Grrrrrrrrrr Stuped (expensive) wireless mouse!

I'm massively aggravated. I just had my second MS wireless mouse die in two months.

I had to go back to the old cord one.

Has anyone had good luck with any particular wireless mouse?

Logitech.

I've been using a wireless mouse and keyboard from Logitech since around April and I love it. Very responsive, no lag, etc...

My only complaint is actually the fault of the laptop, sometimes my computer 'loses' the mouse and I have to make my computer find it again.

Yup, logitech. I use a logitech wireless mouse with my laptop and it works as well as any corded mouse I've ever had.

That's odd. Mine is a MS IntelliMouse Explorer 2.0, model 1007. It hasn't given me any trouble. It's been so reliable that I even bring it with me on trips. Good luck.

OK - I have to get a new mouse anyway - I'll get a Logitech..... Any special model?

I use a Logitech G7 Laser Cordless. Had it for over a year now and it has never failed me.

Mine was in a keyboard/mouse combo pack, and I don't have the number. I suspect just about anything from them should suffice though.

Mine's the LX7. I picked it up at Circuit City on sale for about $25.

Always used Logitech for my peripherals. The added bonus with Logitech mouses (mice) is the Smart Move® that automatically moves your pointer over the OK button (or default highlighted option) on option windows and pop ups. As for which one I'd recommend I'd say go to your local Business Depot or Radio Shack and hold all try each model out for fit in your hand. Another option (although I've never tried one myself) is a track ball. Oh and look for laser as ioposed to optic. They are so much nicer and more precise except on a glass covered coffee table.

That's about all the longer I get batteries to work in mine

Don't forget to push that little button on the bottom side of it that turns it back on when you change the batteries
