Microsoft Cordless Wheel Mouse

I've always had a lot of faith in Microsoft products and usually for good reasons - they ARE good. So when I wanted to replace my mouse I didn't think too long about which one to get (yes you guessed it). The added bonus with this mouse is the fact that it's cordless. I was very unsure about just how well a cordless mouse would work and I'm pleased to say that it's extremely good. You get the usual excellent Microsoft build quality, and a central wheel for essential quick page movement or weapon selection in first person shooters. The buttons respond well, the wheel is precise and the on-screen movement is very good (although not ...  Read the complete review

Im not a huge user of our computer at home or this one at work as im a nanny. I have to help the children with their computer though so I do have some contact with the mouse. We have one of these mice at home and I wish we had one at work. Reason being is that the child that uses it at work is Left handed. She always has the mouse on the Left of the keyboard.

The mouse itself is about twice the size of a normal mouse and is not that comfortable to use (well it wasn’t for me, although I do suffer from Rheumatoid Arthritis in the hand and wrist – no sniggering at the back, it was brought on by an ...  Read the complete review

These are pretty cheap at the moment, it seems MS are pushing their intellieye stuff much harder right now. These are separately powered cordless mice, you can use it pretty much anywhere you like as long as youre within a certain distace from the PC. Sometimes the mouse is not as responsive as a normal mouse, but perhaps thats because I am spoiled by MS' amazingly good Intellimouse explorer. If only they could do a cordless version of that! The ergonomics of this mouse arent that great though the wheel is ever useful. I recommend this mouse to anyone who has little room at their desk or moves around a fair ...  Read the complete review
