    I'm searching for a:
    - Small receiver is a must.
    - Comfortable for a guy with kinda big hands. But still kinda small haha.
    - Right handed. Which 98% of them already are.
    - A button or two (along with left, right, scroll).
    - Laser/long battery/replacable battery is always a plus but not a must.
    - Budget: $100, preferably under 50 though haha, it's just a mouse xD

    M505 from Logitech looks perfect, but no buttons. If there's nothing out there for me, I'll stick with it.

    Thanks for your time

    I used to be partial bet. Microsoft and Logitech..Now I just lean more towards Logitech :D I have found Logitech Mice to be reliable, great battery life & just about everything to be great.

    I am not sure if you will be able to find the Anywhere mouse at WM, but I would guess that BB or Staples, etc. would have it :)

    I agree with the list Cin' gave but would add the M950 Performance MX. It is a full sized mouse and comfortable for big hands. I have this, a VX Nano and the Marathon Mouse. I'm 6' 2" with largish hands. The VX Nano is the same as the Anywhere Mouse and I find it to small for long use. The Performance is very comfortable but I am currently using the Marathon most of the time. I like this the most, but if it was slightly bigger it would be even better.

    I think Razer Orochi will suit you well although it is not specifically made for right hand. It is small, wireless, branded, good looking and has a resonable pricetag.

    Logitech/Microsoft has very good mice too.
