The invention of the periphial mouse for macs then PCs was one of the greatest inventions of the 20th century. However, it's time to improve it for the 21st:
Remote controls for computers!
I mean, sure we have wireless mice now, but you still need a hard surface for them. And there are the spectacular optical mouse which uses that cool little red light instead of a ball. I hate having to clean my balls. But.....you still need a surface for them.
So why not attach a remote sensor to a USB port on the front of a PC and use a remote to control/navigate. It could have a joystick like a video game controller and shortcut keys to launch applications. It could be a perfect internet browser tool. I mean, a majority of people that don't work at an office don't spend much time typing stuff anyway, so it would be perfect for them.
Oh well, I'll just eat my Pit-Pat-O's with the bowl in one hand and lean over to use my mouse with the other, for now at least.
Oh, let's get naked! (√)
