What do you call a Mouse Mat Collector

We've all got them, some of us have a lot, possibly even hundreds of that item that didn't exist 20 years ago, and now is compulsory for almost every business and home - the humble mousemat. I am sure that some people will start collecting them, and also some of them will become valuble, but what would a mouse mat collector be called? My suggestion would be a Rodentologist - anyone got a better idea? perhaps a mousematist?

Would call such a collector an avid computer...lol
We do seem to get them and then new ones and then free ones and then...you get the picture.
Mine has a calendar for 2006 on it and I guess I should get another out. Now just where did I put them? ? ?

Well, I'm still using a mousemat with 2001 calendar on it, got loads from 'MyOffers' which used to send you a free mousemat if you entered several free draws on the site. I get confused as to what the day of the week is, but then I always did. Wonder if I can sell it on E-bay for a fortune? Do you think there's anyone stupid enough out there. Or even on here -
Anyone want a Collecter's Edition MouseMat 2001 Vintage - only 3 left in Captivity $10 each.

I don't use a mouse mat because my mouse is one of those optic ones. But I have several lying around the place and I've also thrown several of them out. Maybe collectors will be called Padologists. Or maybe mouse mats will be able to talk by then and disagree with being called mouse mats.

I haven't seen a talking mouse mat yet!!, but I have heard of some that have been fitted with radios, and lots of other accessories as well, do almost anything but let your mouse near it. I've got an optical mouse as well, but still use a mouse mat with it.
