PS3/360 USB Mouse support?
I was browsing around today, and couldn't find any info on this. Have either Sony or MS announced whether or not we will be able to connect USB mice to the next generation of consoles?
The mouse is without a doubt capable of better accuracy. I don't care about hooking up a keyboard too. Lately I've been playing Counter-Strike on the PC with a PS2 analogue controller in one hand, and a mouse in the other, and I must say, it's better than using the keyboard or a right analogue stick. In Microsofts case, they've got the intellimouse explorer 4.0, with 4 buttons, and a 4 way mouse wheel. That's what I'm using now, and would be genius to market for the 360. This compatibility would depend on the game I bet. UT and Quake 3 for PS2 supported mouse/keyboard usb, and there was an adapter for the Dreamcast, and that was good... here's hopin'...

The front port of the PS3 has a few USB 2.0 ports, so mouse support may be possible.
Also, since the PS3 has BlueTooth capability, if there are BT mice (do they exist?) they may be able to communicate.
