    I'm looking to purchase a wireless mouse for my 9500t. Any recommendations?

    I was looking for the thread on shadow copies. I must've overlooked it b/c I can't find it.

    I think thats it for now.

    I just bought a Kensington Ci75m Wireless Notebook mouse. Actually I ended up buying another one for my other notebook as well. By far the best wireless mouse I have ever used, or seen for notebook use.

    Thinner than a standard notebook mouse so you can more easily pack in your travel bag. Back-up power for wireless or USB powered operation (good for airline travel, that don't permit wireless use). Automatic sleep state conserves power (a click of the mouse button wakes the mouse)

    The USB dongle is unique as well. It completely covers the optics when in storage mode.

    Thanks, I'll have to check it out. I don't know if its just me, but after being on the laptop for awhile using the touch pad, my wrist and forearm start hurting! lol. Also, I have the same specs as you. After getting rid of all the junk on your comp, how much free space did you have on your hard drives? I've downloaded several programs since deleting all the junk, but I think I was down to like 68.9gb free of 84.8gb (seemed pretty low to me). D: 93.0gb free of 93.1gb, E: 1.80gb free of 8.34gb.

    Yes, I have bluetooth

    Was asking if you wanted a bluetooth mouse or not. They tend to be a bit more expensive, but you don't have to carry an extra part which is nice.

    I purchased a Microsoft bluetooth presenter mouse for my dv 9500 and it works great. You can use the internal bluetooth and don't need an external dongle. It may not be a good mouse if your a gamer but it works well. Its pretty expensive so check ebay where i got a new one for $39.00
