Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

...the plunge and bought a Logitech MX1000 Cordless Laser Mouse to go with my Logitech Media Keyboard. I bought it from Ebuyer for £38.37 plus £3.83 Super Saver delivery. The price now is £35.69 plus delivery. They like to drop prices AFTER I buy the items. Anyway, you can also find it in the high street in Dixons, PC World, etc but usually more expensive. I also found it at CCL Online for the Ebuyer haters. The mouse has a non-obtrusive Logitech logo ...
...to a variety of other Logitech products. I fully charged the mouse using the base station on first use. The base station and mouse design are so compatible you can pretty much 'drop' the mouse in position effortlessly. Once charged, plug the mouse into an available USB port or use the 'USB to PS/2' adapter to connect it to your mouse PS/2 port at the back of your computer if you want to save a USB port for something else. Then press the 'Reset' ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

...better. Bring in the Logitech MX1000. Although it was released over a year ago, it's still worth your consideration. Here's why: == Build Quality == I've used the mouse for over a year and class myself as a power user (2-3 hours a day, plus my wife and kids use it). Basically, the mouse gets used - a lot. It's been dropped (I'm clumsy), it's been thrown across the room (massive fight with wife..), it's been in the fridge, been sucked on and put ...
...the MX1000 is that the Logitech software is quite clunky. It runs as a system resource and can be accessed via the system tray. The program takes up about 3 Megs of RAM which feels high for this program. The user interface of the program is all silver and shiny which is good in theory but doesn't really feel right. However, you rarely need to use it and it's a minor gripe. == Price == The Logitech MX1000 was expensive when it first came out costing ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

I'd heard of Logitech products about this time last year when I purchased my very first computer, to me they appeard to have some interesting products such as speaker systems for PC use etc but that sort of thing didn't appeal. Neither did the need to change my prehistoric mouse. It wasn't until I used an optical mouse at work that I thought maybe an upgrade could be worthwhile,so I purchased an optical mouse by Microsoft which plugged into a spare ...
...advised caution but said that Logitech do a good range. So off I strolled round town looking for a Logitech Mouse. Nothing available of course. But a gander at the Logitech website revealed the MX1000 or MX Laser as it is sometimes known. The spec looked impressive: 20x more accurate than a standard Optical Mouse, Bluetooth Connectivity ( a means wherby your mouse controls your computer wirelessly via radiowaves), Lithium Ion battery, State of ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

...forget all that with the Logitech MX 1000 laser mouse.The movement is as smooth as a corded mouse,although I have to say the mouse I had before this was a Logitech corded mouse and the MX1000 is smoother than that.The MX1000 has fast RF transmission,what this means is there is none of the drawbacks that are associated with cordless mice such as mouse lag. The mouse has a litium ion rechargeable battery that Logitech says will never need replaced,also ...
...normal corded mouse,its as responsive if not more than a lot of corded mice,this mouse is suitable whatever you do,I must admit I was a bit worried at first because they are some cordless mice that are terrably slow unresponsive etc but the Logitech MX 1000 is most definately not. ...

...Mice (cue fanfare). -The Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse- The Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless mouse uses a laser rather than conventional light. You don't gt the funky red light effect but what you do get is massively improved performance. logitech reckon that the laser technology gives twenty times better sensitivity than an optical mouse. When used the mouse certainly seems to react better than an optical mouse and doenn't seem to miss ...

The increased sensitivity also means that you can happily use the mouse on pretty much any surface, even polished or wood grain surfaces which can often cause problems for optical mice. -Other Features- The main benefit of this mouse is it's accuracy, however there are a number of other useful features. Firstly it is cordless. This makes using ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

When my trusty old MS optical corded mouse went to the great recycle-bin in the sky, I took the opportunity to go wireless. When you are looking for a mouse, you require: Accuracy - the laser used in the MX1000 is 20 times more accurate than standard optical mouse sensors. This is obviously a great improvement but if you are unsure what this means in actual benefits, I can confirm the mouse is very accurate at tracking small movements. The immense ...
...as a mousemat - your desk, a hand, a wall, even featureless white surfaces. Buttons - manufacturers tend to go with the "more is merrier" idea and you end up with a myriad of useless buttons, however this mouse is very nicely designed, and everything is at a fingertip without getting in the way. The two main buttons are quite stylish as they aren't seperate buttons but you press the actual case of the mouse to click - very nice. The scroll button ...

