Corvette Mouse
I just found this wireless mouse for my computer.
It's not a C-3 but pretty cool just the same.
I ordered the red Corvette to see what they are like
They also have other cars (Ford, Chrysler, Chevy) and a police car
I thought you guys might like to see them

The Corvette mouse arrived today and I have been using it for about an hour.
Pros: Looks just like it does on the website, like the real car. Very Nice.
seems to be good quality, fit and finish is better than most GM products.
Scroll wheel works well
Headlights are cute
Looks like a nice model of a Corvette and you have to look close to tell it is a mouse. I like that
Cons: takes up a USB port and my desktop only has two so it limits what you can hook up.
Also, when it times out after not being used for a few minutes, you have to reset/resynchronize the USB transmitter which in my case is a nuisance since the desktop has a access door for the USB port and the reset button is hard to reach. This gets to be a nuisance. Not a problem if you keep moving the mouse so it doesn't go to "sleep" mode.
Also, the range for the mouse to the transmitter is .6 meter to 1.6 meter so your computer can't be to far from the desk area you are working at. That's not as big an issue as the resetting of the transmitter is for me.
Mouse is a little sensitive but that's probably just cause I am not used to it.
Overall it is a nice product and I probably need to get a liitle more used to it.
Will take it to work tomorrow and try it at the office all day.
