    Its'a'me again.. Can someone tell me where I can find a wireless mouse that makes use of a charging station? I want a mouse that I can keep plugged into my laptop, but one that won't run the battery down because I didn't unplug the USB and hook it back up to the mouse. I know Logitech had one at one time, but I don't know if they still make it, or what the name of it was.

    Logitech VX Nano and V450 Nano both run off of batteries, which seemingly last forever. Nano receiver resides in a USB port and can stay there forever as it is very small.

    HIGHLY recommended.

    Sorry for the off-topicness, but I'm from Croatia too. :p My family and are originally from Split, a bit further south than Zagreb, right on the Adriatic coast. Nice place!

    On topic: a Bluetooth mouse might serve you well if you have an internal Bluetooth card. All the good stuff about a wireless mouse, with no external USB receiver to plug in.

    Seems like a lot of us from Croatia lately.

    OT: Bluetooth mouse is the best solution for me BC it doesn't use an USB port. Some NBs don't have enough ports.
