The news
Finally, at long last, it'll soon be safe for you to use your keyboard and mouse, secure in the knowledge that you'll be protected against invisible nasties put there by your own unsavoury habits.
Assuming, that is, you're using the latest, soon-to-be-launched (price as yet unknown) Logitech wireless keyboard-and-mouse combination, the Cordless Desktop MX 3200 Laser, which is treated with AgION Technologies' AgION antimicrobial compound.
This compound is reckoned to provide continuous and long-lasting protection from microbes by releasing silver ions to the surface of the keyboard and mouse at a slow and steady rate. The result is reckoned to be a "self-cleaning" surface that combats existing microorganisms as well as any new ones that come along - and to last the life of the products.
The serious business of nasties that linger at our finger tips is explained by Stuart R Patterson, CEO of AgION Technologies, who says,
Computer
peripherals such as keyboards and mice can be breeding grounds for
microbes because they are not cleaned regularly and when they are
cleaned, their small parts and crevices make it difficult to be
thorough.
The AgION compound built into the Logitech Cordless Desktop MX 3200 Laser provides safe, long-lasting, and effective protection from the microorganisms that can linger on the surfaces of our homes and offices.

Denis Pavillard, Logitech’s vice president of product marketing for keyboards and desktops, further sets the spine shivering by saying,
The Logitech Cordless
Desktop MX 3200 Laser is
Logitech’s first product to feature AgION antimicrobial
compound,
providing protection against the growth of a broad range of bacteria,
mold and mildew.
So now you now.
Sleep well, all you unprotected ones.
