It's almost certainly a PCB, firmware, and case for a ThinkPad style pointing module. The ergonomics come from the freedom to put it down where you like or integrate it into an ergo-split keyboard. Ploopy is very good about open-sourcing the CAD, firmware, and BOM for their stuff.
Yeah, most of their stuff has a 3D printed element. This is some cheeky marketing for a small company that, to my knowledge, has always done right by the maker community. I don't think this particular one has a public repository yet, but pretty much everything else does.
And why do you need a nipple pointer on a mouse? This is like a mouse within a mouse? They should add a track ball and a stylus.
Actually now that I think about it, having the option to choose which tool might appeal to some people. Like artists? CAD designers? But probably not for me.
For anyone else wondering: It's some sort of ergonomic mouse thing
It looks incredibly uncomfortable, how is that ergonomic?

The... are those buttons? have visible layer lines, that's a 3d print in the picture. I'd bet there's a repo already with the step files.

Not yet. This product was announced mere hours ago.
Uploading doesn't mean making public. I'd prepare it in advance.
"Ergonomic" is a stretch

So you can double clit
With a name that horrible, each click had better sound like “plap” so you can plap, plap, plap your day away while flicking the bean.
Hang on Ploopy, Ploopy hang on!
