The best wireless mouse?

I found this one deserving special attention for us, laptop users on the move.

looks kinda cool, but the wheel looks weird. this isn't anything special though; there are a few notebook wireless mice that hold the receiver. personally, I use a bluetooth mouse so no receiver is necessary.

 

Interesting, but it lacks the extra buttons that I've become accustomed to.

 

yes... was going to say that myself.

It doesn't even have a tilt wheel. That should be standard by now. You can't manufacture a mouse in 2006 with no tilt wheel.

I like the over all design of it though. Nice strong colors and a cool way of storing the reciever. I like the comment (see the link) that the reciever should be a flash drive. I never even thought of it. Wouldn't have to be big but would be kind of neat. It could hold firmware info and user settings and software for the mouse so that you wouldn't have drag around the installation cd or download the software for another computer. Actually, that's a fantastic idea.

 

You use your tilt wheel? I find the thing annoying. My MX1000 is either too sensitive or I'm too clumsy...every time I attempt to use the tilt wheel I activate its assigned function when scrolling the wheel or using it as a button. Good idea but not practical for my needs.

 

Is this mouse not a little small, looks more for a woman.
I have on the road a V500 and thats even small.
I get cramp in mine hand if it is too small.

 

Wireless mouses are unreliable, more expensive and annoying. They keep on running out of battery and I always have a problem with them. The point of a laptop is to have everything in one component, not having things like USB adaptors and recievers sticking out off the side. I find that annoying. I know wireless mouses can be useful, but when you're travelling, you won't really use your mouse, would you....you would really only use it when you're on a long flight for example. If you want a reliable mouse that's small and compact, go for a wired mini optical mouse. These days, mouses come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes, and you can get very small wired mouses

 

I'm going to buy a Logitech G7 laser...pretty much considered one of the best mice out there...

 

My Microsoft wireless notebook mouse never drops a signal, costs $25, and gets 3 months of battery life with heavy use.

 

smart move- that's the one i have

 

don't forget that the G7 is turqouise,

hahaha ^_^

 

Logitech MX1000 for t3h win.

i've been so incredibly happy with it. charge lasts 10 days as well.

 

MS Wireless laser 6000

 

same here, except i have a logitech mouse and i never turn it off cuz i always forget.

 

Benq M310

 

The Logitech MX1000 is the best. Its not the best mobile mouse but its a great wireless mouse. I make use of all the available buttons :-D

 

I have a kensington..got it for around 29.99...its a good deal...just poerfect sensitivuty...compact size...standy-by to save battery...and get a carry-case...its a nice one to consider buying...

 

I just got my G7 but I haven't opened it yet cause I know that once I do I'll get absolutely no work done. But I plan to open it today! Friday!

 

i now have Dual Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000's hahahaha, my og one got scratched but i didn't pay anything for it so i just got another one, i keep the og one in my chrome bag (which is bloody made out of kevlar!) and one on my desk.

my new one is actually better, some complaints with the first one were that the forward thumb button had to be pressed pretty far down but this isn't the case on the new on i have they must have fixed this problem.

 

I too have a G7 coming in. Should be here tomorrow, Tuesday at the latest. I hope I like it!! Oh, and:

Have you ever been to the store and seen it?? It's dark green, nowhere near turquoise!! It's actually a very nice looking mouse

 

Yeah, in my lighting it actually looks black. If you look really close though you can tell its a very dark green. Its a very nice mouse indeed.

 

Yeah Tilt wheel blows big time!
