Editorial Reviews :
Microsoft's Wireless Optical Mouse Blue features the best of all worlds--no cord, no ball, and comfort that is almost legendary with Microsoft mice.
Two recently introduced mouse technologies come together in this mouse. As the name suggests, it uses a low-power wireless link to transmit its movements to Windows or the Mac OS--the device is compatible with both platforms. The mouse also has no ball, instead using a high-intensity LED and optical sensor to detect movement.
While primarily a USB device, this mouse can also be used with the supplied converter with an older PS/2 mouse port. It connects into most Windows-based PCs without need for separate drivers. Plug it in, Windows sees it, and within a few seconds it's controlling the screen pointer. It is compatible with Windows 98 and later.
Two AA batteries (included) power the Wireless Optical Mouse Blue's optical sensor. The mouse effectively takes a series of pictures of whatever surface it's moved over--no mouse pad necessary--comparing each with the previous one to detect motion. The use of an optical sensor means the only moving parts on the mouse are its two buttons and its clear scroll wheel. The 'blue' in the mouse's name describes the sides and back of its body and an inset around the scroll wheel. Its top surface is silver.
The mouse has a good range--we were able to get a response from the screen pointer at a distance of over 10 feet. It communicates with a small, oval receiver, also supplied, which draws its power from the USB or PS/2 socket into which it's plugged.
Buyer Reviews :
Have owned the Wireless Optical Mouse Blue for a few months. This mouse replaced my Microsoft Wireless Mouse because the ball was collecting every piece of dust from the desk...and the desk is pretty clean. The Mouse is small, comfortable, not too many buttons, and no wire or ball. It does cause the pointer to jump a bit when moving at a fast rate, but this never causes me not to be able to click on what I want. The battery life is the same as many other wireless mice I have used...even though the light stays on when the computer is shut down. I plugged it in, did not install any of the software, and it has been working fine ever since. Just have to keep within range of the reciever, but it still works where I cant read what is on the monitor. My rating may be a little generous because I always found the wire on the mouse annoying, and I may be willing to put up with a little barely noticeable imperfections. Overall, I like the mouse.
