I've used two wireless mouses so far and what I get turned off by is that the battery life is usually REALLY SHORT. Which mouse do you guys use? and I want to know which ones are better: wireless or the plugged ones.

i have 2 wireless mice. its quite nice. for my laptop, i have a Microsoft notebook one that uses a AA battery i think. it lasts a few months before it dies, which is prety good. the mx700 i use on my desktop computer uses 2xAAs...but i usually just stick it in the recharging cradle before i sleep...never had it "die" on me yet, since its always charged, lol.

how long is your battery life? i suppose if you really hate dealing with batteries, you could go wired my keyboard is.

it's a bit to big,but at least it last forever

[HeartOfRose]

haha i love the idea of the recharging cradle!!

hmm, my current wireless mouse lasted me less than a month.. maybe less than that. It may be because my parents bought me a cheap mouse.

I have a Microsoft wireless laser mouse... It's nice I guess but I hate how it doesn't have a back/forward button =__=

lol. perhaps. i have another microsoft wireless mouse. with it, you hafta take out the batteries and replace them. but with some mice, like my old mx700, you just stick it in the charger, and you never hafta open it up. maybe consider something like that if you still want to go wireless.

gracias amigo

argh, i wish they made pretty mouses.. they all look macho LOL except the apple mouse, but i think that is solely for mac-usuers. NYEHH.

i have a MX1000, that I haven't used for a while (too heavy for my weak wrists), the battery life on that thing was like around 2 or 3 months. The box claimed 6 months, but that's probably on standby.

i have a hello kitty mouse that plugs in

I use this MX510 as well. Its great imho, I like wired mouses personally, I can't stand changing the batteries.

[gaomingming]

wired. optical.

no need for a wireless mouse.

[angelqian]

I have MX400 (wired), it's pretty nice, and I think I'll stick with wired.

For my laptop, I either use this really tiny mouse that plugs into the USB or my tablet for when I'm doing more artistic crap, lol. The mouse for the tablet is wireless of course, but the tablet plugs into the USB as well.

I'm using a Logitech G5, but I kinda wish I bought a G7 (wireless) instead. I heard the battery life is kinda good

I used Logitech bluetooth wireless mice before, and the battery lasted for weeks of everyday use. Loved it.

But since I like to be more mobile, I've trained myself to use the touchpad on my laptops.

i need one of those rechargeable ones man...mine runs out of batteries real fast! and yes i use wire

[w4termelon]

arghhh. i feeel outdated= =

[DKYang]

MX500. I've only used wired mouses. If I ever need to change my mouse, then I'll probably get wireless.

[EenXsooN]

i use a wired basic dell mouse

it works fine for me

I use a wired one because I would lose a wireless one.
