New ‘pop-up’ mouse has been launched by Microsoft which folds flat and can be carried around without any hassle. The Arc Touch comes with touch scroll strip and allows users to run their finger down to scroll through documents and there is no need to click a button in this mouse. Tapping acts like a mouse click in this device. Haptic technology has been used in the device which provides a sense of physical feedback.

Apple recently launched a buttonless multi touch magic trackpad that can be used instead of mouse. Microsoft observed the device thoroughly and came up with Arc mouse finally. General manager of Microsoft’s hardware section, Brett Ostrum said, this is not the first time when the mouse has been threatened. Arc Touch Mouse just tells us how committed Microsoft is and it continues to bring great new mice to consumers.

According to Microsoft, Arc Touch mouse uses two AAA batteries which can last for more than 6 months. And people can get this device approximately at 69.99 pounds and it will be available in markets from November.
