Absolutely fucking not

They already can’t make a fucking mouse that won’t suffer from double clicks within a few years. They have a model, albeit a shitty one, that has people repeatedly buying their products. I will never buy another Logitech product if they even make a “luxury” mouse for the wealthy that has subs, even if they keep a free option. It’s not for me, but the existence of such product is a deal breaker in itself.

Can you tell us which mouse you use? I miss my Mx Marble.

They do have great products, they just need to learn, like basically all corpos, to just shut up.

Logi CEO: “Heh, yeah, well you know, there is a rich tradition of tech companies pranking the public with silly, unexpected practical jokes on April 1.”

“But sir, it’s August.”

“Oh, well I guess that’s what makes it so unexpected, heh. Yeah. Unless you want a mouse subscription? No? Oh, just forget that I asked - that was, ah, part of the joke. Apr- August Fools!”

Anymore

I mean everyone knows that the answer to whether they’d live to do this is “yes”, but you don’t have to guess. They pretty much say ‘yes we’re planning it’ in PR doublespeak:

Logitech’s stance is “the mouse mentioned is not an actual or planned product but a peek into provocative internal thinking on future possibilities for more sustainable consumer electronics.”

So… They’re not planning to make it but they’re investigating the market possibility of selling it? Golly PRtalk is rough.

Luckily the CEO comes in hot again for us. Besides comparing the Morse to a Rolex he has this to say:

I’m going to ask this very directly. Can you envision a subscription mouse?

Possibly.

And that would be the forever mouse?

Yeah.

So you pay a subscription for software updates to your mouse.

Yeah, and you never have to worry about it again, which is not unlike our video conferencing services today.

But it’s a mouse.

But it’s a mouse, yeah.

I think consumers might perceive those to be very different.

[Laughs] Yes, but it’s gorgeous. Think about it like a diamond-encrusted mouse.

Diamond crusted to who?

Up next: mouse cartridges.

But they’ll implement a one time fee to change your dpi, and then a few years after that it’ll be subscription.

Netflix has plans to have a subscription movie service!
