I just got my Logitech V470 bluetooth mouse in the mail and I'll be getting the MBA refresh soon, so I can't test it out. My problem is that it comes with a CD which "provides support for tilt wheel and allows you to customize button assignments and adjust cursor speed."

The Air doesn't have a CD drive, so I was wondering if anybody has used this mouse with their Air, and did it work without setting it up with the CD? Would I still be able to use the tilt wheel and customize the buttons?

Thanks for the help.

I can't try it out now either, because my laptop has Ubuntu installed.

No CD drive? Oh no! Ever heard of the internet?

It'll work fine. Don't need the CD install the driver downloaded from Logitech.

Also Better Touch Tool is a nice free mouse upgrade.

Not sure, I use a Razor Orochi BlueTooth mouse. No side scrolling and only two of the four buttons under OSX. But a really nice mouse nonetheless.
