Sometimes you encounter gadgets that are "SEXY". What does that mean .. hmmm. Let's see, the Apple PowerBook G4 Titanium's are "SEXY". DELL laptops aren't. Apple iPods are "SEXY". Creative's Nomad's aren't. Windows NOT, OS X IS. (No debates in the comments section please;) ) Sony's mouse is "SEXY", but Microsoft's isn't.
To me it's a combination of style, color, and feel. When u see it .. u must have it. MUST! Well, that was me today going through Laox at Kichijoji. Laox is kind of like CompUSA + Shirokiya(electronics section) at Ala Moana + Sears (fridge/AC/washer dryer areas), but packed into 4 tiny floors. Easily spent 2 hours in there.
Got's me a shiny new Sony mouse!
 The mouse exterior without any cuts into the plastic for left and right buttons was the first thing that got me. Similar to Mac's clear single button mouse, except there are left/right buttons under the shell and the wheel protudes out .. oh so elegantly. And the shape .. must be shaped after a, AHEM. Excuse me. Let me just say it has nice curves. heh!
Onto colour, Metallic red coating was my poison .. do u take the red pill, or the black one, or the silver one .. too many choices! Did I mention the nice black curves?
The clicks are lighter than Micro$ofts mice and sound crisper(yeah, yeah, get a better word). Actually the feel of Bill's mice are pretty nice .. solid is a good word. The thinner and flexible cable on the Sony's adds to a lighter feel.
Sony's Sexy mouse! ** DEBATE: scratch off the logo or not? **
