    Now I almost have all my stuff together however with the mouse I am undecided. I like the Mogo Mouse because it is Bluetooth and it can also used as Remote Control (It would be the Mogo Mouse x54 Media). I also like the idea that it can be stored in the Laptop for Traveling perfect! On the other hand i dont think it will be a very ergonomic mouse for heavy use?

    The VX Nano seems to have a very good size but i am not excited to get the Reciever stuck in my new Laptop and then carrying it around...but I guess I rather get a good mouse that I have to carry!

    The VX Revolution is the only mouse I so in a store and it looked a bit big for me..It seems it has another button what i would appreciate...

    So i was wondering if you could share your experience/recomendation especially in the specs i mentioned;

    Thank you very much for your help!

    I am using the VX nano, and I love it! Best wireless mouse I have ever gotten. I personally love the small reciever because i break a lot of recievers due to being to long. :)

    A friend of mine who I work with and play WoW with has a Nano and I must say, it's simply amazing. Probably the most responsive and comfortable wireless mouse I have ever used.

    I have the VX revolution and love the mouse. It has been great. It does have a dongle, and a larger one than the VX nano, but it is still pretty small, that is my only real complaint/inconvenience though. But I like that it is slightly bigger than the nano(too small for me) and the dongle stores in the mouse when you are transporting the laptop and shuts the mouse off automatically. The slightly larger size makes it feel more like a desktop mouse and is comfortable to my hands. Overall the mouse seems very responsive and has the features I want(frictionless wheel and back and forward buttons). It uses 1 AA battery and it lasts a long time. My 2 cents...

    bluetooth mice aren't for gaming, the mogo is amazing for travel and convenience. But it def is not for games.

    stirfriedsushi you're definitely wrong here... it is for games, and even for gaming, just not for the most intensive action-packed titles :p take for example solitaire or chess or go... you might have some problems with world-record-breaking-time in minesweeper though :p
