    I just bought a Dell m1530 and I want a nice mouse. It needs to be laser and I really prefer bluetooth to avoid having anything in the usb port. Microsofts site claims that the Presenter 8000 is bluetooth but it lists a usb port as needed...

    Any help is greatly appreciated. :)

    Check out the mouse thread link in my sig. There is a discussion of RF and Bluetooth mice in it.

    Thank you, what did you think of my idea to us the mouse from the vx revolution mouse and keyboard package?

    i use the mouse from the logitech mx5000 set. i figured, if i'm going to spend money on a mouse, i might as well buy the set and get a keyboard with it (and then sell it). with a rebate, the set goes for $50 or so, at least as cheap as, and often cheaper than, most standalone bluetooth mice. so far, it's been great.
