“Logitech Mouse”

Reliable optical technology combined with an innovative scroll wheel that acts as a third button sets Logitech’s 904353-0403 Trackman Wheel Optical (Logitech Mouse) apart from ordinary trackball mice. Patented optical technology provides superior precision, reduced wear, and smooth motion, and eliminates the need for regular cleaning.

The scroll wheel provides easy scrolling and the added convenience of an extra mouse button, enabling you to jump easily to your favorite Web sites. The ball is ideally positioned for thumb operation, and the comfortable shape of the mouse allows for strain-free extended use. Its smaller size also saves desk space, reduces hand and wrist movement, and plugs very easily into your system’s USB or PS/2 port. Compatible with both Windows and Macintosh systems.

“Maxtor OneTouch”

Small enough to snuggle comfortably inside a coat or even a suit pocket, the Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini (250GB) ($129.99 direct) has received a nice capacity boost (from 160 to 250GB) over last year’s Editors’ Choice model. Suitable for transporting and syncing data between multiple machines (laptop and home PC, or home and work PC), the OneTouch 4 Mini stands out from rivals like the Toshiba HDDR320E03X and the Western Digital My Passport Elite, thanks to a design that lets it be used for either data backup or disaster recovery. Although its disaster-recovery is only for Windows XP or Vista users with NTFS-formatted drives, the OneTouch 4 Mini is one of the best portable drives available, and it once again earns our Editors’ Choice.

The OneTouch 4 Mini is relatively small, measuring 0.6 by 4.9 by 3.2 inches (HWD). Its brushed-aluminum top, thick plastic sides, and rubberized bottom convey a sense of security, and the backlit OneTouch button doesn’t protrude too far from the drive. I prefer the OneTouch 4 Mini’s sturdier appearance to the aesthetics of the Western Digital Passport Elite. Packed with Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini is a Y-shaped USB cable. One of the USB ports is strictly dedicated to powering the drive, with the other for data transfer. I needed to use both while running the OneTouch 4 Mini with the Sony VAIO VGC-LT29U and our test bed.

"Logitech QuickCam"

As Internet connections have matured to faster and faster broadband pipelines, webcam manufacturers have been keeping pace with higher resolutions and improved optics to take advantage of the larger bandwidth. And more than just communicating over chat and VoIP, webcams are increasingly used to broadcast Truman Show-esque live video feeds of one’s every move (such as at Justin.tv) as well as high-quality mini-movies uploaded to sharing sites. And that’s where the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 really shines, with its 2-megapixel image sensor, smooth-tracking autofocus, high-end Carl Zeiss optics, and HD video capabilities (with the capability of recording video at 960 by 720 pixels).

The combination of Logitech’s RightLight technology and 2-megapixel Carl Zeiss optics produce improved clarity and lighting (Pro 9000 on the left, MacBook integrated camera on right–both captured in the same lighting conditions).

Add a variety of special effects from filters (above) to facial accessories (below).

First, a little about Logitech’s touted technological and optical advantages. Designed by Carl Zeiss (known for high-end film and digital camera lenses), the Pro 9000’s optics use a five-element lens arranged into four optical elements. As a result, the lens focuses the light onto the sensor with maximum detail and minimal aberrations. The 2-megapixel lens also offers an autofocus mechanism that automatically adjusts as your face moves about. It also incorporates Logitech’s RightLight and RightSound technologies, which improves the webcam’s image quality under difficult lighting conditions and provides noise cancellation, respectively.

We found the autofocus feature to be much smoother than another similarly specced webcam from Creative that we previously reviewed (which felt stuttery to our video chat partners), and the RightLight feature was able to render an image of our face in both highly backlit and low-light situations–something that other webcams we’ve tested have completely failed at. And the combination of RightLight, Carl Zeiss optics, and the two-megapixel sensor helped to enrich both the clarity and the color of our images.

While it’s true that broadband Internet has gained speed, unfortunately none of the major chat or VoIP programs are can stream the high-definition video (960 by 720 pixels) that the Pro 9000 can capture. Thus, this feature is really only usable for recording video to your hard drive and either uploading to a video sharing service like YouTube or for inclusion into a movie project to be burned to disc. The Pro 9000 also enables you to take still images at larger than its native 2-megapixel sensor via software interpolation (up to an 8-megapixel resolution). Note, however, that shooting at a higher resolution causes a lengthier shutter lag.

The Pro 9000 offers easy plug-and-play operability on either a Windows PC or a Mac–just slide in the USB 2.0 plug, select the camera from your chosen video chatting program (it works seamlessly with Skype, Yahoo!, Windows Live, SightSpeed, and iChat), and you’re good to go. While the Pro 9000 works brilliantly right out of the box, you’ll only be able to take advantage of software add-ons such using the included QuickCam software (which is for Windows users only).
