Hey guys,

My logitech vx revolution has started to crap out on me. So I'm looking around for a new mouse.

Budget of around 50, perferably <50 USD. will probably look around for sales, so mice up to around 70 USD can be recommended.

I've looked around the forums and have come up with 3 choices - Logitech anywhere mouse MX, logitech M505, and the logitech M705

The vx revolution was perfect for my hand size, and had perfect sensitivity for my needs. Im leaning towards the m505, unless someone can verify that the m705 is pretty much the same mouse, but with better battery life.

comments? suggestions? THanks in advance.

yeap M705 is the new VX revo.
same size & shape, but it uses a unifying receiver now and long battery life

I don't think M505 have side buttons? so if you already get used to side buttons, M505 is not for you.
AnywhereMX is Greatt if the size fits you, else, get M705
