    Currently, Dell has a sale on both of these mice making them both less than $35.00. However, I don't know which one to get. Really, it comes down to size. I might be carrying this around campus sometimes, and the main purpose would be for CAD. So is it better to get a full sized mouse, or a more portable, but smaller model?

    @OP did you purchase either yet?

    Because, Amazon has the M505 in Silver for $25[/URL][/B], and the M510 for $30 (no taxes)!

    @OP if the Logitech M305 would be under any consideration, Best Buy has 2 colors for $11.99 which is a nice value. : ) I have the mouse and it works great.

    Yes, I went with the M305 because it was smaller and hopefully more portable. So far its great.

    Those are good prices! I live in Canada though, and the cheapest I could find was $35.00. Do you know if Best Buy prices are the same in the US as in Canada? I kind of doubt it.

    I don't think the pricing would be the same, if it was that would be a good thing : )
    Here is the M505 pricing at Canada BB:
