Remember the Sony Skype device I wrote about? Let me refresh your memory with 2 pictures...


Sony VAIO VNCX1-B Mouse
Now word comes about a new combo Skype device called the Skype USB Phone ASG-142 SkyGenie MouseFone.It features an 800 DPI optical sensor, Skype speakerphone, an a 1.3-inch LCD for caller ID display. Although it is USB, it only works on Windows. Unlike the Sony VAIO Skype mouse combo gadget, the MouseFone does have a number keypad and a funky glowing green scroll wheel. Not sure how you are supposed to talk on Skype and use your mouse even if it does have a speakerphone. Some of these combo devices just seem silly to me. Who buys these things?
