I've used both MS and Logitech mice before, very different feels, at home i had a basic MS optical mouse which i was fairly satisfied with, but ive also used a friend's Logitech MX518 which does feels even better.

Since i have a laptop i thought i'd replace my mouse with a small wireless one and go for logitech this time. I got mine before the nano was released.

Its a good mouse overall, not so great for big hands, but its not uncomfortable, and it is a deliberately small laptop mouse in the end.

The scroll wheel has weight to it, and has 2 modes, the traditional "notched" mode where you can feel every bump as you scroll. Then it has a "free-wheel" mode which works better than i expected. You can sort of 'flick' the wheel and it'll roll for up to about 5 seconds on its own, so you can find the top and bottom of a page quickly. But it also gives you quite a lot of control, you can stop the wheel at any time etc

Theres a lot of buttons and to be honest i dont use them, the zoom and horizontal scrolling needs the logitech software installed and i dont like that, the search button brings up Explorer search or google depending on whether you are on windows or a browser. the main buttons feel good quality, they click with a normal sound, only the zoom button feels strange.

the rest of the mouse is fine, i mean it looks great! it feels ok despite my big hands, but i have to admit its hard sometimes to judge where its pointing sometimes because my fingers get lost on it.

The battery is good, ive had it for 4months or so on 1 batt, it takes 1x AA, the little receiver is about the size of a very small USB flash drive, in fact, i wish usb flash drives came in this size and shape! The receiver slots into the mouse and switches the mouse off which is neat, and ejects back out at a touch of a button, making you look flashy. There is also a power button on the bottom of the mouse if you want to do it that way.

As far as performance goes, its pretty quick, not good enough for proper gaming, ive yet to find a wireless mouse that is. But its fine for everything else.
