Mises.

Actually, the correct term when talking about computer mouses is mouses.

oh yeah?  well how about this for pluralization.

you have one penis.
if you have more than one then you have penises.
now, lets say that you have a group of penies over here and a group of penises over there and you want to refer to them collectively.  then you have peni.

Wikipedia thinks it's a Pointing stick, but I've always heard it called an 'eraserhead'.
