    Does anyone know any awesome Bluetooth mice? I have been looking around and see a lot of bad reviews on a variety of mice.

    Look no further than the Razer Orochi.

    Razer Orochi all the way just because of the dual mode.

    I like the Razor too but wasn't out so I got a MS 5000 bluetooth mouse. Works well for a smaller mouse plus has side buttons. Battery life is good about 2.5 months on 2 double AA's with daily usage.

    Damn...the Razer Orochi is pretty expensive. I am not really a hardcore gamer. Any good deals around on these mice or maybe less expensive brands?

    Been using the Logitech V470 Bluetooth mouse for about a year now. Does a great job.

    Being a gamer is not a credential for buying a gaming device. ;) I typically always buy gaming-grade mice and mousepads because they have better quality, are more comfortable, and have more features. The Razer Orochi is the best you can get for Bluetooth . . . it's just expensive. Google for reviews.

    Haha, smooth. Although I will grant you, the Arc is a very nice mouse. I bought one for my mum for her birthday last year. She ended up not liking it, so I kept it around. :p
