Good Wireless Mouse.......2007-12-31
Installation was a snap. No problem there. Mouse response is very good. Comfortable to use (even for my big hands). Very precise. I do a lot of graphic design with a pen/tablet, and this mouse rivals that for precision. Very happy so far.
Perfect.......2007-12-31
I bought this mouse along with a cleaning kit off of Amazon for my brother for Christmas.
I was very afraid of paying good money for a mouse that may be too small, and I risked it. It is definately worth the buy. The battery life is fantastic and the size isn't too small, even for man hands. The fact that the USB thing attaches to the bottom while traveling is wonderful.
All in all worth the buy.
Very Iffy.......2007-12-30
After all the hype of the wireless mouse, I decided to figure I'd go for the best known brand. Microsoft. Come to find out, their product, which I paid about thirty dollars for, is cheap. The USB receiver broke and I found myself trying to fiddle with it to get it to work. It's really a waste of time and definitely not a good investment.
What can I say? It works!.......2007-12-29
I've used this plug and play mouse on Windows and Mac machines without fail. The use is as simple as it looks. Without reading the manual, I was able to pop open the top of the mouse, put in a battery, and then plug in the USB dongle. No software needed. I love that the USB dongle clicks into the bottom of the mouse for travel too. Been running on the same battery for 3 months now without fail.
I also have to commend the form factor. Usually, when a mouse isn't designed well it feels strange to hold. This one had it right, with a right-side indentation that allows the ring and pinkie finger (for right-handed users) to fall a little.
I'd highly suggest this product to anyone looking for a simple, easy mouse replacement.
Great mouse for Notebooks!.......2007-12-28
I love the compact size and that you can store the usb dongle in the bottom of the mouse. The only complaint that i have is that i was told that this mouse had the 4-way scrolling option and it DOES NOT! But otherwise I like the mouse a lot. I would recommend this mouse to everyone that has laptop!

Very practical!.......2007-12-31
This was a X-mas gift for my husband. I was a little reluctant to buy it after reading some of the reviews since my husband has big hands. He carries his laptop in a bag and a larger mouse would have been inconvenient and too bulky. The small USB can be left attached permanently to a port and the size of the mouse turned out to be its best asset. After installing and customizing it to his needs, he had absolutely no problem adjusting to navigating with it. This one's a keeper!!!
Best Mouse I've Ever Owned!.......2007-12-29
I bought this mouse for my brother-in-law for Christmas. He loves it. I own two myself, and have had them for several months. I work for a computer software company and spend about 70% of my waking hours on a computer. I have two laptops. I bought one of these for the first laptop and liked it so much I bought anpther one for the second laptop.
Pros:
1. The tiny dongle is GREAT! I travel A LOT. I constantly am packing my laptop up and now I never have to remove a USB attachment to do so. That alone makes it worth every penny.
2. Compact design isn't as bulky as other mice I have had.
3. Runs on a single AAA battery that after 4 months of constant use has not needed replacing.
4. Has a power switch to conserve that battery.
5. Has a double optical sensor that reacts perfectly. This mouse works on every surface I put it on. Past optical mice have had issues on certain shiny surfaces, but this one seems to handle everything just fine so far.
6. The scroll wheel has two settings, a clicking spin and a free spin. The free spin zips right through long web pages and huge documents.
Cons:
1. None that I have noticed yet, and by now I should have.
Maybe someone could gripe about the price, but there are more expensive mice on the market that I have tried and not liked. And again, the small dongle is such a huge convenience for someone that travels that I would pay more for this mouse if I had to.
I can't imagine anyone not loving this mouse.
Great little mouse.......2007-12-29
Logitech strikes a good balance of form and function - I found the mouse a little small for my hand at first, but I reminded myself that its that way for a reason and I've adjusted! Love the free scroll wheel (for quickly getting thru a deep email inbox) and the ability to scroll horizontally - I work in IT and frequently review large visio diagrams, its awsome for that.
Amazing reciver, OK mouse.......2007-12-27
I would like to preface this with saying the reason I bought this mouse was because of the size of the receiver. In that regard, it succeeds quite well. The receiver is small and unobtrusive, but for $55 it better be.
That being said, I have two major problems with this mouse: The scroll wheel and the navigation buttons. The former is sloppy and does not contain a middle click. Instead, clicking the scroll wheel will change it from smooth scroll to ratched, which is neat. However, for anyone who uses tabbed browsing, cad programs, photoshop, or many other applications that the use of a middle click is ever so wonderful, then mapping the button just below to scroll wheel to middle click is, needless to say, a must and takes some getting used to.
The navigation buttons are just in a dumb, inconvenient spot.
Mouse size is about what I would expect for a laptop mouse and the side scroll is unobtrusive, which is nice.
Very nice wireless mouse.......2007-12-27
I'm using on a Intel MacBook and it works beautifully. The USB receiver is tiny and can be left connected during transportation. The mouse and scroll wheel have a nice "solid" feel. I programmed the 2 left buttons to enlarge and decrease the display (a nice feature for older eyes). I have come to appreciate the quality of Logitech products (I use several).

