The LogiNoki, A Mouse With An LCD Screen

If you don’t see the sheer brilliance of adding an LCD screen to a mouse, perhaps you should be elsewhere, reading about cute puppies instead. See, gamer/hacker extraordinaire Jani ?Japala? P?nkk? has managed to fit the screen of a Nokia 6610 into the back of a Logitech G5 laser mouse, and called it The LogiNoki. It requires the addition of three wires and is only capable of displaying 1 frame per second, but that’s enough for pictures and general stats. The additional wires are connected to a parallel port which feeds the info you choose to display.

For a blow by blow of how he did it, follow the linkola.
