Will this mouse wok with my new Alum imac 24"? I want bluetooth but am worried that this mouse won't work (for notebooks only)? Link to Logitech
V470...

I love my Logitech S530 keyboard and laser mouse combo (for mac!). I got the combo for $69.99 CAN.

I second the Logitech S530. The mouse alone is worth it.

Logitech MX Air is also a great choice. Works flawlessly and the ability to kick back and browse with your mouse on the arm of a chair or just in your lap is very relaxing.

You don't mind the extra bulk the MX Revolution is the best mouse. VX Revolution if you need something more portable.

It'll work fine, as long as your machine supports Bluetooth. The mouse won't know the difference between a desktop and a notebook.

Agreed. Brilliant mouse.

I prefer using AA batteries in the MX600 that comes as part of the S530 over the internal battery in the MX revolution. I agree, ergonomically, the MX revolution is a great mouse...but charging it ever few days is annoying (ever day if you're a heavy user), and eventually, the battery will wear out.

The S530 is cheaper, and comes with a great keyboard as well!

To each his/her own.