Customer Reviews:
Mouse is good but the scroll wheel sucks after a few months.......2007-12-31
Hi everyone, I've been reading many cases of MX/VX Revolution's scroll wheel getting stuck/sticky after a few month's of usage. From what I've read, this is due to the rubber on the wheel getting loose and rubbing against the inside of the mouse - SEEMS LIKE INHERENT PROBLEM WITH THE MOUSE. PLEASE CHECK AT THE LOGITECH FORUMS BEFORE DECIDING ON THIS MOUSE
so compact.......2007-12-29
I was a bit skeptical about this mouse. But It seems to work great and I love the on/off feature. Now I don't have to worry about putting it in it's base every time I get through using it to charge it. It's very comfortable to hold also.
nice.......2007-12-29
Really nice mouse, would have been nicer if it was a rechargable mouse. very comfortable grip as well.
Solid Laptop Mouse.......2007-12-29
I originally bought one in mid 2007 at a local Office Max, not checking its price beforehand, for $80.
Even for that price, this is a great mouse, possibly the best laptop mouse out there right now.
Especially for people with small hands, it's light weight and small size make it ultra-portable for on the go users.
I don't really use the zoom and search features, but one key deciding factor when I bought the first mouse was the side buttons for easy web-surfing - I love the back and forward browser buttons - perfect for lazy surfers like me who hate having to scroll all the way to the upper left of the screen to go back or forward a page!
And one really cool feature is that there is a slot at the bottom end of the mouse to store the USB dongle/receiver - inserting it automatically turns the mouse off to save battery usage - sweet!
And I stated the price in the beginning as a comparison to how much it costs now - about $38 after a $15 rebate from Logitech - that's a steal!
One minor gripe is even though its got a laser sensor and is advertised as being able to work on mirrored or reflective surfaces - not really true, doesn't work for me.
Overall, its price, size, ergonomic and cool design, light weight, and portability make it one awesome mouse!
Logitech Laptop Mouse is Perfect.......2007-12-29
I have now had this mouse for about a year now, the size is great, not as large as a desktop but not your typical laptop mouse, it fits nicely in my hand for hours with no cramping/ fatigue. the battery life is excellent, it takes 1 AA battery. I've changed it 3 times in a year, with Energizer Lithium. The wireless connection is flawless, there is no lag or hesitation, it works great with games too. The forward and reverse thumb buttons are indespensable, I also like the search button and the zoom button is ok too. But I recommend this to anyone who needs a mouse for their laptop. Don't be discouraged by the price as it is well worth it.

grerat purchase.......2007-12-28
This mouse was a wonderful purchase! It is easy to use, small, and very responsive. I love it!!
Cordless Mouse.......2007-12-21
I've been using it for about a month. It installed instantly and has been working flawlessley. The batteries that came with it are still working and I have yet to shut the mouse off by placing the receiver on the bottom of it. Highly recommended.
Cordless mouse.......2007-12-21
The mouse works fine but makes a tinny click that is annoying. My wife now uses it.
Best mouse ever.......2007-12-20
I hope Logitech has the sense to never remove this product. I've been using this mouse for about 3 years now. I've tried many Cord and cordless mouses and this has by far been the best ever. It has the perfect balance between weight and size for me and many hands. Even my colleagues agree, that this model is the best. Smaller gets uncomfortable, lighter gives an uneasy grip etc.
I'll likely keep on bying this model for as long as it is on the market
A fine mouse.......2007-12-18
It works prefectly on my computer; I didn't detect any interference with my very nearby wireless router. But I do keep the mouse close to the USB receiver. A mouse pad is a must; on shiny or not too dull surfaces the mouse doesn't work properly.

