Summary: Quickly broke; no response from Microsoft
Review: After only a few weeks of use, this mouse began to act strangely: random disconnects, spots of lag, and other odd occurences. Soon after the initial problems it completely broke and stopped working. I tried different kinds of fresh batteries and plugged it into several different PCs to no avail. It hasn't worked since.

An e-mail to Microsoft months ago elicited no response.

Even before it broke, it wasn't that good of a mouse. Don't waste your money.

Summary: The best I've tried
Review: I just received this mouse today, so I have no idea how it will perform over time. However, having used cordless mice before, I am VERY happy with this particular one. It has the exact same shape and feel as the Logitech corded optical mouse that came with my Dell a year ago. It's sleek, and even with two AA batteries, isn't too heavy, as some cordless mice are.

I find it very accurate and very responsive. It performs at least as well as any corded mice I've used over the years. I have the base unit positioned about 18-20 inches away from the mouse itself, and it is NOT in direct line of sight.

You can't beat the price, the shape and feel of the mouse is excellent, and so far the performance is top notch!

Summary: Not a TILT wheel
Review: I purchased, received, and returned this item. It does not have the tilt wheel -- the wheel is scroll only. The info above is false. I informed Amazon of this error a week ago. I was told the page would either be removed, or the description would be corrected. The page today (3-1-04) is the same as it was about a month ago.

If you are looking for a Tilt-Wheel mouse, with a wheel that tilts left and right for side-to-side scrolling, do not buy this mouse.

Amazon or Scamazon?

Summary: Bargain Wireless Mouse
Review: If you need a basic mouse (no extra buttons or features) and you want wireless, then this mouse is a great deal. When I bought it, it was cheaper than the similar Microsoft mouse with a cord. So I bought a couple more. I haven't had it long enough to gauge battery life, so that might be an issue. But so far it works fine. The pointer motion doesn't seem as smooth as my previous corded mouse, but that may be something that's inherent in all cordless mice. I have a Kensington cordless on another machine and it feels the same.

Summary: Great Basic Mouse
Review: The receiver for this mouse is almost as big as the mouse itself and is connected to a long cord, making it pointless for use with a laptop. I wish Amazon had a picture that showed the receiver... if they had, I would not have ordered this mouse.
