Sandio's 3DGame O' is a computer mouse that goes beyond the ''point and click'' function of a traditional mouse as it comes with advanced 3D functions that will make gamers tremble with joy. Because the typical computer mouse is normally working in a 2D environment and because in most modern day games users are interacting with a 3D world, it is sometimes hard to implement all the subtle nuances to come from the natural movement. Using the advanced functions of the Sandio's 3DGame O' mouse users can now move forward,
backward, sideways, yaw, pitch, jump and crouch without using the keyboard.

Sandio designed and manufactured this unusual computer mouse with what the company calls ''state of the art functions'' like 16-bit based data packets, multiple and selectable sensitivity levels, on the fly DPI adjustments and voice reporting for important notifications and events.

Some of the functions implemented in this mouse are more than welcomed in today's gaming world, especially the high sensitivity level which allows users to select from 400, 800, 1600, 2000 dots per inch while needing only to touch a single button in order to use a new DPI setting.

The new computer mouse from Sandio is x86 compatible and it connects to the host computer system via an USB port and it is certified to work with Windows XP and Vista operating systems. As the mouse relies on a specialized set of drivers to deliver advanced functionality, it may not provide the same level of comfort when used on other operating systems. As it comes with 16 programmable buttons users may easily select a host of functions and shortcuts eliminating or drastically reducing the use of the keyboard.

As the Sandio's 3DGame O' was specifically designed for gamers it provides a number of important advantages when it is used in RTS, RPG (MMORPG's) and FPS games as there its added functions and increased sensitivity will make a huge difference, allowing users a more natural way to control their gaming experience.

This new and innovative computer mouse is now available worldwide from the manufacturing company's online store and it comes at a price tag of $79.99.
