1 Great Laptop Mouse, but...
I love this mouse, and I use about 6 days a week for anywhere from 2 - 6 hours and it has worked great without any flaws for about 9 months until it stopped working on me yesterday. I guess I should've expected this because of all the use I put it through, but it just stinks to have to spend money on a new one.
This is why I'm giving it only 4 stars.
Anyway, lets focus on the positive. This is, I think, the best laptop mouse on the market. I love that it wraps up, and you don't have to worry that the cord is going to get tangled in the other stuff you have in your bag. It's also the right size. Not too small, but small enough to pack away. This mouse makes it so much easier to navigate your laptop. Nevertheless, if you use it as much as I do, be prepared to replace it in about 9 - 12 months.
2 Great Mouse
I recently ordered this mouse and just got it today (my long term outlook on the mouse isn't good yet, just so you know). I have to say, however, that having this mouse just a few hours is a very good thing.
I got this mouse for my laptop so I wouldn't have to use the touchpad anymore. My laptop has Linux on it (I'm a rebel) and this mouse worked absolutely great for it after just plugging it in, no drivers needed at all. It responds well on practically any surface, except glass which is understandable but annoying since my desk is made of glass. However, since I got this mouse for the road, it will work good for me.
My only complaint is that the mouse wheel does not work out of the box on Linux. Note, I did not say Windows, since I'm sure it would work for Windows fine. If you are a Linux junkie of sorts and need a good mini-mouse, get this if you are a cheap person like me. I am sure there is a driver for this mouse for Linux to enable the scroll wheel but I will have to search, which I haven't had a chance to do yet.
3 Great mouse in a small package
I was torn between getting this mouse and the targus travel mouse. In the end I choose this one because people were having trouble with the zip line that the cord wraps around on the targus.
This mouse has worked very well so far. The construction feels solid even though the mouse is very light. I've had no accuracy problems, though I do miss the side thumb button which is on my larger mice. Wrapping the cord takes about 5-10 seconds and at first you have to wrap quite tightly to get it to snap into place but it gets easier with time (I guess the cord streches a bit). The cord doesn't show any wear and I expect a long of use from this. Excellent product.
4 Awesome, and smart
This is the perfect mouse for a notebook computer on the go, or even at home. First it's not wireless, so you never have to worry about batteries dying. Second the cord has a place to wrap around the mouse (where you can't see it), and the usb part pops into the bottom, making sure the cord is never a hassel during traveling. I can't believe there are not more mouses with this feature. Third it's not ultra small, but just right for travel and hand comfort.
The only thing that keep me from giving it five stars is two things. First no back button, or in other words a third button. The back button saves so much times while browsing the web, i can't believe they don't have it on here. Third, when I bought it, I thought it automatically retracked, like a measuring tape, I was a little disappointed, but i'm sure they'll make something like that in the future.
But right now I think it's the best you can get.
5 Great mouse!!!
Three months ago when my regular mouse stopped working, I decided to buy this mouse. It was a very good and inexpensive investment. This mouse works wonderfully and makes it very easy to navigate pages. Recommend!
6 One of my best investments
The Logitech Notebook Optical Mouse Plus has perhaps been one of the best (cheap) investments I've made. It's smooth and accurate, and, most importantly, fits well in my hand. It has been so reliable and so efficient that I doubt I'll be buying another mouse for quite a while to come.
7 Great travelling mouse
The cord management function on this mouse has got to be the best of its features. You can wind the cord around the base of the mouse, and the USB plug clicks into position on the underside, protecting the optical sensor. I'm using the mouse with Mac OS10.3 on an iBook, and both the right-click button and scroller work exactly as they should. There's no thumb-click button, but frankly, that's not the most useful feature anyway on a notebook-sized mouse. There's nowhere comfortable to put the button on a mouse this small, and it would end up being more in the way than anything else, as I have found on other models.
This mouse is also visually pleasing - a sort of greyish-silver metallic color on the top surface where your palm rests, with a tasteful greyish-blue imprint of the Logitech logo, and black all around the sides. If you haven't used a notebook-sized mouse before, the size takes some getting used to, but the particular rounded design of this mouse makes it a comfortable fit in the palm. Also - I ordered this mouse on a Friday afternoon with supersaver shipping, and I received it by the following Monday afternoon! Great value for the price all around.
