    5.0 out of 5 stars GR8 MOUSE !!, 13 Jan 2004
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse Red (Accessory)
    THIS IS A GREAT MOUSE !! SIMPLY WONDERFUL !!
    The tilt wheel is a great innovation which is very useful. Not only can u sroll up and down but also sideways.
    The battery life is improved(cant be sure right now). The red colour just adds a more glamarous look to it. Because it is optical u dont need a mouse pad and can be used just about anywhere.
    It is supplied with a usb as well as ps/2 connector. It is very smooth and easy and light to use.
    The wirelesss ability reduces the hassle of wires and increases the range of use to about a metre from the receiver

    However it has a few problems in relation to compatibility,
    it can only work on Windows 2000, XP and Mac 10.1 or higher .
    .
    This is not a bug however, it is stated on the box.So please make sure that u have double checked that.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent mouse, 17 Oct 2004
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse Red (Accessory)
    I have had this mouse for roughly ten months now, and it has been excellent. It has only needed one change of batteries in the entire time, which works out at more than four months per set - pretty good going considering it has flashing lights and radio transmitters!
    The horizontal tilt-wheel is an excellent feature, which makes viewing pages too big for the screen a doddle, and it is supported by more and more software every day. The optical sensitivity is great, and the clicky-ness of the buttons is just enough to give you real feedback, without being too noisy.
    The design is quite nice, and although mine has accidentally flown across the room, it is still in one piece - so it is very robust. The same goes for the receiver, which although probably not any use for a laptop, is perfect for my desktop, peeping out from behind the monitor. The only disadvantage I have found is that the signal range is not that good, only about a metre maximum. However, there is so much electronic junk on my desk that cordless phones dont work properly either, so I can't really blame Microsoft!
    All in all, a good mouse, worth every penny.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Red Hot Rodent, 21 Jun 2008
    This review is from: Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse Red (Accessory)
    I bought this for my Dad several years ago. He loved it.

    It works on any surface, it's light, and since it's a little bigger than the average mouse fits into a man size hand better than others I've tried.

    The battery lasts for ages. It works a fair distance from the PC too.

    We both like the looks - smart without being flashy.

    If only Microsoft made software this good we'd be in for a treat :-)
