    • Good: - the USB fitting in the mouse is awesome design
      - The feel of the moulding is presently unrivalled by a portable
      - 'nuff said
    • Bad: -If your poor you probably dont have the net, and therefore, are not reading this

    Really good tech mouse, feel good purchase.
    I'll save you some money if you don't know already, -ebay, from aussie sellers - i bought 2, one cost me $69 the other $79, shipped!
    I know because i bought mine from david jones city for $129.
    Then my sister told me she wanted one, and so the after having a look herself the girlfriend wanted one too.
    I went to ebay and found them too easy. Hope this makes it a little easier.
    (yes, this mouse is good)

    • Good: Perfect Grip, Button Locations, Effortless Cruise, Insane Scroll Speed, Battery Indicator
    • Bad: Very Pricey.

    The best mouse I ever used and the price justifies it. Effortless Scrolling, Cruising, Button Size, Location and everything.

    • Good: Portability, comfort, wireless. Buttons can be programmed.
    • Bad: Zoom button is not very comfortable. Still needs work.

    This is the best mouse I have purchased from Logitech. Unlike other notebook mice, this one is a good size. The wireless capability ability to store the USB dongle is a god send make packing great. I've had problems with wireless connections using Logitech, but this one is much better. I'm not a big fan of the zoom feature; too much force is required to push it so it is not very comfortable. This mouse is pricier than most, but you often pay for what you get. I have no buyers regret purchasing this mouse and highly recommend it for those who use it for general use. Not sure how it would fair for the absolutely retentive. Battery life should be about 4 months, but I've only owned it for 1 week.

    • Good: -
    • Bad: -

    Impossible to set up to a dell computer. USB drives does not work. Help files does not provide solutions. Instructions are bad - i.e. no overview over all buttons.

    • Good: Great feel, but what good is it if it works so poorly? Zoom button very handy. Wireless is a very nice feature.
    • Bad: Unpredictable movement & lack of precision in certain programs. Difficult to setup. WAY to many adjustable features. Terrible user manual Doesn't work well in Photoshop. Expensive. Left click not precise (click fails to register at times).

    Horrible mouse. Try using it in Photoshop and you will want to throw it through the window. It slows down the pointer speed when you hold down the left button....WHY??? Way too many adjustments. I have $10 mice that work many times better than the Logitech and take less than a minute to setup.

    • Good: Very comfortable to grip.
      Works for my Mac at home and PC in office.
      Storable receiver.............. wont lose it.
    • Bad: 800 dpi not changable

    The best laptop mouse available so far

    It works flawlessly. I like to put it into my bag and use it both at home and in office. But not a good idea to use it as a gaming mouse in cyber cafe, coz its 800dpi speed cannot be upgraded into 2000dpi. So although it's a perfect office mouse, it's merely a close-to-perfect one if you need an all-rounder. Nevertheless I love it very much, indeed.

    • Good: -Ergonomics
      -Receiver fits in mouse
      -Many programmable keys
      -Unique Scroll-Wheel
    • Bad: -Price

    Perfect for School

    I just bought this mouse today for my notebook. It is perfect for university because it packs up quickly, sets up quickly and works flawlessly. The scroll-wheel allows me to scroll through long documents with ease and the feel of the mouse makes it comfortable to surf the internet. This mouse has such a comfortable feel to it that it's fun just to scroll through a page.
