my basic requirements for a mouse to accompany my MBP:

- Bluetooth (I don't want a dongle in my USB port)
- looks nice and matches with the MBP (design-wise)
- portable

So I found these two kensington mice:

SlimBlade™ Trackball Mouse
http://us.kensington.com/html/13880.html
Extra advantage: also has a trackball feature

SlimBlade™ Bluetooth® Presenter Mouse
http://us.kensington.com/html/15707.html
Extra advantage: also a presentation tool


has anyone on here worked with one of these mice or both?
or does anyone have any other recommendations that match my requirements above?

thanks in advance

I've used the first one but not the second. The first one is great because if you don't have enough room to move it with you can switch to the trackball function and use it in one place.

You could try apple mice, the bluetooth MM. It's plastic so aesthetically speaking, I don't know whether you consider that to "match" the MBP. But it has the apple logo on it, so... But the Kesington ones are useful, say on a flight where you might not have enough room to move the mouse, you can switch to the trackball thing.
