Advantages: wireless, accurate, comfortable, and durable Disadvantages: doesnt like super super fine work, gets tacky quite quickly
Balls are back! and there is far less hand gymnastics required with this excellent mouse without a tail!
I bought this device about 3 months ago and will never look back! it has served me well and will continue to serve me well for the foreseeable future...
when i first recieved this mouse, it was packaged well and came with a nice user friendly set up, drivers and sofware... it did take me a few hours to get used to not moving my hand all about the place, and for a split second was getting confused as to why the cursor wasnt moving when i moved the mouse! but it didnt take long to get used to it at all, and is a lot easier to use than the standard arm flailing of a regular mouse!
as you can see from the picture, the mouse wheel is manipulated by the thumb, which is a brilliant idea, and one of those things that should have been ...
Advantages: Slim and sexy, extra buttons Disadvantages: Mouse a bit plasticky
My somewhat ancient Microsoft Internet keyboard and mouse are starting to get a bit long in the tooth. The mouse's ball has gone a bit strange and the keyboard is looking rather grubby and being wired rather than wireless, sometimes gets caught up as I move it about. It was upgrade time.
The replacement of choice turned out to be the LogitechCordless Desktop 510. The LogitechCordless Desktop S510 consists of three items, the keyboard, mouse and wireless transmitter plus of course the driver CD. OK, four items.
The LogitechCordless S510 keyboard's main selling point is its slim profile - around 1cm and this is why I bought it - it looks really, really sexy. Perhaps I should get my head checked out if I've started to find computer keyboards sexy but you know what I mean...
Anyway, despite this super-thin profile, it still ...
Advantages: keys have a nice feel to them Disadvantages: mouse goes through loads of batteries
My previous keyboards were all wired so not only is this is my first wireless keyboard and mouse set but its also my first logitech keyboard and mouse.
I love how the keys feel when I type and all the shortcut buttons are well located. I did not install the software that came with it as 90% of the shortcuts work without the software (only the Function keys don't), and that's enough for me. However it looks relatively simple to install.
The mouse buttons are acceptable. However, the mouse scroll wheel sounds like a carnival prize wheel. It clatters rather badly but it can be fixed.
Pop off the mouse lid, take out the batteries and unscrew the two two visible screws. Pull the top portion of the mouse case back. It will come lose, but it is still attached by a couple of wires to the base. Turn it 90 degrees so you have access to ...
