 Poor construction overshadows good designNov 13, 2009
This mouse comes with great software. Highly customizable for your programs.
The radio reception is great even across the room.
However, the mouse buttons are poorly designed. It makes the mouse so frustrating to use I would caution anyone against buying it.
 Great buyOct 27, 2009
I searched extensively for a wireless mouse before zeroing in on this one. This is an awesome buy at an affordable price. Works great even at a distance from the laptop and has a good ergonnomic design in its category. The size of the mouse helps me grip it better. I can rest my hand on the mouse without the fear of pressing any of the buttons. The only small glitch I feel is the weight. It would have been even better if the mouse was a little more light. Irrespective I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-performing wireless mouse with good ergonomics.
AwesomeOct 23, 2009
Hands down the best and most comfortable mouse I've ever used. I scoffed at paying so much for such a common piece of equipment, but regretted my decision when I bought a cheap piece of crap.
This mouse is frickin amazing. Worth every penny. I've since bought several others for my other desktop and laptop computers. Things sick.
One question: Do your hands actually get smaller when using a laptop?Sep 29, 2009
(A month after posting this, I came back to knock off another star, and found I couldn't. The reason? The mouse has a very short range. My nearest USB socket is on the left side of my 24" monitor. I quickly found that not every mouse-click was getting through. With a brand-new AA battery (1.56 volts), I was losing ~10% of clicks. Doesn't seem like so much, but it quickly becomes annoying. With an older-but-still-good battery (1.52 volts), the mouse becomes unusable. My ugly-as-sin solution mounts the USB receiver on the end of a USB extension cord and positions it centre front of the monitor. This completely solves the problem and extends the usable battery life.)
The difference in size between this mouse and its similarly-priced full-sized equivalent, is 0.75" in length, only. The difference in weight is 1.25 oz. I know because I got this one accidentally packed in the wrong packaging, so I measured: I was hoping to pair this with my wonderful Logitech MX 610 Left-Hand Laser Cordless Mouse and run left and right-handed mice simultaneously again. I'm a sinister man (literally: left-handed) but I can and do use a right-handed mouse almost as often. My right-handed MX 610 broke, and this was cheaper and is more capable.)
The difference in usability, for this big-handed man, is almost total, hence the question in the title.
When I get the full-size replacement, and have it for a while, I'll post a full review. In the meantime, here are instructions on how to hook up two mice simultaneously to one computer. (Oh, I know they're technically rather daunting (especially #3) but here they are, in full :-)
1) Get two Logitech wireless mice, one left-handed and one right-handed.
2) Insert the wireless receiver for one of them into a (preferably) line-of-sight USB port (having one on your monitor is perfect)
3) Put batteries in both of the mice. This is important.
4) If one or the other lights up but doesn't move the mouse, press the "connect" button on the underside.
4) (optional) Also install the SetPoint software that is supplied: it does provide some customization advantages.
Is all. No of course you don't get two cursors! But life definitely becomes easier, especially if you work at your computer all day, or are like me and often have cheery, dexterous (literally: right-handed) work-mates who sit down at my computer and immediately get utterly confused. (They invariably refuse to use their left hand, decline my offer to switch the mouse to right-handed, and then reach across and try to use it with their right hand. Then quickly get annoyed with me.)
Just what I needed.Sep 12, 2009
I spent hours looking for the perfect laptop mouse before I settled on this product. I have no doubt I made the right choice. I needed customizable thumb buttons and mobility, and this mouse delivered. It even fits my large hands.
You can't go wrong with Logitech, and you can't go wrong with this mouse.
