    Can't decide between these two Bluetooth mice..

    They both seem to get pretty good reviews.. I'll be returning my craptastic Targus Bluetooth Laser mouse tonight.. I don't know why but it tracks 1 million miles per second for one, then falls asleep in 15 seconds or less if you don't touch it.

    Anyways, is there anybody out there that has used both and can tell me which one they liked better as far as tracking, comfort?

    Basically, the Logitech is optical and the Microsoft is laser. Microsoft also has a rechargeable battery it comes with (not that you couldn't just put a niMH in the Logitech to get the same functionality). Logitech is $49.99 and Microsoft is $89.99 (probably because it's Laser and newer).

    Thoughts?
