I wanted to use it in the living room, with the computer across the room, but the bluetooth is very weak. <br /> Rating: 3 / 5 This is a nice device, but beware, it really is only for notebooks.

Once the wheel is down it tends to activate the horizontal scroll buttons as well. If this were a software problem it might be fixed with the latest driver. Unfortunately, I believe this is a mechanical design flaw. Rating: 1 / 5 Pushing down the wheel to activate the middle button requires an annoying amount of effort.

It seems that the battery was not well positioned inside the compartment. Eventually I was able to fix this problem. After that the mouse works fine. I am not able to change my original review to the 4 stars that the working product deserves. <br /> <br />The software (a whopping 50+ MB file) must be installed to access the special features such as zooming and side to side scrolling. <br /> <br />My only complaint is that the product feels too light and insubstantial in the hand. A heavier, larger mouse would be more in line with what one is used to on desktops. Rating: 1 / 5 I initially had problems getting this unit to work.

Bought this mouse, immediately returning it, it won't get a signal past 1/2 meter! Not impressed with Logitech, their stuff never lasts more than a year. Going to try my luck with a different manufacturer. <br /> Rating: 1 / 5 The other people reviewing this mouse must use it RIGHT UP AGAINST the receiver.

My only complaint is that the range of use seems to be VERY small. I am right-handed, and the mouse only works within about 4 inches from the right side of my laptop. Outside of 4 inches away, the mouse freezes and I'm constantly having to pick up the mouse and move it back within range. I'm going to try a new battery to see if the issue persists, but right now it's just a quirk to get used to. <br /> <br />You lefties should have no problem :) Rating: 3 / 5 Overall, this is a great mouse – very easy to use, intuitive commands, and pretty much just a “plug and play” device.
