Targus Rechargeable Bluetooth Laser Notebook Mouse - mouse

Advantages: Small, respsonsive
Disadvantages: Can not be switched off

...I bought this mouse after I was so impressed with my other Trust wireless mouse. I bought this because it would fit into my laptop case. The mouse is small, but is not too small, although I would not like to use it for very long periods of time. It has 2AA batteries which are supplied with the mouse, and they are rechargeable. To recharge the mouse, you plug the USB lead into the Laptop, and the other end into the mouse, and the wheel goes red when it is charging. The battery life is good. On a full charge, it will last for about 3 days of reasonable use. But the only drawback of the mouse is that you can not turn it off. This means that when in you laptop bag, and when it is moving, the mouse thinks that you are moving it, so the battery gets low. There is no software needed when running Windows XP.

Advantages: Simple straight forward remote operation in Powerpoint mode. Built in Laser pointer.
Disadvantages: Restricted functions and speed in Mouse Mode, no mode indicator

The built in laser pointer lets me point out aspects of each slide without standing in the projector beam to wave my hands at the screen. The small and light hand held controller provides 2 button mouse, next slide, last slide and pointer functions. This talks wirelessly to a small receiver that plugs into a USB prort... Read review

Advantages: Laser precision, max grip and rechargiability
Disadvantages: Batterylife, no on-off switch, syncing to the receiver

...So, i bought the Targus AWM14EU mouse about 2 weeks ago. My experience has been good, though the "user interface" is a bit off. The sensitivity is good and I like big mice due to the grip. Also, the main buttons work fine and accurate. But, the scrollwheel is a bit loose and so are the browsing buttons under near your thumb. On the user manual, it states that you should charge the batteries for at least 8 hour for best performance. Do so, because, I charged it for 6 hours and ended up with 2 weeks of battery life. Also, it should have an on-off switch for transportation. And it looses contact to the computer, when you acciadently smash it. But smash it again and it will work , and it lags when you move it. Use at your own desire... Read review
