Very Pleased.......2007-12-25
Recently purchased this mouse. Very happy so far. Works exactly as discribed. I installed the software from the included disc. Easy installation. So far, the only questionable feature is the battery life. The mouse I was using before this one would use 2 AAA batteries every 2 to 3 days. Looking forward to the single AA battery in this mouse lasting the 6 months as promoted. I don't think it will, but I'm already ahead of the game. Only thing this mouse needs is a on/off switch. Using my laptop as a desktop requires disconnecting the USB device and inserting it at the bottom of the mouse to turn it off. Not convenient at all. Instead, I've been just popping the battery out. On/off switch would definitely be more convenient. At first I just left it on and that battery only lasted less than a week. Even popping the battery out when not in use I can't see it making it anywhere close to 6 months. If it lasts 2 weeks, I'll be happy!
Overall however, I'm enjoying all the features on this mouse and at the price I paid I couldn't of done better. I do recommend it! It's fun to use.

Love this little mouse.......2007-12-22
Best mouse I have ever used. I work in IT and use this mouse for 7-10+ hours/day. I am buying another one for use at home. Has good range so it works on desktops as well as laptops.
- Love smoothness and quickness in both pointer and scrolling. Can be set very sensitive, which I prefer.
- Wheel does not "click" when you roll it - very smooth. What a relief! Always found those wheel clicks grating and annoying.
- Magnifier is sometimes very handy, although you have to install the software to make it work.
Plug and play.......2007-12-18
Plug & Play; no bothering with installing software and so on. Works great on a mouse pad.
awesome customer service.......2007-12-17
Got this mouse as a X-mas gift last year and have been really happy with it. But with so much use, the usb connection eventually ate it about a month ago. I emailed customer service and within 48 hours a rep replied requesting an address to send a replacement. Within a week I had a new mouse. As much as it pains me to give kudos to Microsoft, it may be the most hassle-free customer service interaction I've had this year. I would definitely buy this mouse again just for the service experience.
MS Notebook Optical Mouse 4000 works!.......2007-12-04
This MS Notebook Optical Mouse 4000 is a welcome unit because it is hard for me to get used to the laptop's touch pad. We use this mouse all the time.
I discovered that the laptop would not go into screen-saver mode whenever the wireless mouse is attached. So I just remove it to prevent screen burn-in when running a long app.

So great, I'm buying it again!.......2007-07-02
I love this mouse; I'll state out-right that I'm biased. I've had it for about a year now, with semi-constant use. I never have problems with the signal, or the smoothness. This is a great mouse. It's compact, the easy snap thing is very lovely, and the battery life is great.
The only reason I'm rebuying it is due to a little accident my laptop had with gravity. Broke the USB plug, and I cried. Yes, I did, tears and all. Anyhow. I went to Best Buy to get a new one, and AHHH! I can't stand it. It moves so clunky and it just... isn't my little 4000.
Anyhow. I love this mouse.
<3 Easy, lovely, and smooth.
worst mouse ever.......2007-03-22
I've had several wireless mice in the past, and this one by far is worst of the lot. My greatest issue is with the left mouse working intermittently. It literally took me several clicks on the same button or link to do anything. Basically you have no idea if your left click is going to work or does nothing, so you end up clicking several times to see something happen. Would not recommend this to anyone despite the low price.
dont buy this mouse.......2007-03-03
First of all, it is a lot smaller than a normal mouse as it is advertised. Also, the software for the magnifier will not install on Windows Vista (I find this ironic because it is a Windows mouse). Occasionally, it will stop working all together and you have to remove the usb and a few times. I would say spend the extra money to get a good optical, wireless mouse.
Software incompatible with some video drivers.......2007-01-10
Once I got everything set up properly, the mouse has worked been great. I downrated it, because I had problems with incompatibilities between versions 6.01 (came with the mouse) and 6.1 of the Microsoft Intellimouse software and the driver for my video card, an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400. This causes flickering in the active window (not the whole screen). According to results of web searches I did, there are other video drivers that conflict with versions 5.5 and up, but some do not. I have borrowed machines with NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 and GeForce FX Go5200 - they work fine with versions 6.01 and 6.1. If I turn off the Intellimouse software on my system or use version 5.0, there is no flicker, but the horizontal scroll and magnify do not work. Finally, I tried version 5.3 that I borrowed from a friend and it makes the mouse work as promised and does not cause the flicker. Unfortunately, I don't know how others can get this version, since the Microsoft site has version 6.1. I have notified both Dell and Microsoft of this problem.
Best mouse I've ever had.......2006-10-18
I originally purchased the 3000 model and it became my favorite mouse ever. Everything was perfect: the size, weight, balance, click action, instantly worked on any computer I plugged it into, very responsive and accurate, and I never did run down the original battery despite 16 hours/day of use for 2 1/2 months.
Eventually my girlfriend borrowed it, fell in love with it, and swiped it, so I bought this new 4000 model to replace it, and it is even better.
It has the same excellence in design, feel, and use as the 3000. The major improvement is the changed middle scroll button which now scrolls faster if turned faster and is instantly responsive. The required force to spin it is just right, in my opinion.
Also it adds horizontal scrolling ability and a very cool side button that by default turns on and off a special magnification window which is intuitively resized and adjusted. It is really slick.
The IntelliPoint software lets you customize the action of all the buttons, and you will probably want to change the default setting for the middle mouse button, which by default is to swith to the next open application rather than function as a normal middle mouse click. If you use a tabbed browser you'll notice this really quick! It is easily changed though. And you can use the side button for the magnification thing or any of about 25 other useful things.
Microsoft makes fantastic hardware, and this is a premium example. If this is not the best mouse on the market, it is at least the best notebook mouse.
