirty. A mechanical mouse can generally be identified by the ball that can be seen partially protruding from it's bottom. This ball, which is generally made from a synthetic rubber, can get sticky with age. That stickiness will then pick up grit, dust or lint in normal usage, and then in turn stick what has been picked up onto the rods or rollers inside the mouse, eventually causing the mouse to function as described. If you have an optical mouse, the hole in the bottom of the mouse will be unobstructed, and generally have a very small, visible laser light shining through it. You can clean most optical mice by blowing a little dry air to dislodge any accumulated dust or dirt. (Hot breath not such a good idea nor are fingers, canned air is a better choice, and a clean cotton swab if required.) IBM support recommended replacing a ball that had become sticky all the way back in the '80s; now a more practical solution is to replace your mechanical mouse with a new optical mouse. You can find them on-line for less than $5 with shipping these days.
