I ordered the ms wireless notebook mouse a couple days back, and a shiney new cardboard box was waiting for me today. 

After I open it up, the first thing I notice is there's no CD.  I was a bit surprised to not have a intellipoint CD in the box.  No big deal, I would have probably checked for a newer version anyway.  The mouse is definitely small, but it is a little bigger then I expected.  It's very comfortable though, which easily makes up for its size.  Light too. 

After I put in the included battery, it's time to do the install.  The initial install is a breeze.  I plugged in the USB connector, adjusted it up, and within a few seconds the mouse was working.  I was immediately impressed with the response time, especially since it's on the couch. 

I browsed around for a bit, and decided it was time to try to track down intellipoint.  I'm pretty surprised when the microsoft site does not list the “Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse” as an option in the downloads.  I figure that intllipoint is pretty standard, but was pretty upset to see no windows 2k3 driver.  A bit of searching and all I net out with is some unhappy posts about not being able to install intellipoint or intellitype on 2k3. 

Also of note, this means your bluethooth mice and keyboards won't work with 2k3.  Not something I had really thought about in the past, but something I'll keep in mind for the future. 

In the end, even without intellipoint, this mouse rocks.  It will be even better if it lives up to it's battery claims.
