I have had this product for months and am completely in love with it. I have accidently dropped and sent parts flying all over the floor, on more than one occasion, and when I put it back together it worked perfectly, my puppy decided that the reciever was a chew toy and when I plugged it back into my laptop it worked like nothing had happened. It is no longer a pretty piece of equipment, alas it has battle scars all over it, but so far I (and my dog) have been completely unable to kill it. I get wonderful battery life, usually I end up having to recharge the laptop before I have to recharge the mouse. I am going to get another one and just leave it in the closet, so I will have a back up if the puppy is successful in her attempts to kill this one

I had the same problems as ubat. it would just quit working after leaving it plugged in, not in use for awhile. I would have to reconnect the USB key in order to get it to work again. Not sure if its suppose to be like that to save power but I doubt it because the batteries dont stay charged very long anyways. I was mostly using the mouse plugged into the cable which completely defeated the purpose of a wireless mouse. It does look and feel great but I would not recommend buying it.

This mouse's fit in my hand is great, as is its anti-slip texture. It's also very sensitive and reliable, with perfect tracking. However... there seems to be some problem with my unit. Every so often its rechargeable batteries simply quit -- and it's not due to discharging, because I am now testing it plugged into USB. The problem seems to be a faulty contact. If I don't use the unit for a while (let's say, go have a meal while leaving the computer on), when I return the mouse will be dead. I have to open the battery compartment and jiggle the batteries a bit. Then, when I close the battery compartment the mouse will work just fine. Until the next time I step away from the computer... I'm not really happy with this, as you can understand. By the way, this mouse will NOT work plugged only to USB: when charging the battery, you have to occupy two USB ports so that the mouse can function and recharge.
