best minimalist mouse?

[maraca2020]

what's the best minimalist/sleek/sexy mouse. Preferably one that will match with umbp? Thanks

well unfortunately there aint no aluminum mouses out there right now. The Kensington slimblades seem to be popular with the uMBs.

I like this Elecom mouse. (http://www.slashgear.com/elecom-mouse-m-d13ur-series-302693/)

Comes in red, black and silver.

Very handy when traveling.

MM's are cool but the right clicking kinda sucks if you wanna use it with Windows apps.

Minimalist... thats a hard one because the best one is probably the MM but man I hate that mouse. There is a rocketfish mouse thats close to a MM. http://www.rocketfishproducts.com/pc-115-3-rocketfish-bluetooth-wireless-laser-mouse.aspx

Personally, I use the Logitech VX laser. Its been a favorite of mine for a while, and does well on batteries.

This brings up a good question as to what minimalist means to the user. Hopefully the OP will chime in with their opinion.

IMHO, I think size has something to do with it. I was curious as to the size difference between the mouse that you mentioned and the Elecom M-D13ur (http://www2.elecom.co.jp/peripheral/mouse/m-d13ur/index.asp) mouse.

For comparison, Rocketfish to Elecom:

Height: 1.4" --> 1.14"

Width: 2.4" --> 2.17"

Depth: 4.4" --> 3.34"

Cubic inches: 14.78 --> 8.26

Weight: 2.4oz --> 2.0oz

Surprised at how much different they are in size.

Just some food for thought. :)

...vx nano or MS arc both come to mind... I like my v470 BT and my v450 Micro (receiver) units...

If you still want something that looks Apple-like, I suggest MacMice (http://www.mac-pro.com/Mac-Pro-Online-Store/Macmice). It's available in silver, too.

Targus (http://www.targus.com/us/formac/) also has some very nice selections

thanks everyone.

By minimalist i didn't mean small, i meant something like a "sculpture" (wrong word) like maeby the microsoft arc shape but nicer. Thanks!

The older Apple Pro Mouse, the one before the Mighty Mouse. "Where's the button?"

It's still my favorite mouse.

What about Microsoft's new Arc Mouse, its kinda cool - oops I said the M word - apologies, but the product looks good.
