great little mouse, June 2, 2006
The mouse fits my hand good and works very well for my son. The USB works great and the batties are still going for constant use for 2 months.
The only reason I gave a 4 is because there is no off button to not be using the batteries. You have to remove the USB from the computer and snap it onto the mouse to actually turn it off. Other than that it works great. We are using it for a desktop computer.

Great little mouse! Great range, easy to get running., April 7, 2006
I've been using this mouse for about an hour now and so far it works great. Although the packaging was a pain to open, this thing was really "plug and play." Easy to get the batteries in, easy to get up and running...just plug the USB receiver in and you're good. No on and off switch to worry about, just plug the receiver attachment into the mouse. That shuts the power off. Battery life is quoted at a year. (We'll see.)
Although the mouse comes with software, I didn't need to use it, which is important since my work laptop doesn't let me install software (no admin rights!).
I thought this device should use 2 AAA batteries instead of 2 AA batteries to cut down on the weight, but the extra weight gives the mouse some heft, which gives it controllability.
The wireless transmitter on this mouse has amazing range. I went 30 feet away and it still worked. I would have tested it further but the mouse cursor was too small to see and my house isn't that big! This would be easily usable for presentations, with the advantage of the presented not being tied down to the laptop and projector.
I didn't realize that this mouse also has some bonus features. The optical reader isn't that bright blinding red, but is invisible. Also, the scroll wheel can scroll left and right, as well as up and down. This hasn't worked for me yet, probably since I didn't install the software!
So far I'm quite happy with it. We'll see how easy it is to travel with it!

Incredible Mouse, September 19, 2005
The mouse is not black like the picture. Instead, it's a shiny gray and it's really a nice! I have had several comments about its appearance and how it stands out from the rest. The mouse is great and is very sensitive to touch, so it responds quite well at high speeds. I would definitely recommend this gadget to anyone who loves a quality, good-looking mouse with great battery life!
