Xenon Dual Mode Touchpad Mouse is a rarely seen angular creation, but it has its advantages since the top surface is in reality a touch pad with support for various multi-touch commands – which can be optimized by the user. The mouse has a side button that allows for switching between mouse more and pad mode, th default being the mouse mode.

The idea of regular mouse funktion and touch technology in the same product is not new and both Apple and Microsoft have announced similar products. Gigabyte seems to be the first though to offer two different modes of operation, which should have its appeal in a certain crowd of users.

Gigabyte revealed nothing about the price or the availability, other than that it will be available soon.
