Jelfin, one emerging name in the smart design and inventive computer accessories with distinctive design aesthetics, just announced the debut of its so-called revolutionary computer mouse. This truly is somewhat innovative, or at least different, as in taking just the shape, I could easily confuse it with a webcam, when actually it is just a cleverly designed, ball-shaped mouse that is encased in a soft, luxe gel covering that spreads on the entire surface area, setting quite a new standard for comfort (or at least that's what the manufacturer says).

"The Jelfin Mouse will appeal to those who possess a sharp eye for style, a demand for the finest materials, a desire for individuality and those who won't compromise on quality and affordability," said Nick Pajic, Jelfin president and CEO. "What cashmere has done for the sweater, we think the soft, gel cover has done for the mouse. We believe customers are going to love the look and feel - and be very pleased with its performance!"

First thing users will notice is that they can cup their fingers in a more natural way, namely around the ball, rather than extending them outward, for an overall more ergonomic feel. Anyone that is part of that majority of 74% of Americans that would like a more comfortable mouse will enjoy this mouse for sure, thanks to the soft and squishy cover that appeals both visually and by touch. Speaking of the cover, this will also be available as a separate purchase from the manufacturer, to offer a new look for the ones that get bored quickly, as well as a squeaky clean cover for the germ-conscious.

"With as much time as we spend on the computer, we all deserve a better - and more comfortable - experience," added Pajic. "Jelfin is dedicated to bringing the world the most comfortable mouse possible... and infusing it with a touch of tactile fun. Why should your hands settle for anything less?"

Technical specifications are limited to the resolution, namely 1,000 dpi, for a smooth and precise scrolling experience. Available in cobalt blue, crimson red, cadmium yellow, electric green and hot pink, the Jelfin ball-shaped gel-covered mouse comes with an included travel case, the Jelfin travel can, and is ready for purchase online for $33.95.
