Asus reveals VivoMouse, mouse-touchpad combo for Windows 8

The new Asus PC peripheral’s name makes it sound inconspicuously like a normal wireless mouse but one look at it and you know it’s far from the usual mouse. The VivoMouse has a desktop circular touchpad on it with multi-touch support. Asus claims this is the first in the world to combine the concept on a mouse.

It supports both Windows 7 and 8 with swipe gestures to control the Charms and other multitasking capabilities of Win 8. You can pinch-to-zoom and scroll with two fingers as well with this device. The touchpad also works as buttons of a traditional mouse.
