    Hi, I just bought a Sony Vaio S13P and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for bluetooth mice. I am a frequent gamer, but I am looking for something relatively small. I was looking at a Razer Orochi, but I wanted to know if that can be used on almost any surface like my old BlueTrack mouse, or if you need a mousepad for it. Any suggestions?

    You may find something from Logitech.

    I have an orochi, but would not reccomend it.... i find it uncomfortable to hold, the ambidextrous design means my pinkie always rubs awkwardly on the lefthand thumb rest, this combined with its aggressive sleep "feature" ( the mouse goes into sleep mode very quickly, so when performing passive tasks like browsing it often takes a few seconds to wake up after not moving it for a minute, not too annoying, but definitely not expected for the price).

    I also own two of these

    Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000

    And they perform flawlessly, comfortable, accurate, long battery life, and works on virtually every surface i have tried. My first one lasted about 3 years before the left click started to become a bit dodgy, and i just replaced it with another.... plenty of places will have them for under $30, so even better :)
