Corsair Announces HS1 USB Gaming Headset
Corsair is getting set to expand its offerings by announcing the HS1 USB gaming headset today. This marks Corsair's inaugral audio offering and will fall under its Gaming Audio Series. The HS1 features 50mm drivers and an acoustically tuned sound stage which Corsair claims is great for gaming, music, and movies. The headset is a circumaural and closed-back design so it should help to block out any outside noise during an intense gaming session or big LAN parties. The ear pads use memory foam so they should cushion your head without binding or pinching your ears. The microphone is of the uni-directional, noise-canceling variety and it is on an adjustable boom. Since the headset connects via USB, Corsair employs Dolby Headphone technology to provide immersive multi-channel sound up to 7.1. The whole headset is covered by a two year warranty.
The Corsair HS1 headset should be available now though no price was given.

Microsoft Arc Touch Mouse Finally Official
Microsoft first teased a new device a little while back and from then on it had been shown in unofficial leaks. Now Microsoft has finally made it official and has named it the Arc Touch Mouse. This is a mouse just like any other but it has a few unique features to distinguish itself from the competition. First up is the shape of the mouse. It is perfectly flat when you first open up its box and in order to use it, you bend the rear portion to form an arc. The rear features a soft rubber grip so it should be quite comfortable to hold. The front portion of the mouse features two buttons for left and right click along with a capacitive strip in the middle in the place of a scroll wheel. The capacitive strip has sensor buttons that can be used for scrolling, like the typical wheel, as well as customizable shortcuts giving you the option to launch whatever you want. The capacitive strip has some haptic feedback which will let you know when you are using it so it should be similar to a scroll wheel's feel.
The Arc Touch Mouse will launch this December for $69.95. It seems a bit weird to me to announce the mouse so far in advance so maybe there is something else planned to launch around that time. Whatever the case may be, stay tuned for more information.
