Logitech VX nano here, it's perfect for my needs and the small USB dongle means you won't really notice it.
Programmable buttons too .

I've got this too... fantastic mouse. Decided i liked the ability to plug it into any pc i wanted (rather than just bluetooth equiped ones) especially with the dongle being so small.

Trouble is, i have read LOTS of bad press about the logitech software so have been a bit nervous to try it? I am currently using steermouse on the trial.

Razer Pro v1.6, its white and works from plug an play just set the buttons in system preferences dont have to install the razer software. And no batteries or charging

Went for this one in the end, couldn't resist the white-ness

I'm sure you said it had to be wireless initially

Has that one only got the 3 buttons? Can't tell with that chavvy blue stripe down the side

How much was it?

wireless preferred.

Didn't have to be, but was preferred, changed my mind

Has 7 buttons and was £29.99 delivered. Not chavvy, you're just jealous

7? Is there anywhere you can put your hand without pressing a button?

And it's extremely chavvy

The Pro-Click is the best mouse I've ever used and it's far from chavvy.

i've just plugged in my ms explorer 3 to try on my mac and its great apart from the scroll wheel, nowehere near as smooth as the mighty mouse

Whats the scroll wheel like on the MS wireless laser 6000, and the razor mentioned above?

What are people 's opinions on bluetooth mice?

Anyone had bad experiences?

Smooth action - no notches. It also does that horizontal panning business.

The white/blue Razer looks tacky IMO. I thought 'Mac fans' would be over neon

I use a microsoft bluetooth mouse on my media centre and its great.

However, on my macbook i went with the logitech vx nano. I chose this as bluetooth mice generally seem to go into a sleep mode when not being used and then when you come to use them it takes a second to wake up and reconnect. This isn't a problem on my media centre but would annoy me on a laptop.

Thats what I wanted to hear, cheers! Want to get something which is comfortable as the mighty mouse is quite bad to use for long periods.

I don't like mice without notchy wheels.. can't beat a good notch imo

Ripper · 12 Jun 2008 at 14:45

Ordered the microsoft for £22. How long do batteries normally last in them?

J1234 · 13 Jun 2008 at 14:25

It came yesterday, 'tis very nice :cool:

syke · 13 Jun 2008 at 14:28

Think this may well be my next mouse, getting sick of sorting the scrollball every day!

I've been using a deathadder with the pro|click drivers for ages

is really nice. (seems to be the same mouse & has the same hardware ID's as the pro|click)

I'm just waiting for razer to release the deathadder mac version so I can use my deathadder from my pc on mac os now
