Im looking for a BT Mouse for a Macbook Pro im buying soon, so far the Logitech V470 looks good at £35, but i've really got used to Forwards and back buttons on the left side of the mouse, and sadly this is the only Logitech BT Mouse :eek: So does any other company make a BT Mouse thats upto Logitechs standard? Or am i going to have to get used to always moving to top left every time i want to go back a page!

I just got around to returning a V470 today.

This mouse would go into some sort of power save mode on its own if left alone for more than about 30 seconds, and would take a second or two to respond after that. Every time I would grab the mouse and start to use it, it would get around to waking up after the cursor was already halfway across the screen.

I got a black Lazer Pro|Click Mobile that was more expensive than the V470 but so far has been more reliable.

Whatever you do...just be sure to stay away from Apple's Mighty Mouse. For now, Logitech seems to be the way as far as a mouse is concerned. <><
 
It seems my mouse's style has been dropped completely :(

Maybe i can configure the V470's left and right scroll click to do the same?

Also, my budget is £35 or $70
 
is there a wireless mouse that can provide its power by movement instead of using batteries?
changing batteries is always a big hassle
 
I bought 2 BT Mighty Mouse's for my MBP (one for my desk and one for my travels) and have recently listed them both on ebay and I am now looking for an equivalent. Dell make a good looking BT mouse. Have a search on ebay.
