This is the 3rd mouse I've had with the same problem. The cable or cord keeps shorting out after several months. There is no replacement cable or replacement cord for this mouse. I bought the one one ebay for the G500, but it does not fit. Plus the scroll wheel does keep shifting around. When it works, it works great, but these two problems really can make you tear your hair out sometimes.
UPDATE OCTOBER 2014:
Got an exchange through Amazon. No hassle. Kudos to Amazon. However, the replacement mouse has the same problem with the scroll wheel, which likes to roll on its own back to its preferred location. Seems like one point of the wheel is heavier than the rest and prefers to be down. Either that or the axle is bent. Either way, same defect in both mice. The web has a lot of people complain about this problem, not just on this mouse but other mice with the free scroll function. It is a design defect that Logitech will not acknowledge nor fix. As an example, Google search "M705 scrolling problem" or "G700S scrolling problem" at the Logitech forums website. You may need to go to cache because some of these threads have apparently been deleted. The Logitech support specialist on these threads just dismiss the problem. A shame.
UPDATE 7/2015
After using this mouse for a while I found that if you open up the mouse and stick a tiny bit of lint or tissue next to the scroll wheel, you will have much less of a "drifting" problem of the wheel rotating on its own. That problem is fixed for me.
It tracks really well.
However, the cable started shorting out right near where the cable enters the mouse. To fix this I used a razor blade to carefully strip the rubber off the cable, found the site of shorting, and twisted the copper wire back together. Put some electric tape around the cable, and voila. It's working like new.
Wish the cable weren't so much in the way sometimes, but read that the wireless versions may not track as well as wired.
ORIGINAL REVIEW:
The free scroll function theoretically is attractive, but while on this function on this particular mouse, if you take your finger off the scroll wheel, the page will still scroll up or down several lines or sometimes up to 2/3 of the page by itself, which is really irritating. If you are on free scroll and want to stop at a certain point on the page and not have the page drift up and down, you have to put your finger on the wheel again to stop it, but of course now you are at a point on the page you didn't intend to be at, and if you take your finger off the wheel, there goes the page drifting again, so you end up wasting a lot of time adjusting your cursor location, without success unless you switch back to the click scroll mode. I find that if I switch back to the click mode once I get to the vicinity on the page I want, then I have more control over where my cursor stays at. However, the click mode scrolling on this mouse is too slow and stodgy for my routine needs.
In my opinion, this is pretty shoddy functionality for free-scroll. Free-scroll shouldn't work like that. It should scroll until your finger stops the scroll wheel, and then stay at that point on the page and not drift up and down. It seems like the wheel tends to scroll on its own until a specific side of it is facing up, as if its weight is not balanced so that one side of it is heavier and likes to be down or as if the fulcrum is not centered. That is a design flaw and this should go back to the drawing board.
I bought two of these mice. For the first one, the drifting problem was mild, somewhat hindering but tolerable. For this second one that I just purchased, the drifting problem is pretty bad. Maybe I got a lemon this time, or has this become just the "standard" for these mice? I certainly hope not the latter, because you would think that a company like Logitech would have higher standards than that. There are ways to open up a regular mouse, undo a cog, and make your own free-scrolling mouse with or without this drifting problem for much cheaper than 25 bucks. Can someone in the know tell me whether it would be worthwhile for me to try to exchange this mouse for another one, or do they all work like this these days?
The top of the mouse and the left/right buttons are made of a textured plastic and the sides are a rubbery grip. It's a small touch, but it really gives the mouse a quality feel to it.
Both the back and forward buttons are placed on the left side of the mouse, which is my preferred placement. Some mice put the forward button on the right side and I find that my pinky isn't really trained well enough to use the button.
The scroll wheel feels like it's weighted, but it's still very easy to rotate. Below the scroll wheel is a toggle switch that will turn on and off the stepped scrolling in the wheel. When off, you can spin the weighted wheel and let it go on its own momentum for a while. The stepped scrolling mode feels a bit looser than what I'm used to, but it still works great. My only complaint with this mouse is that the looser scrolling causes me to accidentally scroll while I'm pressing the middle button. It really only bothers me when I'm playing first person shooters because sometimes I'll accidentally switch weapons when I click the middle button. The scroll wheel also tilts left and right if you're looking for that functionality.
Pros:
+ Feels as solid as any Logitech mouse that I've ever owned: MX 500, MX 700, and the G7.
+ The curvier design feels a bit more ergonomic to me.
+ Good button placement with back and forward buttons on the left.
+ Wheel tilts left and right for those who are looking for that extra functionality.
+ Scroll wheel has a free spinning mode. I'm not sure what it's good for, but it's kind of fun to spin the wheel and watch it scroll long documents.
Cons:
- The scroll wheel is a bit looser than what I'm used to. There's a tiny bit of play in between each click of the wheel. Unfortunately, that little bit of movement is enough to register in games so when you try to middle click in an FPS game, it's very easy to accidentally switch weapons too.
Overall, it's a great mouse for desktop and office use. Gamers would probably be better served by Logitech's many gaming mice though.

To understand why I need a wire mouse I use my computer 14-17 hours a day,
I was needed to finish a project under pressure and BAM no battery since then I switch to WIRE.
Very happy with this mode Logitech Corded Mouse (M500) I had before many others mouses cheap and more expensive, this one is the BEST!
So from the greatest inventions in the worlds I like the MOUSE who ever invented, I had many many PCs in my live even now I have VMs for 30+ min and do my job...
This is my mate and made for me "Logitech Corded Mouse (M500)"

All the other functionality of the mouse is great. It slides very smoothly on its four skates; the laser is very precise and tracks my movements very well even on my cheap cloth mouse pad; the buttons click smoothly and without hesitation; and the scroll wheel moves well in either mode. I love the two side buttons, which default to page forward and page back in my web browser. The wheel clicks down to act as an additional primary mouse button, and you can tilt it side to side (not many programs recognize this functionality though).
One other nice thing about this mouse is that you no longer need to install Logitech's driver software. The mouse works as soon as you plug it in (at least with all newer version of Windows and Mac OS according to Logitech). I'm using Windows 10, and it has worked great from the moment I plugged it in.
The size of the mouse is great. I share my computer with my young son, and both of us find the mouse quite comfortable in our small hands. We are both able to reach all the buttons and click them without a struggle.
I'm happy with this mouse over all. I just wish it didn't have the scroll wheel mode button. Otherwise, it is just great and exactly what I was looking for.

I have since placed this mouse in a junk drawer to be used only in case of an emergency. Piece of JUNK!
