LCD Mouse Mod

Modder Jani 'Japala' Pönkkö added an LCD display (Nokia 6610) into a Logitech G5 laser mouse. Full instructions here.
The controller requires adding three more wires to the mouse. These are connected to a parallel port. The screen can only show about 1 frame per second, but that is fast enough for general statistics or showing photos. It’s a really clean build. A clever trick was using a piece of plastic from the blister pack to cover the screen since it was already the same shape as the mouse

I dont mean it in a bad way (excellently modified!), but i cannot think of the addition of the screen to be of any use...

u need to have ur hand off of the mouse to see the screen. the only time i have my hand off is when i'm typing or watching a movie. the use i can think of is show how much batties life is left if the mouse is a cordless which i don't think so. So it's USELESS

I like it. Nicely done. maybe a smal camera in it and you can let it function as a videofone like thing (may when placing it in a cradle or something)
