IRIScan Mouse - All-in-one mouse and scanner

If you're like me, you might not be able to remember the last time you used a fax machine.  I do still need to scan a document every now and then though, so the I.R.I.S. IRIScan Mouse looks like it might be an interesting alternative to a stand alone scanner. First of all, it functions like an traditional USB mouse, but when you need to make a scan, you just press a button and swipe the mouse back and forth across the document.
The IRIScan Mouse will scan in 400 DPI and the text and images will appear on the computer screen in real time.
