Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 - Winter Blue
Customer Review: Much better than using a touchpad
Summary: 4 Stars
I just bought a new HP laptop computer. (The core duo is a whole lot faster than the old 500 MHz PII in my old Dell!) The reason I purchased this mouse is that with the new laptop, even at the fastest mouse setting, I have to slide my finger back and forth over the touchpad several times to get the pointer from one side of the screen to the other. (It has a wide screen monitor.) So, I decided to get this wireless notebook optical mouse. This is my third wireless optical mouse, one from Logitech which I use on my "office" computer and one which is part of a Microsoft Wireless Desktop which I use on the computer attached to my home theater system.
On the good side:
1. Microsoft represents that the battery will last for six months. This is a great selling point for a mouse which travels with a notebook 'puter. The battery in my other M/S mouse does last forever, so I do not doubt that this one will last.
2. The receiver which attaches to a USB port is small, only about 2" long, has a nice green light to tell you it is plugged in correctly. It can be plugged in the front USB port on my desktop when the Logitech is charging in its base.
3. The USB connector fits snugly on the bottom of the mouse for storage and traveling, and turns off the mouse when in its holder, saving power and battery life.
4. The mouse is small and fairly light, so it is easy to carry around and stow in a laptop case.
5. There was no need to load drivers. Windows XP simply found the "human interface device" and away we went.
On the negative side:
1. It is small and light. It takes a bit of getting used to because it does not fit comfortably in the palm of my hand.
2. The cursor speed is significantly higher than any of the other pointer devices I have. This can be annoying, particularly with the laptop. There are times when I need to use the touchpad to control the cursor. This means adjusting the mouse speed from the control pannel every time you switch between the touchpad and the mouse.
Like all MicroSoft mouse devices, it appears to be solidly built, and its small size is appropriate to the purpose for which it was made .. as a portable mouse for use with a portable computer. It does what I need it to do and I do not regret spending the $30.
