CD-shaped mouse is optimal for our physical media-free future

Unless you have got a penchant for going the ultralight route, chances are high you’ve a DVD or other optical drive on your laptop which you rarely, if ever, actually stick a disk in it. This idea, dubbed disk+Mouse plans to lay that space to good use holding a pointer that stores flat, but pops up in a conical shape when needed. Needless to say, by this time next year we’ll all probably be taking a look at physical media a similar way we did floppies within the post iMac world and this would be nothing but a cutesy throwback without place to move — almost like those cassette-shaped USB drives.
