Not that it was that big of a mystery before, when the online community quickly found out that Microsoft’s upcoming “new thing” was a new Arc Touch mouse, but all the intrigue goes out the window now. Thanks to an early listing of the Arc Touch mouse on a German online store, we get a full view of what it’s all about before Microsoft’s official launch.
The major new thing is clearly written in front of the box, “Curve for comfort, flatten to pack,” while the rest of the photos show pretty much all you need to see. Mainly, the rear end being able to curve or lay flat for easy packing.
While the rest of the features are still up in the air—no one knows if the business end comes with a Magic Mouse-like multi touch surface or not—Engadget mentions a touch scroll, Microsoft’s Blue Track sensor that allows it to track on almost any surface, a battery indicator, and a 2.4GHz wireless connection.
The German store lists an October 13th ship date. It’s still expected to retail for around US$70 when it gets officially launched.
