    I'm in process of reviewing the Targus Bluetooth portable. I'm definitely going to replace my prior Targus model with it. It's pricey though, MSRP $80.

    I've been using the Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse for several months now and absolutely love it. The thing I like most about it is the weight. That may seem odd when considering a portable device, but a heavier mouse allows for more precise control - IMHO. It's a tad larger than the Targus, but not so much that it takes up considerable more space in my puter bag. You simply plug in the wirelsss USB dongle, turn it on, and the mouse is recongnized. It's great. I saw it on sale at one of the big box stores this past weekend for $30. Can't remember which one. It is normally $50.

    First time I've come across this... its not out until november though. Question: it operates on the 2.4GHz freqency, does that mean its bluetooth?
