Being set inside a computer, it should come as little surprise that manufacturer's are going to start producing peripherals that tie in with Disney's upcoming Tron sequel. Gaming-hardware maker Razer is the latest to get in on the action with the a new mouse to go along with the film.
The pointer will let you live out your light-cycle fantasies across your mouse pad by drawing inspiration straight from the aesthetic of the films. Its body is a little more angular than Razer's normal mice giving it a more stylised look, and the edges are highlighted with panels that glow in a familiar shade of blue.
This would otherwise be a pretty ordinary tie-in, but Razer has gone the whole hog and included sound-effects pulled from the film that play at start-up and shutdown. And if that's not worth the price of admission, we're not sure what is.
Otherwise, the mouse is a fairly standard Razer accessory, featuring an ambidextrous design, 5,600dpi laser tracking, 1,000Hz polling, a 1ms response time and seven buttons. As with most of the company's mice, it's also wired.
Razer's Tron Gaming Mouse is available from the company's web site now for €99, or around £84. For a mouse without weight adjustment or on-board memory, this seems a little excessive, but for die-hard fans of the film series, it'll probably be a small price to pay. It's also the only pointer that will look right at home on top of the company's Tron mouse-mat that leaves a trail of light as you move over it. The two will be available soon in a bundle for €129, or around £110.
