The mouse failed to work upon arrival. I arranged with Amazon to have a replacement sent. That one worked for about a month before dying as well. On top of the poor quality, the scroll wheel is jerky and unreliable. Scrolling tends to cause a middle click, middle clicking tends to cause scrolling. Terrible.

I found this mouse after long search for a simple, comfortable mouse. The mouse feels good in the hand, but after one day, I plan to return it. The biggest problem is that the wireless mouse uses 2 AA batteries, so it is very heavy! That is bad news for people how push mice around their desk all day. The scroll wheel feels good, but sometimes the first "click" of the scroll wheel doesn't scroll. The mouse is not Bluetooth. You must use an ugly "wireless basestation" USB dongle that looks like a big hockey puck (it's larger than the mouse itself). Also, I'm using this mouse on a Mac and Microsoft's Intellipoint software has a strange un-Mac-like mouse speed/acceleration.

I received this mouse packaged with a keyboard as a Christmas present. The keyboard works 100% (although now I've probably put the whammy on myself), the mouse is one of the most irritating pieces of technology I've ever owned. For no good reason it constantly quits working. I've been through all the "help" (yeah, right) and nothing I've tried fixes it. It's not even 10 inches from the receiver with nothing blocking the signal, yet the cursor will totally freeze on-screen and nothing I try will make it start working. I end up having to re-boot to get it working again. I may keep the keyboard, but the mouse is going.
