Summary: Doesn't work while recharging
Review: I liked the idea of the wireless mouse with rechargable batteries (Logitech MX700); I hate using the fingerpad. I do encounter the sync/initialization problem on occasion, though sometimes it comes up working. This mouse has another serious flaw besides the sync problem: The mouse is unusable while it is being recharged. The mouse is recharged by hooking a power wire up to the USB port of the laptop. To charge the mouse, the laptop must be on and the mouse doesn't work while it is recharging so the port is wasted. Seems to me a better design would have allowed the mouse to be used as a corded mouse while it was charging.

Summary: LOve It!
Review: I love my mouse. I don't use it with a laptop, but with a desk model.
You can use it fine while it recharges.. no problem. The rechargeable batteries last along time between needing to be recharged and I usually do it overnite while sleeping. You have to put your 'puter on standby to do the recharge.
You know when the batteries need to be recharged when the mouse cursor starts to move irratically or behind your hand movements. Love the way I just plug in the recharge cord and its done! Great little mouse. Feels comfy and moves smooth.
I am getting one for my husband for his desktop model for Christmas.

Summary: Works Intermittently - Virtually No Good Docs -
Review: I'm taking mine back. It feels pretty good and has a nice case, but stops communicating with the receiver frequently. When the computer starts up it doesn't recognize the mouse. There is a button at the bottom of the mouse which must be pushed to get the USB adapter to recognize the mouse. The button is too small to press by hand. So, MUST have a pen or pencil to push it EVERY time you start up your laptop. A real pain! You also have to push the button within a reasonable time on the USB adapter. Why should you have to do any button pushing at all. Poor design results in a less that useful product. Pay a little more and get a better wireless laptop mouse.

Summary: portable but a pain
Review: If function is more important to you than size or portability, I recommend passing on this one. I've tried it on 2 laptops and 2 desktops. I recommend the Kensington 72114 Optical Pocketmouse instead for laptops or people with small hands.Pro's;
The mouse is nice and small, easy to hold and a breeze to install.
Batteries (included) last a long time.
Easy recharging. Con's:
Working distance is only about 2 feet max.
Stops communicating with the receiver frequently.
Caused system freezes.
Buttons are stiff.
Mouse doesn't always shut off when not in use.
No off button, you have to remove batteries while transporting.
USB plug on receiver is larger than usual and required an adapter extension for 2 of my computers.

Summary: Pretty good deal
Review: This is a nice, comfortable mouse. It comes with rechargeable batteries and has the convenience of a USB cable for recharging the batteries. The mouse fits well in your hand and operates smoothly. Like most optical mice, it lacks an on-off switch to shut off the mouse when it is in your laptop bag; therefore, it tends to drain through the battery pretty quickly and requires a recharge (recommended 8 hours!) about every 3 days (I use my mouse about 14 hours/day). You can use standard AAA batteries in it, although I haven't tried this to see how long they last compared to the rechargable batteries. The USB receiver is large, but has a (flimsy) hinge in it to give it some flexibility to prevent breakage ... the receiver does come across as feeling a little on the cheap side, though. It's definitely small and convenient to carry around, but not so small that it is unusable. All in all, it's not the greatest mouse, but I haven't found a better wireless, optical tavel mouse on the market yet.

Summary: Poor recharging base
Review: Well, this mouse didn't last long at my house. First, you have to charge the mouse for 8 hours before first use. Ok, I hooked that up. It worked for about 5 minutes before the green light (indicating that it is charging) starting flashing. Turns out the charger is broken. One of the contacts stopped making contact. Ok, this mouse is going back to the store. It is a standard sized mouse. The buttons seem ok, but since it never charged up, I can't say much more. Don't buy it.

Summary: Do not buy this Product.
Review: When I turn the computer on I have to intiate the mouse, push and hold the button on the USB Connector. Then I have to turn the mouse over and do the same (You need a sharp object since the button is small and recessed). This also has to be done when the computer goes to sleep. It is much easier to use the touch pad. I am returning the item, even though I will have to pay shipping.
