    I bought a W3J about 2 weeks ago and i absolutely love it. Now that I am going to college though, I think that i will purchase a mouse because it will make it a little bit easier than the touch pad. My questions to you is, what mouse should i get?

    I really want a bluetooth mouse because I have a bluetooth chip and i would not have to connect it to anything, just hold the mouse. I would love that. However, I am having trouble finding one that works well. I have seen the Logitech V270, but I don't know anything more about it.

    Also, if i should not even get the Bluetooth, let me know as well and could you recommend me some good other mouse's.

    Thanks in advance

    Get a mouse, its worth getting one as you will have more mobility and not be caught by the small square touch pad. I dont have BT in my notebook, but still getting a wireless mouse is good when needing to scroll down in pages and documents. Some good mice (basic mice) are the Logitech v200(has a wireless USB dongle and use it all the time) Microsoft 4000 or 2000 is another choice too. For BT, go for the v270.

    The logitech v270 is a good mouse. The battery life is excellent... My only minor gripe with it is about its ergonomics. It just doesn't fit the hand as well as my M$ ntelli mouse.
