    Just got this cordless laser mouse and was wondering if anyone else has one. I had to do a fix so I could use the forward and back buttons in Firefox. Now I really do think that the mouse is not as accurate as it should be. This is my first wireless mousse and I was wondering if they are all like this. I am thinking of returning it but I would like to know if anyone else can chime in and give me some advise.

    I have the Bluetooth MX900 and love it and find it to be accurate. So if you're note experiencing good performance either your expectations are too high or the sensor is bad. I'd try another one just to see which it is. [ :D]

    Mike,
    I still think that this mouse was released before it was ready. I seemed to have made the mouse a bit more precise by changing mousepads, the one I was using had a pattern on it I guess the lasers didnt like so I switched to a solid color. I also turned down the speed of the pointer.

    I am keeping it for couple of reasons. I really like the base that charges the mouse and it also has a battery meter on the mouse itself. I also like the feel of it and the buttons.

    Good luck

    Took the Mouse back and exchanged it for a new one. Everything seems fine now I think I just had a bad one.

    How did you fix the problem with the back and foward buttons in Firefox? I have the same problem.
