BT Mini mouse for student

Well I bought myself a Samsung NC10, and now I am looking for a very compact Bluetooth compatible mouse to go with it. I don't mind smaller mice as my hands aren't that big, and my backpack (which I will be lugging it around in) is already rather full. Sturdiness is a plus, though generally I'm pretty careful with my devices. I'm willing to pay premium for size and battery endurance, but I really don't need gaming precision on this mouse. I'll be using it for hours of internet browsing and office suite apps. Speaking of applications, I do not need presentation buttons, back buttons, zoom sliders, etc on it; just 2 buttons and a scroll wheel. Thanks for any suggestions!

Overview of desired features:

• Compact
• Bluetooth
• Scroll wheel
• Automatic sleep when not in use
• Rechargable power cell prefered, though I can just use rechargable AAs if needed.

I've been using a VX Revolution with it, but that's a bit larger than what I'm looking for, plus not BT. Oh let me just chime in on the Samsung NC10 being a great little netbook! If you look at my name, you can probably guess what color I got

 

I have a targus bluetooth mouse for sale. Does your notebook have a built in BT module?

 

Hey there!
I think you might like these, perhaps:

or the, Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks - Blue

also the: Logitech V270 Cordless Optical Bluetooth Mouse- Charcoal

Both are small, compact and work just well! I have the Microsoft Bluetooth NB 5000, and it's a great mouse!

Hope that helps!

There goes Cin again pimping her Microsoft BT 5000! That's ok, it is a very good one.

As for as mobile mouse go, I think it is hard to beat the VX Nano. Yeah it isn't BT, but the adapter for it is very small. I've been very happy with mine the four months I have owned it.

 

I have both the v270 and the microsoft mouse cin posted. The logitech feels bigger in your hand than the microsoft one does, but the microsoft feels more comfortable.

 

Brncao: Yep, it does have built in bluetooth. I'm looking to buy a new, not used, mouse though. Not sure if the one you are offering is new! If it is, what model?

Cin: Thanks for the good suggestions, I like the look of the MS mouse as a moderate sized BT option. However, I'm looking for something extra small... a mini mouse as I mentioned in the post title. I'm a fan of both logitech and MS mice, they've always worked as advertised for me by-in-large.

atbnet: Hehe, I've seen Cin's post about her MS mouse when I was looking around before posting here. I do like MS mice and have used a number of them. As for the VX Nano, I saw that and it looks promising as I like the scroll wheel on their mice, which I've had no problems with so far. However, the "free spin mode" of the wheel does lose its zip after a month or two of heavy use I've found, and the size of the mouse itself is still a little bigger than what I had hoped for... but definitely a good contender if I can't find a suitable mini.

nizzy1115: Thanks for the personal imput! Having it feel small in my hand is not an issue, though I do have smaller hands so I can get away with it easier too... and MS usually makes pretty comfy mice.

 

It's new and never opened. Here's the link http://www.targus.com/US/product_details.asp?sku=AMB03US

 

No problem..always glad to try and be helpful
BTW the MS BT 5000 is a small mouse

Brncao: After looking around at reviews and the specs of the mouse you're offering, I'm afraid I'm going to go ahead and pass even though you are offering a good deal.

Cin: Once again good suggestions, they got me digging deeper and I think I might have found a mouse I'd like to try....

*****I might turn this mouse into a guinea pig: *****
The E-blue Pequeno.

Product for sale here at affordable price.

There are sellers in the US that I could buy from but they charge double this price. Googling this seller seems to point to reliability.

Product specs from manufacturer

It's *very* small, isn't bluetooth but has an unobtrusive dongle, recharges, has 2 buttons and a scroll wheel, and automatic sleep. With the exception of BT those are the qualifications I was looking for, and the BT was just to avoid having a USB dongle having to be removed every time I pack my netbook away. This one looks like I can leave it in and still fit the case.

I normally only buy from the most well known mouse brands, but I'm going to give this one a shot I think. I found reviews via google that seem to say it's a good mouse if your hand isn't sensitive to its size. If you have any suggestions for something similar from a big name brand, let me know. Thanks!

 

Hey there!

NP...I actually like looking at all different types of BT Mice, anyways!!
Must be the accessory geek in me! LOL

That looks to be a nice little mouse you found there!

If you get it, let us know how it works out for you!
