Erwin Lui, the CALTY designer responsible for the original Lexus Coupe, famously devised that car's form by manipulating a balloon filed with modeling clay. Lite-On Technology is using a similar technique for their Red-Dot-Award-winning Moldable Mouse, crafted from modeling clay skinned with a nylon/polyurethane blend. Completely knead-able and possessed with shape memory, the silky-feeling mouse is designed to prevent carpal tunnel by letting the user change the form at will. It may also prevent you from finishing your work, as playing with this thing seems a heck of a lot more interesting than finishing up those spreadsheets.

That is a brilliant idea.
I remember the story about the balloons. You sure it wasn't plaster?
