Mice, Trackballs & Pointing Devices

Good for travelling but not the best feeling mouse by a long way

Advantages: Compact, accuracte tracking, long range
Disadvantages: Buttons harder to click than usual - can lead to strain

This is a good mouse, but I have found it to have some drawbacks too. Here are the main features: Nano-receiver: This is excellent. It is stored easily inside the mouse when you need to move it around and is very small on the computer too. The range is also very impressive. Battery-life: This is average to good for a cordless mouse and runs off 2xAA batteries. They can be expected to last at least 6 months on average use. Laserpointer: Very good ...
...as good as even a mid-range corded mouse. Buttons: Not as good as I had thought. The 2 main left and right buttons are just a little bit harder to press than my microsoft mouse, and after a few thousand clicks this starts to be noticeable and strain. The middle mouse button, likewise, is a bit hard to click. There are no buttons on the sides of the mouse, but the middle button does have left and right functions. In short: definitely the best cordless ...

Wacom Bamboo - Great For Consumer and Mid Range Market

Advantages: Best on the low level market, great design, great drivers ad features.
Disadvantages: not the cheapest graphics tablet, averagely sized active zone.

...cheaper choices because i know wacom is a company i can trust, them being the world leader in graphics tablets. The product works well, although im not very good at using it its features and usage works well not only for drawing but as a complete substitute for a mouse. it will stop RSI and has reduced the pain i got from what i thought was carpal tunnel syndrome, It works very well with windows xp and its drivers integrate with minimal CPU usage. ...
...and in comparison to my wacom the difference is startling. the trust pads pen would eat through AAA batteries like nothing iv ever seen, the pen was bulky and it was in that horrible old computer color, the wacom is well designed, quite ironic considering its used for design. and all of its features work very well. its gloss and matte finish work great together and it is both technically and fashionably sound its pen is also battery free and nibs ...

Logitech V450 Laser Cordless Mouse for Notebooks

Advantages: really small, easily transportable. works on most surfaces, great Battery life
Disadvantages: Hard to open without scissors

...a sale) and made by Logitech I like that make it has never let me down. The thing I like most about it is the size of it its only about 10 centimetres the wireless USB receiver is only about 5 if that. The reason I bought it is because I was getting annoyed at my laptops touch pad as it was really small and you cant drag or highlight things and the fact that im a gamer so I really needed a mouse. This was my first laser mouse as well the other ones ...
...light at the bottoms I think there called optical mouse's. What comes in the box… Well you get a package(the really annoying plastic stuff which you cant open unless you use scissors.) A disc which contains the control panel for the mouse. The mouse its self A small pouch so your mouse can sleep nicely without all the dust. The really small wireless USB receiver 2 AA batteries good for a year apparently A small instruction booklet telling ...

Review of Logitech V450 Laser Cordless Mouse for Notebooks - mouse

Awesome mouse, just be careful the laser does not get dirty.

Advantages: Easy and flexible functionality, looks great, holds a good charge.
Disadvantages: Laser can get dusty easily and require cleaning.

...work as described on the logitech website and have made browsing large websites much easier for me. As a pointing device the MX Revolution is very smooth. The pad on the bottom of the mouse allow for a smooth glide, while the laser is very accurate. Though as pointed out in my title, the laser is tucked away in a little hole that can get a build up of dust or other dirt, which has lead to erratic movement for me several times. You can clean it with ...