Mouse !.......2007-12-26
Bought this mouse a couple of days ago.
Well sensetivity is pretty poor, not realy a gaming mouse.
If ur playing games in which you need precise chrosair, like Counter-Strinke, TF2 etc..u should get something else.
Guality of the mouse is good, its shiny and all that.
My rating would be something like 1.5-3
Simple Design, but great overall feel.......2007-12-23
It's a pretty basic mouse, but it's one of the best I've used. The bluetooth works well and had no issues connecting with my computer. It's well designed and ergonomically comfortable despite seeming a bit small, and I have large hands. Comes with a travel bag that is, again rather basic, but very practical. I usually find laser mice to be oversensitive, but this mouse is well balanced in terms of accuracy and sensitivity. No unique features here, but if you looking for a basic, good quality, stylish, bluetooth mouse for your laptop, or even a desktop, this is it.
Great Mouse!.......2007-12-21
I am using the Logitech V470 with a MacBook Pro and it's awesome. It works really well, and feels solid. The software doesn't take over the machine like some other companies Intellimouse ;) software. I have large hands, but this mouse fits great and is very comfortable. I also run Windows in Parallels and its great on that side of the world.
Awesome mouse!
It works.......2007-12-13
Purchased for iMac as a replacement for the bluetooth Mighty Mouse, since the MM scroll button stops working after a while, and I have to pry it apart to clean it. This is a more than adequate substitution, the wheel tilts to the right or left, allowing horizontal scrolling in Photoshop, etc. This might be hard on larger hands, as it's a small mouse, only 4 inches (10 cm) long and 2.35 inches (5 cm) wide. It is symmetrical, will work easily with either hand. I notice that as it wakes or sleeps, it interrupts the sleep cycle of my computer, something that I wouldn't notice if I chose a later time to sleep my computer. Sleep is not user settable with the software that comes with it. Wakes from reserve quickly. Crisp action.
Great mouse.......2007-12-12
I was a little hesitant about this mouse after reading that it is on the same frequency as my wireless home network, but am glad I decided to try it. I am happy to report after using it for a few weeks now that I have had no noticeable problems using this either at home or at school where there is a wireless network as well. The setup was easy, the mouse works as advertised, and because it is bluetooth I don't need to have a key sticking out of my laptop to use it. I recommend getting yourself 4 rechargeable AA's, one set to use and one to use while charging, so you don't have to keep buying batteries.

Great Bluetooth Mouse.......2007-12-30
I bought this mouse about a month ago for my new laptop. It was very easy to setup and start using. I love the Bluetooth feature since I don't have any receivers protruding from my laptop. Overall, this is a great mouse.
Perfect for my notebook.......2007-12-29
This mouse replaces the corded one that came with my ASUS laptop. The new mouse fits the hand well and is lighter than I thought since it has two AA batteries. There is no lag when moving from a stationary position. It is very sensitive and I use it on my leg or chest with no problem. Well worth the price. I never turn it off and the batteries have not been replaced yet.
Wonderful little mouse.......2007-12-29
This will be short and sweet. This mouse is fantastic. The build quality is top notch, with the materials being smooth and sturdy. The scroll wheel is smooth, but not loose, and the top shell is perfect. It also is light and small, but isn't too small for big hands like some notebook mice, and has a solid weight to it, while still being light.
The Bluetooth works seamlessly with my MacBook Pro, running Leopard, and the battery life is good. The Laser tracking is spot on, with no jumping around. The best part is that there is no little dongle that takes up a USB port.
If you want a good wireless mouse, stop looking and buy this one. I guess the best thing I can say about it is that it makes me want to use my mouse more and more.
Very Good Product.......2007-12-22
Worked perfectly with my Vista laptop. I don't notice any lag at all when using the mouse, and works on every surface I've tried so far. It's a laptop mouse, not full-size, so it takes a little getting used to if you are coming from a desktop mouse.
great feel, great look, awesome mouse.......2007-12-22
Awesome mouse that fits right in your hand. The material feels solid and not "sticky" or "plasticky" Since its got the bluetooth, the main reason I bought it, one doesn't have to mess around with the usb plug-in reciever. Great response time. All-around solid mouse.

You'll love this mouse...Very Comfortable!.......2007-12-28
I bought this for my husband...and he's had both Microsoft and Logitech before. Microsoft is his favorite, and it's a comfortable size and width for his wide hand (even though the mouse is fairly small.)
This mouse is aweasome !.......2007-12-26
I had this mouse for a year, and then it broke
Sensetivity is perfect !
Its pretty compact, its very hard to get use to another mouse after having this on for a long time :D
Microsoft Wireless Notebook Mouse 3000.......2007-12-24
This mouse in theory is a good mouse, problem is the shipper/vendot ships NO software with it to indicate which version of Microsoft it will work with. Mine is very sporadic, I got frustrated after doing all the downloads needed and just gave the laptop to my wife who doesn't use a mouse.
Disappointing.......2007-12-17
I've had a few other optical mice and this is the worst. Every time I use it, I need to press the re-set button at least once. The cost was cheap but it wasn't worth it. Next time I'll spend a little more for a good one.
