    What's a good mouse for a Lenovo X220 tablet?

    I want something that is small, light, and FAST. My last mouse was a bluetooth mouse and it was verrry slow. Are Bluetooth mice a bad idea?

    I also want the dongle to be something very small so that I can just leave it on and not have to taken it off.

    I also want it to have the ability to go 'back' and 'forward' on a web browser.

    Thanks

    It would work.

    The advantage of the one I linked is that it tracks accurately on ANY somewhat flat surface aside from medical grade glass. Even normal glass works fine. I used mine on a glass desktop with no mousepad and it was perfect.

    if you want to game then have a look at razer orochi! even if you don't game their speed is 2000DPI when wireless which is still above the average for 1080p screens! no dropouts according to it's users! I ordered mine from amazon now! :cool:

    2000DPI doesn't matter when you're on Bluetooth. Lag city.
