New USB Keyboard And Optical Mouse Designed For Playstation 2

Logitech today announced that its USB Keyboard and Optical Mouse designed for the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system are scheduled to arrive on retail shelves in the U.S. and at www.logitech.com later this month. The USB Keyboard has a suggested retail price of $29.95 USD and the Optical Mouse has a suggested retail price of $19.95 USD. Both products are on display at the Logitech booth (#1008) at the Game Developers Conference.

Logitech has created a quality USB Keyboard for PlayStation 2, with a familiar keyboard layout and comfortable, quiet keys. The keyboard, especially ideal for gamers who chat online, features a compact design that sits easily on the lap or tabletop.

The Logitech Optical Mouse features optical tracking technology to provide exceptional precision and speed on almost any surface. This optical tracking technology has no moving parts and requires no cleaning. The mouse can be used with either hand, while three buttons and a scroll wheel give expanded control options within a number of games. Both the keyboard and the mouse include an 8-foot cable, enabling players to use each device from a comfortable distance.

Developers continue to build support for the keyboard and mouse into many games. Currently, both products are supported by: Unreal Tournament from Infogrames, Red Faction II from THQ, Half-Life from Sierra and Majesco's Soldier of Fortune and Star Trek: Elite Force. In addition, Rune Viking Warlord from Take2 includes keyboard support.
