(5 out of 5)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.
(5 out of 5)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.
(1 out of 5)Cord did not reach around my laptop!
Whereas this mouse has many nice features, the cord is far too short to be useful on many laptops. I have a Dell 700m notebook. It is a small laptop, but all of the USB ports are on the left side of the computer. This mouse cord is so short, it won't reach to the right hand side of the computer! It is almost absurd to think that in this day and age, such a critical design flaw would be overlooked.
Bottom line - If your laptop has USB ports on the left side of the computer, this mouse WILL NOT reach the other side.
(5 out of 5)Hands down the best mouse you can get for your laptop
This is a very high quality mouse and it's extremely portable. I've had this mouse for over two years without any problems. It's extremely accurate b/c of it's optical light, but it's main strong point is the fact that you can wrap the cord around the mouse for storage. Definitely one of the best investments I made for my Sony VAIO.
(4 out of 5)Great mouse
This is actually my second Logitech Optical Notebook Mouse Plus. The first one failed due to wear and tear. I found that if you wrap the cord around the mouse a lot, as it's designed to do, it can wear out the wire. I now just click the USB connector into the mouse without wrapping the cord and it works great!
