Summary: Don't buy
Review: I've also had a lot of trouble with this mouse.
1. The receive range is very short and seems to be blocked by my laptop screen.
2. It doesn't respond sometimes after the computer is restarted.
3. You need to remove the batteries to avoid running them down. It needs an on/off switch.There are much better travel mice out there. I'm going from an optical mouse with a cord for better reliability.

Summary: Works fine for me.
Review: I've been using it for two weeks, on the original batteries.
It took a of practice bit to properly use the touch sensitive 'restart' pads, but now it nicely shuts itself down, and restarts on demand. Maybe those who complain did not read the fine print?
I use the on/off switch only a few times; just let the auto-powersave do its thing.
Yes, it took a few minutes to discover how to open the battery holder; better documentation or a picture would help here.
My main complaint is that occasionally the mouse will spontaneously emit a mouse scroll event, so the page i'm viewing will jump up/down a notch. Other than that, the mouse is responsive and accurate.
As for that annoying blue light: that's why god made duct tape...

Summary: Only worked for a day
Review: Mine worked fine the first day, then my IBM ThinkPad simply did not seem to recognize when I plugged in the receiver to the USB port. The USB port works fine for other things.

Summary: Mouse Failure
Review: Mouse works ok. But every time I turn off my laptop, the mouse stops responding. The only way to restart is to unplug and replug receiver.Targus does not seem interested in resolving.

Summary: Small, simple, but heavy & not perfectly smooth
Review: Targus was one of the first to release the wirelss optical mouse without the huge base to lug around. Kensington has released one recently but it's pricey. I placed my NiMh batteries in here (highly recommended) and it works great so far! It's small and compact but a bit heavier than most mice because of batteries. I wouldn't say movement is perfect, but satisfactory. The scroll wheel is fine. The mouse I had before was Logitech's popular blue optical wheel mouse. Targus's mini optical wireless mouse is great for laptop users but it isn't the smoothest mouse in the world. It's smooth normally but if you leave it alone for a few minutes and pick it up again it has to adjust and gets jerky but goes smooth again. If you find it for less than $ I'd get it.

Summary: Get something else
Review: The concept is great. But, the mouse itself sucks! The battery door is hard to take off and when you do get the door off it doesn't stay close. You have to use a small screw driver to click the plastic battery door in place. Their tech support sucks. They won't admit that the battery door is defective! Get the logitech mouse instead. Also, don't forget to buy a big box of batteries

Summary: don't listen to these competitor's reviews, it's terrific!
Review: This is a fantastic mouse. no problems with the battery door at all, I think it's very solid and well designed considering the tiny size of the mouse. It's comfy to hold, nice finish. Buttons are great feeling, as is the wheel. I like the on-off switch, wish my Logitech wireless mouse for my home pc had this feature.
Only negative is that the wheel moves more than one "wheel click amount" for each physcial click, so it scrolls faster and less consistently than it is supposed to. However that's the smallest problem, and only problem I can find.
I'm very happy with this purchase. Nice little carrying pouch as well, and a nice usb extension if needed.

Summary: Good in context of travel
Review: This is not a replacement for all mice. I still use a full size cordless Logitech when I'm at the office. However, for travel and other times it's fine. Some points to note: 1) Range is affected by the screen and other RF shields. I encountered all the symptoms mentioned by other reviewers until I extended the USB cord to allow the receiver 'line of sight' to the mouse. 2) I pull the batteries when not using it - I only travel once every 2 weeks so this is probably not as inconvenient as it sounds. 3) Overall feel, buttons etc. are fine considering what it is.

Summary: Low quality (inaccurate) and not designed for travel
Review: This mouse has poor accuracy and short battery duration. Sometimes it works fine, but most of the time the tracking is inaccurate, worst than a pad track. Also, throwing the mouse in a bag makes it transmit continuously (buttons pressed), and the batteries run empty soon (few days). I'd return it, but I let more than 30 days pass. I recommend you look for another solution. Finally, the transmitter sticks out of the USB port, and this makes it likely to break.

Summary: This is great
Review: This thing is so cool. You don't need messy wires and you can do it from a long way off. Very nice if you want to annoy people by clicking on everything while they are trying to work. A must buy.
