Default Mouse to iphone Connection

I am using my iphone to remote connect to my PC through logmein which works fine.

The question I have is, does anyone know if there is a way to connect a mouse directly to the iphone?

The iphone is great but sometimes I would prefer to have the use of a mouse rather than touchscreen when connected to my pc.

Is there any docking cables that I could try?

You're saying you'd like to hook a mouse to your iPhone and then use the mouse to control your PC via the iPhone's screen?

Never seen anything remotely like that.

Since there's no Mouse that I know of that has a dock connector the only possible way I could see this happening is via a Bluetooth mouse.

Even so I think no.

Why not just get a wireless mouse?

Because he's talking about when he remotes into his PC via the iPhone (not actually using the PC).
