I purchased this mouse to use with the computer I use everyday. It was easy enough to install and felt good in my hand. I don't know about the buttons, mostly because I've never really used them anyway - but really didn't use the mouse long enough to consider them. The first day of installation I noticed the cursor jumping. I put new batteries in (instead of the rechargeable batteries that come with it) and tried again - still jumped. So I decided to put the rechargeable batteries back in and let it charge for 24 hours. It still jumped!!! This caused many problems, as I play a multi-player game online and at one point the cursor jumped to the X before I realized it and I clicked myself out of the game completely - not a good thing. I sent it back.

I love this mouse, it is not "right handed" (it's neutral) and has a decent size for my hand.

There is one odd behavior that some reviews seemed to get wrong. It does stop moving the mouse pointer after a period of non-use. A simple slight movement of the mouse wheel wakes it up, no need to put it back in the charging cradle.

This rechargeable mouse is as good as any with the added plugin power supply i like it more than the ones that get power from the usb becouse it stays powered up to keep a charge on batterys when in cradle and don't stop the charge with computer off.NOTE: don't bang the mouse or drop it my last one stoped working after being droped this is true of any optical mouse.

I have had this mouse for a year now, and I am quite addicted to the forward and back buttons. I love the design...it fits perfectly in my hand and the two extra buttons are in exactly the right places.

It is inconvenient to recharge the thing, but all cordless electronic devices have to be recharged, so I just deal with it.

JUST BUY IT and stop wasting your time reading this review! It is THAT GOOD! Best mouse I have ever used! Anyone that cannot get this mouse to work is an idiot.

It's a shame there aren't more wireless mice this simple and convenient to use.

Although it comes with software to manage the "extra" buttons, this software isn't needed to make the mouse work - just plug it in to an open USB port and go.

Works great on PCs and Macs (I have both).

I haven't time charge time, but I've left it off the charger for days with normal use (avid home user/evenings) without a problem. Charges overnight.

Some reviews say the mouse looses sync and you have to do a manual sync. I thought so too, at first, but it turns out you just need to click and mouse button to wake it up when it enters standby mode. No major hassles there.

It does sometimes "stutter" a bit in its tracking, so I wouldn't use this where precision is essential (hardcore gaming or drawing) but for everyday use, it's convenient and does what it's supposed to.

Hello, I purchased this mouse for my mom and it was at a great price. She has no trouble with it and said that it seems a little smaller than her last which is good because she has small hands. She plays online games and has not had the curser go across the screen like some reviewers claim. As soon as Amazon gets more in I will purchase another for my 8 year old. You will not find a better price with this kind of charger.

Very easy and confortable mouse! I love it! just buy it! Now, I can`t use my laptop with out it!

For the price this is a great mouse for a rechargeable. As with the other reviews, I have not had any issues not sync. Just click one of the buttons when the mouse is in low power mode and the mouse starts right up. I use it on a laptop and the laptop is set to go into standby mode. When coming out of standby mode I just click one of the buttons and the mouse starts to work. Wish there was some type of indication to let you know when to recharge the mouse. Other than that I like this low price wirless rechargeable mouse.

Nice for desk top work. Sometimes takes off on you and slides across the page. You have to remember to put it in the charger when done using it.
