I use that one and it's awesome. the USB receiver is extremely tiny. you barely even know it's there.
the actual mouse itself just about has every feature that a normal mouse would have, but in a small clamshell.
they're pricey little mice, but well worth it.
I currently use the Bluetooth MM for my White MacBook and of course it matches perfectly. But, I do LOVE the above mouse also. I've used it before and it's very nice for laptops because the USB connection is SO SMALL. It's about half an inch long and looks close to the size of the end of the power cord (the part that attaches to the laptop). I may be moving to this mouse once the price drops. At the moment it's just way to $$$. But, it feels and moves better than the MM
Yea the logitech you guys are taling about is amazing, I saw it too. The only thing that bugs me is 2x AAA batteries....
Any idea how long 2x AAA will last?

I use the VX Revolution and the batteries just keep on going and going and going. No kidding. This set of AAA been in there for 3 months and I do use my mouse a lot.
put it like this. I don't remember just exactly when I bought my VX Nano but I know it was way before Thanksgiving of last year. so at least four or five months later and I'm still using the two Duracell batteries that came with it.
I'd say that's pretty damn good. I do however always turn the mouse off when it's not being used so that might be the reason why they've lasted so long.
I have the logitech v470 bluetooth mouse and I'd give it 8/10
I'll start with the (few) negatives:

Pros:
I'm very happy with my purchase

I'll start with the (few) negatives:
Cons:
- normally when you want to wake your mac using an external mouse you move the mouse or click it, but with v470 as soon as my mac goes into sleep mode, the mouse automatically wakes up without being moved or clicked.
- This one is just me being picky, don't know if any mouse does this; I was hoping that I could do something like hold 1st click and scroll to change volume or zoom etc, but multiple button functions don't seem possible. I have assigned all my buttons to functions so doing this would give me more functionality
Pros:
- It's bluetooth! therefore I don't need a dongle as macbook supports it, leaving a usb port free.
- Despite what you might think, it is extremely power efficient. I've had it for ~3weeks now, and the batteries are at bout 85%, and I have the mouse turned on ~75% of the time.
- There is an on/off switch on the mouse so as to saved power when packed away in ur bag when travelling for instance.
- It only cost £30 and its white to match my macbook
I'm very happy with my purchase

I use a logitech v270. It's a great bluetooth mouse, and it's quite responsive. I got it on ebay for $26 shipped...
Yup that's the same mouse i have, best mouse I've ever owned.
I use this guy here:

Yeah, I know it's Microsoft, but it's comfy, small/portable, looks nice, and works really well, its also bluetooth so it leaves my usb ports open for my Sierra 875u aircard, and a portable hard drive.

I also use a Razer DeathAdder and couldn't be happier. Traditionally I've used Logitech mice and switched from a Logitech G5. The DeathAdder is amazing.
I'll second that, have not had a problem in a year, works great, feels great and I use rechargeable batterys which have lasted longer than regular ones
I have the Razer Pro Click 1.6 and I'd give it an 9/10
Pros: -Drivers are GREAT, and highly customizable
- 7 Button Mouse
- Extremely high DPI
- Looks great with my MB
- Great for gaming
Cons: - Wired
- Shape takes a little getting used
I'd say get the Razer, only if your going to be using the mouse for something that needs precision or accuracy to some degree. Otherwise just go out and buy a Bluetooth Mighty Mouse.

Anyone has any positive experiences with the BT550 Bluetooth mouse from Radtech?

I was thinking about getting one if they work well. I like the fact that you can use and recharge it at the same time with the included USB cable.
