4.0 out of 5 stars IBM Mouse, April 1, 2005

By	Creature "sparrow2003" (New York, NY) - See all my reviews

Although ackward in the beginning, once you try you won't want another mouse. I initially took one for my laptop and for travel but I eded up using it at home. I like the lided red wheel, the lightness and the small size of this comfortable mouse - also very precise and sharp. I'd give it 5 stars but I prefer 4 stars because it is not as quiet as I wished it would be. Also I give it a plus for the soft touch - it is covered with a special material.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect mouse, February 13, 2007

By	A.P. (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews

I decided to buy this particular mouse because I got myself a new ThinkPad and wanted to have a mouse that "matched" my laptop in terms of appearance. I also wanted a smaller mouse for when I am on the road. What I received however was much more than that!
This mouse has been so far the best mouse I have ever used! It is small, so it feels a little bit strange in the beginning, but extremely precise and sensitive in its response to hand movements. I had read that after you get used to it then all other mouses seem unnecessarily big and bulky and I need to say that this is true. After using this mouse at home all other mouses I have used at work don't even come close! The material it is made from is also very nice, as it provides a very nice grip. As per the looks, the red-lighted scrolling wheel makes it just fantastic! Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and I strongly recommend it. Two thumbs up!

5.0 out of 5 stars IBM 3-Button Travel Wheel Mouse , April 20, 2006

By	writer_editor - See all my reviews

I borrowed a friend's IBM 3-Button Travel Wheel Mouse to use temporarily, while I set up my new computer. However, after only two days of using this mouse, I have grown to like it so much that today I ordered one for everyday use in my home office. As another reviewer noted, the mouse feels small when you first start using it, but now that I've become accustomed to it, I don't want to use any other mouse. Its smaller footprint (not quite 3.5 inches, as opposed to my 5-inch IntelliMouse) makes it especially comfortable for people with small palms. The tracking is very accurate on smooth, hard surfaces, the buttons work easily, and the suede-like texture makes it extremely comfortable to hold. Another reviewer mentioned that the mouse is not as quiet as they'd like it to be, but the one that I've been using is completely silent. This one is definitely a winner.
