    It should work fine. I got the V270 BT mouse and it worked fine, even w/o drivers installed.

    Check Logitech's site. I know my G15 works sort of with OS X, but not fully. Just double check, and buy from somewhere with a generous return policy.

    The v270 is um... well, no, i definently would not use it for graphic design.
    It works okay, but now that I've gotten used to the large touchpad, I only use it for windows games.
    The main problem I have with it, is that it doens't have a good speed setting. It's either EXTREMELY fast or way too slow. I can't remember if I installed drivers for it though, so if you install the drivers, it may make a difference.

    Besides, it's too light for a graphic mouse. I use my MS Laser mouse for photoshop stuff, it's much heavier and more accurate. Though, the signal drops out a bit more.

    well, it's about the best BT mouse that I know of. Unless you want to pay the incredible amount that Apple wants for the Mightly Mouse.
    But again, I'll have ot install real drivers to see if the v270 will work more to my liking.
    You may like the speed setitngs more than me, it's really personal opinion.
