Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Work and play faster and more comfortably with the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000. The freedom of wireless, along with high-definition laser technology, a magnifier function, great battery life, and an intelligent tracking system, makes the Laser Mouse 6000 one of the most advanced mice you can buy. Navigate Web pages and documents more quickly, and easily enlarge and edit details.


Simplify your desktop with wireless technology.

Zoom in on your work with the innovative Magnifier.

The smart receiver cuts interference from other devices.

Scroll horizontally and vertically.

Customizable buttons.
With the Wireless Laser Mouse 6000, you'll also enjoy great comfort, thanks to an innovative ergonomic design that's made to cut down on hand fatigue. And because style is important, too, the mouse features a sophisticated finish and fetching industrial design. What's more, customizable buttons let you assign your favorite functions to the button of your choice.

Microsoft High-Definition Technology
Whether you're working on a document, perusing a Web page, or playing the latest video game, you can enhance your performance with the Wireless Laser Mouse 6000's high-definition technology. It delivers more precision and responsiveness, while offering smoother tracking on more surfaces than ever before. To put it simply, it's the most advanced tracking system available.

Go Wireless
Free yourself from the hassle of tangled wires with Microsoft's wireless technology. It's simple: the mouse transmits information directly to a receiver that's plugged into your computer. Smart power-saving technologies give your wireless mouse and keyboard unprecedented battery life, which means you'll enjoy more than six months of uninterrupted functionality. Meanwhile, Microsoft Smart Receiver software reduces the likelihood of interference with other wireless signals.

Magnify
The Magnifier function on Microsoft mouse products is like a magnifying glass that is held up to your computer screen. With a simple press and hold motion, the Magnifier enlarges the area of your screen that fits inside the lens. You can easily adjust both the size of the lens and the level of its magnification. You can even use it when you touch up your photos or handle other detailed tasks. The Magnifier works in most programs.

Note that the Magnifier is not compatible with Direct3D API in full screen mode, media players, OpenGL, and layered windows. If you are using Mac OS X, the Magnifier enlarges text and images on the entire screen.

Longer Battery Life
Spend more time working wirelessly and less time searching for new batteries. Microsoft's breakthrough power-saving technology extends battery life, so you can get more done with less hassle. Microsoft wireless mouse products automatically enter standby mode when inactive for a certain length of time, which minimizes unnecessary battery drain. In addition, the light in the mouse's optical sensor illuminates only as brightly as is necessary to provide optimal tracking power.

Full Tilt
Scroll up and down and side to side more smoothly, efficiently, and easily with the innovative four-way tilt wheel. It's simply a more efficient way to navigate documents, spreadsheets, and Web pages. The entire scroll wheel tilts from side to side, acts as a button, and reacts to how quickly you roll the wheel to enable smooth, accurate maneuverability. For example, if you're working with a super-wide worksheet, you can tilt the wheel from side to side to scroll right and left, without clicking tiny scroll arrows.



Product Description

Enjoy unprecedented precision with a mouse as powerful as it is comfortable to use. Navigate Web pages and documents more quickly, and easily enlarge and edit details.

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good mouse., November 20, 2005
By N. Nguyen (san jose, ca) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Overview:
I use this mouse at work where I do software development. The mouse is nothing exceptional when taking into consideration a Logitech mouse at the same price point. The MS Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 offers slightly more and no less than previous MS Explorer offerings. From a functional standpoint, this is a good thing. Ergonomically sound and as responsive as a wired counterpart, this mouse does well tracking on a mouse pad or table top but does have some trouble with a white reflective surface. I have not played any games with this mouse so I cannot attest to it responsiveness on that extreme but for everyday usage, it is beyond what is needed. The resolution of the mouse is excellent even on a fast setting. The range of the mouse is about 6ft which is fine if the mouse stays in front of the computer but does not work when across the room. This may be a problem for some but the mouse is never further than 1 ft from the receiver for me. Loses a star for having a shorter range which may be the reason you will not find the range advertised on the box.

Pros:
- smooth scroll wheel
- responsive and precise
- ergonomic

Cons:
- 6ft range vs. Logitech 32ft, this is not the mouse to use for a media center across the room
- difficult to click scoll wheel and small side button

4.0 out of 5 stars The irony of being a Mac user!, November 29, 2005
Except for the original 1-button Apple mouse, every mouse I used with my iMac produced jerky cursor movement (irrespective of mousing surface). This includes Logitech mice (even the mighty MX1000), which unfortunately come packed with some of the worst mouse software for Mac OS X.

Then I tried the M$ Laser Mouse 6000 and it is flawless on the Mac. The cursor moves predictably and smoothly every time. In 2 weeks of use so far, there hasn't been a single problem. The software is good, too; unlike Logitech, it is "smart" enough to maintain separate preferences for multiple users.

The mouse itself is near perfect. Despite its reliance on two heavy AA batteries, it glides easily enough with just enough solidity of feel. The scroll wheel is big and smooth, though its middle-button clickability is difficult. The side buttons work well and are well-placed, though they are a bit too soft when clicked. The silver-grey finish is high-quality, with rubberized grips and Apple-complementing aesthetics.

It gets 4 stars because its build quality and ergonomics are still 2nd-best to Logitech, though that gap is narrowing.
