    I have a new Dell E1505 and also recently bought the V270.

    When I first tried to set it up using the Logitech software CD that comes with the V270, it said that it was not compatitable with my type of bluetooth. I could have sworn that the v270 was one of the purchasing accessory options at the Dell site so I went back to their sie to double-check and sure enough, you can buy a V270 as an add on to the E1505. I then tried to install the software again with the same result!

    After debating wheter to go back to the store where I bot the v270, I decided to try the "bluetooth manager" icon on my taskbar and lo & behold, it intantly recognized the v270 and I was using the mouse within a minute!

    So, yes, it is compatable....just make sure you use the bluetooth manager instead of the Logitech software. The mouse works fine. It is quite responsive and no problems so far!

    Good Luck!
