 Don't even go there. Sep 15, 2008
By E. Carlisle
"Geeky Freaky"
I give this mouse one star because there are so many alternatives that outrank it. It's not that this mouse is absolutely useless - it's just terribly, terribly annoying.
Pros:
- Plugs and plays without trouble.
Cons:
- USB Receiver is not integrated into mouse like similar Logitech or Microsoft competitors. This means you have 2 separate parts to keep up with (instead of 2 that fit together), which is less handy as a mobile device.
- The receiver is bulky and awkward.
- To use the mouse, you have to establish a signal by pressing a button on both the receiver and the mouse. This is a major pain. If you spend some time away from keyboard, the mouse will lose signal. You then have to repress both buttons to reestablish the signal. If you're using a USB port behind the laptop, it's a hassle.
- The receiver's button is very small and embedded in the housing. Therefore, you need to use end of fingertips to press it in. It's also positioned poorly, forcing you to place stress on the USB port.
- The "click" feedback is VERY loud, also very bad for mobile use (libraries).
- The mouse has an awkward shape/feel (though this will probably vary for different hands).

Don't waste your time with this mouse! May 22, 2009
By E. Mason
I didn't buy this mouse from Amazon, but it is so bad that I had to warn people interested in this product. I've had my mouse, which I bought because it's pink and was cheap, for about 2 months. I have had problems since day 1. It finally stopped working altogether about an hour ago for no apparent reason. I'm tossing it and purchasing a new mouse. This time, I'll be buying from Amazon and reading the reviews carefully!

By C. Houck
Not happy with and I bought 2 of them. One mouse is working "ok"...the second, gets hung up on the screen or consistently doesn't move at all. I went back to my old mouse!

Terrible. Buy a Logitech or something else. Apr 28, 2010
By D. Alford
I bought two of these, and had to return both of them. Two big problems: (1) synchronizing the mouse and the dongle with the buttons does not work like the instructions say, and it's hit or miss if it will work at all; (2)if I had the dongle plugged in on the left side of the laptop and tried to use the mouse on the right side, the signal was not received - I could only get it to work if I moved the mouse over in front of the laptop about 6 inches away from the dongle.
Utter crap. Save your time and patience. I bought a couple Logitech wireless mice for the same price, plugged them in, and they just worked. Learn from my experience and do that first.

Keep looking Feb 05, 2009
By A. L. Blevins
"Man of Action"
This mouse was a gift from my fiance', and I have continued to use it because she surprised me with it (always nice), and it does the job.
After using it often for two months, here is my opinion:
Pros:
Small size, easy to fit in laptop bag
Scrolling wheel is smooth & silent (don't like the noisy ones)
Cons:
Uses 3 AAA batteries (I will buy a rechargeable one next time, already on second set of batteries)
Not bluetooth (many laptops integrate bluetooth, no need for USB adapter)
Drops connection & reconnecting (as stated in previous review, major hassle)
Bottom line:
Skip this one.
If you want a battery model check out: Logitech 931690-0403 VX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks
If you want a rechargeable model: Logitech MX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse
