Update : Microsoft wireless notebook mouse
Just over a month ago, I purchased the new MS wireless notebook mouse. I figured it was time to update the blog with my thoughts.
In a word, this mouse is awesome. I still find it to be very comfortable, and in fact now I wish I had one on every PC I own. My old Logitech and MS wired optical mice just don't feel right anymore. I love the shape and the feel of the mouse.
Performance wise I couldn't be happier either. The response time is very good (much faster then older wireless products I had tried). I like my mouse fast. I set the speed to the top end, and acceleration about 3/4's the way up. Most people that try to use my mouse or trackpoint take have to take a second to get used to it. The amazing part, though, the mouse keeps up. I am yet to even feel like it's lagging behind me, at all. This is also on any surface because I use the mouse on the couch ALOT.
The best part is the battery. I am still using the battery that came with the mouse, the single, included AA battery. And don't think that I use this thing for a couple minutes a day. This battery has lasted through a month of continuous pounding, at least 10 hours a day, sometimes more. I have even forgotten to put the base back in the mouse to “turn it off” a few times over night.
In the end, I have been very happy with the purchase, and would highly suggest this mouse to anyone looking for a wireless mouse. You won't be disappointed.
