Mouse for <$30

Wico Corp has introduced their version of this popular rodent.  The
cheapo version has no brains at all, just a bunch of switches and
a two pair of quadrature signals.  If you have two interrrupts available
this is all you need, or if you can spare a processor to ride herd on it.
Unfortunately it's only 24-pulse-per-inch (that's 10 p/cm for you limeys)
but they will do a higher resolution version (probably at same price)
if enough people squawk.
