MX900 (optical BT) or MX1000 (laser standard wireless) for new iMac?

I couldn't live without this thing now...all the buttons setup how I want, the "cruise" scroll...I hate going to work and using a standard mouse 🙁 😀

So does the "Frickin LAZER" come with any warnings about not sticking it up against your eyeball.

The moment you take it off your desk (even a few milimeters), the fricken laser turns off, so you can't blind yourself.

Thanks 🙂 Nice to know there is a fricken safety 😛

Actually, that's not true. I have one and if you hold it at just the right angle you can see a very tiny red dot. I just didn't believe Logitech when I bought it and had to look for myself.

And as far as the mouse being heavy, I am using it on my PC for gaming and I don't really notice the weight at all. The response time is so good that it makes up for the extra couple of ounces.

Question...the scroll wheel, is it smooth or have a tactile 'bump' to it as you scroll? I ask because I'm addicted to the MS Intellimouse Explorer (4) smooth scroll wheel -- wheels with bumps annoy me to no end. It just scrolls so smooooooooooth. 😀

Sounds like a great mouse! Frickin lazer beam! 🙂

It has a very slight bump to it, but I like it 😀

That made me laugh incredibly hard out-loud!

Can someone explain to me real quick if the MX1000's reciever is that charger base but its hooked up to USB, or is the reciever just a little USB dongle like I've seen on others. I really like the MX1000, but since I'll be using it with my Powerbook, I don't want to be carrying around that big charger base as well, but I wouldn't mind the USB dongle that I've seen from other companies.
