bait and switch
maybe it's just me, but when i bought this, i specifically bought a Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 5000. What i got was a Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 2.0, even though the packaging says Wireless 5000. Maybe it's just the same mouse, with a fancier name, and it works just fine, but the model of my new mouse, 1007, and the label on the bottom of the mouse, are exactly the same model number and label of my previous Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer 2.0. Again, it works great, just don't tinkle on my boots and tell me it's rain. it just seems dishonest. Rating:

great wireless mouse
This is a great wireless mouse for people with big hands, like me.
The selling point of this mouse is its "long battery life", I don't know how to shut it down but it's been working for 2 months now.
I highly recommend Microsoft product. Rating:

Great Mouse
I love the ergonomic fit to this mouse. I gave it four stars only because every once in awhile the mouse will stop responding and I will have to re-synch it. I bought it for my desktop computer. Overall, great product. Rating:

AMAZON: Change your Product Details !!!
"Designed for comfortable left or right hand use" has no right being on this page. This mouse is CLEARLY for use with a RIGHT HAND !! You don't even have to pick it up...just LOOK at it. Why play head games with your customer? Change the text. Simple as that. Do it. Now. Rating:

Nice feel except for the scroll wheel
If you are used to being able to accurately scroll a sreen up or down one or two lines, forget about this mouse. Most times, moving the scroll wheel a bit does nothing, until you move it again, then it jumps up or down half a page and overshoots. I tried all settings in the driver to no avail. The pointer/cursor, though, moves very accurately, why not the scroll wheel too? Very annoying behavior that I cannot seem to get used to. Hopefully an updated driver will fix this SOON!
I like the heavy feel of the mouse. I use a wired Dell/Logitech at work that is too light and has a cheesy feel, but the scroll wheel is accurate. This one feels nice, but then, I also have big hands. Battery life seems not to be an issue. Been using it since Christmas. |
