Well, I bit the bullet--BT mouse

Well, after debating for a month or so, I finally decided to place an order for the AnyCom BTM-100 Bluetooth mouse from Provantage:

My main concerns so far have been battery life, and gaming performance, but this mouse has seen nothing but praise from the what-ever-little reviews i've seen, so I decided to give it a try.

I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

 

Oo oooo , Tell us how it is, i was debating this one too.

 

hmm this one looks quite good i must say.

 

hi, I am also in the market for a notebook mouse, one question is, do I need the bluetooth ready in my notebook to be able to use this mouth?

 

Very good question, im guessing you have to BT ready your lappy, since i dont see anywhere where the "mouth" is the reciever. I just see it say "you can charge it here"

 

You can buy a usb bluetooth plug-in like this:

I have a Kensington bluetooth pocket mouse that works well if you already have it built in.

That mouse is designed for notebooks with integrated bluetooth, and doesn't come with a bluetooth dongle. If you want to use it with a non-bluetooth ready notebook, you will need to buy a USB bluetooth dongle seperately. There's also a package deal with that mouse that includes a bluetooth dongle, but it's around $70.

I still haven't recieved the mouse yet; according to FedEx tracking, it's still stuck at Illonios. I'll let you guys know when it arrives.

 

Just got the mouse

It's actually smaller and lighter than it looks, almost to the point of being uncomfortable. tracking, so far has been really good with it; a bit overly sensitive, but very responsive. no noticable lag time, except for 1 second delay when coming out of standby mode.

 

same here just got it couple of minutes ago REALLY SMALL! but then you just have to hold it another way.. if your hands are big.. thing is also light, usb charger does not need any drivers at all thats another good thing. Just plug and charge, battery compartment can be a little hard to take off though maybe ill write a mini review on it but first got to write a review on my msi 1029 first.

 

The Kensington Pocketmouse Bluetooth optical is a really nice mouse for those with built-in Bluetooth. A little smaller than a full-sized mouse, I think it is the perfect compromise for portability; very comfortable to use

 

Like ive said before, It's ugly as hell

 

Alright after about a week of usage:

The battery on it last just under 5 days with normal usage. Just plain annoying to me because I like to use it during the weekdays, then just leave it charging for the weekends. Charging takes close to 6 hours, but the mouse is usable while charging.

I can also discharge the mouse completely in 2 days by playing world of warcraft all day

the buttons are louder than average, again not a big deal, but I do plan to use my laptop in a library from time to time, so it could be a bit annoying.

 

i decided to stear clear of a wirless mouse for my N6210. wireless mice are always a little heavier than ones with a cord and the microsoft optical and laser mice are my favorites.
