Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000

Strengths: the tiny USB reciever that snaps into the bottom of the mouse when not in used.

Weakness: none so far

I like this mouse. It is my second wireless notebook mouse after kensington.I would never buy kensington mouse again. Does not work very well. This microsoft wireless optical mouse is nice, small, use just one AA battery. The mouse features a L shaped USB RF receiver that snaps to the underside of the mouse when not in use, so you won't have to worry about losing it. Snapping in the tiny receiver...

Nice little mouse

Strengths: Excellent battery life

Weakness: None that I could find

This is an excellent mouse for the price. Not too small and not too big, this mouse feels very comfortable in your hand. There are two different colors available: a slate color and a light blue color. For some reason, the light blue color mouse is $5 bucks more. The battery life is excellent and I've been using it approx. 3 - 4 every day. It needs 1 AA battery and I've been using an Energizer AA...

Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000

Strengths: Price, optical, size. Smooth movement.

Weakness: The USB receiver is a little too big.

Overall, I like the mouse very much. The size is small enouth to carry but not too small to use. Movement is smooth and accurate within 6 feet. Only the USB receiver can be smaller. It is more then twice bigger then my bluetooth dongle.

its good when it works

Strengths: size, shape

Weakness: doesnt work all the time

I'm on an Apple 12" Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz. Maybe its not designed to work with my computer but it does say its compatible with Macs. Anyway, when i plug in the receiver, often times the light wont come on. Pressing the "connect" buttons on the receiver and mouse doesnt seem to do much either. i have to keep plugging it in and unplugging it between my 2 usb ports until the light finally comes on....

Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000

Strengths: Size, battery life, weight, portability, reputable brand, price, the usb snap-on on the bottom is a great feature.

Weakness: Form factor - don't use for more than a few hours at a time. It doesn't fit the hand too well, and probably shouldn't be used for desktop machines that gets daily usage. The USB connector is also big.

Not a bad mouse for it's price. Even though size is nice because it's portable, I wish MS had made it a little bigger so it would fit an adult hand well. It would be perfect for those with smaller hands. I also wish the scroll wheel was a little looser. Otherwise, it's a good product for a decent price.

Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000

Strengths: Great feeling of grip, freedom of codeless. moderate size (not too small, not to big)

Weakness: Somewhat high

At first, I was very satisfied with this mouse; great feeling of grip and freedom of wireless. But, I had some pain on my wrist after using a day. It might be somewhat high for my hand. However, it became comfortable after several days. I love this mouse so much.

Great mouse!

Strengths: Size, good response, works well both on white and black surfaces, good battery life.

Weakness: LED light remain ON even when computer is off, minor interference with decals on the computer.

This is a great mouse - the size is just perfect - the bottom of my palm sits on the desk very nicely when the fingers are on the buttons. I also liked the nifty button for opening the top for battery replacement - very easy. The battery life seems to be great - I have been using it for the last 3 months without a replacement on a single AA battery. I like the way the transmitter stores in the...

Love it!

Strengths: Signal, battery life, programmable scroll wheel

Weakness: none

I've had this mouse for over 2 months. I finally had to replace the provided battery (with average use of 1-2 hours per day). I wish there were a switch instead of having to remove the USB device in order to save battery-life. Otherwise, it's great!
