Color Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
There are as many opinions about mice as there are hands to fit them, so it is always a bit tricky to review them. To give you some context, I will begin by telling you the type of mouse I prefer, which is medium sized and simple. For example, the standard Microsoft USB mouse fits my hand perfectly. The larger premium optical mice from Logitech are a bit clunky for me, and all of the navigation buttons tend to get in my way more than help, though the scroll wheels and buttons are excellent.

The Verbatim 96781 is similar in width to a standard desktop mouse, but the rear is chopped off, leaving no wrist support. I have been stress testing it at work and have found that I can adjust to this, but it is not ideal. However, this is a notebook mouse and not really meant for primary computer use, leaving this trade-off in size vs. function very understandable. If you are used to notebook mice, I think you will find the size a very good compromise, as opposed to the somewhat painful skinny mice.

The primary selling point in the promotions for this mouse is the USB dongle. Indeed, it is as small as it could possibly be without requiring a tool for removal. This is a natural progression of the ever decreasing dongle size and a welcome change. Will you, as they say, be able to leave it plugged in all the time? That depends on your laptop case. The dongle still protrudes from the side and might still snag if you have a hard case that perfectly fits the laptop. Otherwise, I think it would be fine to leave it in during transport.

The scroll wheel is very average in feel and the buttons feel decently "clicky." This is certainly a cut above the ultra cheap no-name mice you might have had the misfortune of using in the past, with decent construction. The dongle can be housed within the mouse, as is the standard for most mice now. The range is very good, despite the diminutive size. In terms of aesthetics, the mouse looks completely generic and should match most electronics, mimicking the Dell look. However, I am basing this on the black and grey color scheme. Other colors will likely catch your fancy if you are looking to make a statement without going out on too much of a limb.

Connecting the mouse and setting it up is all very simple and automatic. However, after using the mouse during regular work, I have run into one major annoyance: the thing falls asleep like a narcoleptic. Many wireless mice automatically go into a sleep mode after a predetermined period of time, requiring a button press to wake them up. This is a good feature, as it extends battery life without the use of an on/off button, which most forget to use. However, this little guy falls asleep far too fast. The included literature even mentions this short delay. What that means is that if you are doing a task that requires you to stop using the mouse periodically, the mouse will just seem to stop working. This could be especially problematic if you are giving a presentation and talking between each slide. Waking up the mouse with a click of either button is simple, but the sleep time really should be much longer.

In conclusion, the Verbatim 96781 Nano Wireless mouse is a solid mouse that will work well for most notebook purposes. The range is good, the dongle is impressively small, and the construction, while not remarkable, is suitable for the price range. If you can look past the compressed shape and bedtime habits, it is a very solid buy.

Color Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
It is quite hard to review mice these days because there are a plethora of them in the market. However small mice are sometimes on the expensive side and do not really work as advertised. The Verbatim is a gem in this category because of the following simple reasons:

1. Great VALUE
2. Light Weight
3. Excellent Design
4. PLUG n PLAY

The box includes the mouse, a usb dongle, AAA (triple a) batteries, software, and manuals.

Yes, software is included...but sometimes I feel that these devices should work out of the box and no additional software should be necessary...and for me one of the core features MUST be cross platform interoperability. This MOUSE works on PC's as well as MAC's by just plugging the dongle in. There is a slot on the rear of the mouse that you can insert the dongle into, which in effect powers off the mouse.

The scroll wheel is perfectly balanced..not too tight and not too loose. It feels comfortable and does not make your nerves tingle (most computer users will know what i mean about tingle).

I tested the mouse on the following surfaces:

1. A desk
2. Marble Counter Tops

It worked perfectly on both surfaces...and that says a lot for this mouse. Why? Simply because most mice that cost double what this mouse costs do not respond well to marble counter tops...they simply refuse to move...this puppy moved. You no longer need to spend $$ on a blue mouse (no brands mentioned) to get this support.

Excellent product, excellent value, and perfect composition.
5/5

Color Name:Black|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)
I got this mouse to use with my ASUS Eee PC 1000HE 10-Inch Netbook (1.66 GHz Intel Atom N280 Processor, 1 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive, 10 GB Eee Storage, Bluetooth, XP Home, 9.5 Hour Battery Life) Black. I had looked at some of those little "mini" mice, but they seemed like they would cramp my hand, plus they were not cordless.

This mouse seems to be just what I needed. The "nano" receiver sticks out less than 1/2" from my netbook. The mouse is a nice size for my hand, about the size of a normal mouse.

The installation was simple. I inserted two AAA batteries (not included) into the mouse and put the receiver into the USB port. That was it...everything worked fine without any software. For travel purposes, the receiver clicks into the bottom of the mouse for safekeeping.

Overall, a perfectly good solution to my need for a netbook computer mouse. Recommended.