...also be achieved with the Logitech as well. Programming the button in the software is easy on both mice and should produce no problems to anyone who is capable of using the programs that would benefit from them. Because both mice are wireless, they need synchronising with their base units which in turn are connected to the computer via USB cable. Because the Logitech has its own little neat cradle, the synch button is just below where the mouse ...
...much less 'receptive' than its Logitech counterpart. If you have anything in between the receiver and the mouse (or keyboard) the Microsoft unit will not pick up the signal. Reception is my biggest gripe with the MS product. The Logitech cleverly uses lithium batteries to prolong its working life and charges it self up whenever it is replaced in the cradle. The microsoft mouse is powered by normal batteries and the first thing you know about them ...

...is what I got, a Logitech MX 1000. First impressions and I thought I'd be controlling nothing short of a star ship. I have been using the mouse for high end 3D graphics and illustration work with a top spec PC. Once out of the box and into the dock for a quick charge the mouse looks impressive, commanding and very aesthetically appealing on your desktop. The smooth grey and black finish with the light silver buttons are very alluring. In regards ...
...only if you're right handed. The height of the mouse in the middle of the unit is a lot higher than other mice I have used and this can take a little getting used to. You might even find a little ache at the back on the top of your hand, or changed hand movement because of the angle of the mouse. If you're used to a wired mouse, like me, then the first thing you will probably notice (after the fact that there aren't any wires) is the increase in ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

...do different things using the logitech configuration software which comes with the package. It can also be downloaded from the internet. This software also lets you encrypt the wireless connection between the mouse and computer to prevent security implications. The instruction manual that comes with the package is rather brief but the online guide makes up for this far greatly. May I also say the packaging that you get the mouse in looks very cool ...
...When it comes to ease of use, the mouse is rather bulky and feels slighlty weird when you first use it. However, I think this is because it feels so much mor comfortable than other mouses grooving into the contours of your hand. This may take a little while to get use to though. Value for money... the price is a little on the steep side but you do get your moneys worth. There are also new models out now that may be much more worth it if your thinking ...

...handed). Also unlike my last logitech wireless I find that the pads underneath have not been brushed away despite having used this mouse for over a year now. It comes with a cradle receiver which doubles up as a recharger so no need to worry about batteries and generally can last about a week between each recharge which is extremely good for me because I'm a very heavy user(around 6 or 7 hours daily). One thing I would like to say is that the manual ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

I bought this mouse for almost 2 years ago and I'm still impressed with it. It is quite big, but it doesn't really matter. The important thing is that it fits the hand perfectly. The ergonomic design has always been Logitechs good side and this time they did another masterpiece. I can sit hours with the mouse without beign tired or discomforted. From the technical side it is extremely accurate. I know, laser IS accurate, but I still had to say it. ...

Instead of changing the batteries all the time I simply put it on (look at the picture), and in a few hours it is completely recharged and ready for another 50 hours of work. It is also very multifunctional. The wheel goes in four directions and there are also two buttons for fast jumping around in the document or website or whatever it is. Besides there are 3 buttons at ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

Getting negatives out the way first, I found that using the software that comes with the mouse slowed down my PC much more than I found acceptable so removed it. The mouse works perfectly well like this but prevents programming all the available buttons which is a bit of a shame but that wasn't why I bought it anyway. (Only an issue if you use demanding software like games) The mouse doesn't work on my nice new glass computer desk which was annoying ...
...to do the same, I did also find it wasn't too good on a shiny plastic topped mouse mat either so use a material topped one if you are going to use a mat. The warning that pops up to say the mouse is running low on battery is a great idea but if you are mid gaming it can force the game to minimise leaving you powerless and a bit stroppy if you were doing well up to then. Recommend that gamers keep an eye on the handy battery life meter lights and ...

Okay thats the features now my opinion, im right handed and this is ergonomically designed for right handed users and when its not there it feels like i have no hand.

There are never any issues involving me having to press reset button, colour is great, feels ...

Review of Logitech Mx 1000 Laser Cordless Mouse

The Logitech MX1000 Laser cordless mouse uses a laser to detect the movement on most surfaces, regardless of how flat or soft the surface may be. I bought this mouse almost two years ago and the lithium ion battery can still lasts approximately 45 hours of continuous use, until it needs to return to the cradle, for a 5 hour charge. The range of this mouse is quite impressive. You can still get a responsive action approximately 10m (30ft) away. ...

It is a perfect companion for your system, because you can use it for graphic design, gaming and normal daily use as well. Combined with a Razer Exactmat ...
