    I like the size of the VX Revolution mouse but I like the smaller receiver of the VX Nano, can you buy the Revolution and then buy (inexpensively) the Nano receiver and get them to work together? If not then I probably better stick with the VX Nano because of it's nano receiver.

    I read somewhere it doesn't work.

    The ideal combo is VX Revolution Bluetooth at cheap price.

    In most cases it doesn't seem to work, but there has been at least one user here who has managed to get it work.

    Actually yeah, there is away you can pair the VX to the nano receiver.

    Look in Logitech's store for replacement receivers, it should point you in the direction.

    That might have been me. The Logitech Connect Utility works for me to connect my VX Nano and VX Revolution mice with the others receiver.

    1. Can anyone tell me if I can use VX Nano with the integrated bluetooth of my Vostro 1500? I'm asking this because someone told me today that it can't be done.

    2. Is the VX Revolution using bluetooth also? If yes, I have the same 1st question.
