The "V-Mouse" is an optical mouse, but it can also be used in the same way as a pen tablet. But unlike a pen tablet, there is no tablet.

Tec Corporation released the "V-Mouse," which is a pen-shaped mouse.

The size is 29 x 35 x 130 (W x D x H) and it weighs 40g. o­n the index finger position near the end of the pen, there are two buttons, and even a scroller equivalent to a wheel. Using a blue light optical LED, the reading resolution is at a rather high 1000dpi, meaning that it can be used in a space as small as 5cm x 5cm. A stand is not included, but it can be stuck o­n the included mouse pad, o­n the included metal plate, since the end of the pen has a magnet.

The interface is USB. For some reason, there is a hooked edge to the power connecter that attaches to the top of the pen, so users would likely want to beware that it doesn't get caught while they are using it. The price at TSUKUMO eX is 3,979 yen, and DOSPARA Akihabara 2nd Store Prime is 3,980 yen.
