Solid and responsive
I've been using this mouse for a couple of days now and I really like it. I wanted a wired laser mouse for my laptop so that I can stop taking my Logitech MX1000 plus receiver/charger base unit with me, which is obviously much less portable.

This model doesn't feature an Application Switch button like my old one, but otherwise performs in exactly the same way. It's smaller, very light and glides over surfaces well. The cord is a decent length, though I haven't felt it necessary to undo the cable tie on it yet - sufficient in length while bundled up. The horizontal scrolling is nice to have, but I'm sure only very few people use it; I hold down the space-bar and left click in my design programs to move around, and web pages hardly ever require horizontal scrolling. My only niggle so far is that the right mouse button is very easy to click by accident, and it happens very frequently when I'm just resting my finger on it. This has caused me to lose a few plasma grenades on Halo PC, and keeps bringing up right-click menus in applications. However I'm sure I'll soon get used to this, and I'll learn in time to adopt a different grip to avoid this. Great value at the time of purchase, too. Optical mice are becoming obsolete, I hope people realise they should spend a couple more pounds to get a product that will work on almost any surface with incredible accuracy, such as laser mice offer.

Logitec MX400 Mouse, Wicked!
[...]

The Logitec is a HUGE step forward. So accurate in terms of usability, and the included software (Mac compatible) allows you to customise a lot of functions the mouse has/can add to your workflow. Apple make some great computers, why can't they sort their peripherals out to work as amazing as Logitec kit?

Got a Mac? Get this mouse! (Obviously get it as well if you're running a PC and want a new mouse hehe!)

Very elegant and extremely 'handy': what a great gizmo!
In my aged ignorance, I didn't know that 'mice' had evolved much from the left click/right click and middle-roller. This Logitech example has already given me much pleasure, however, for it is very elegant even to look at - I admire its lines literally for minutes on end - and, more importantly, it is extremely 'handy,' both to handle and to operate. The 'left click/right click and middle-roller' is augmented by a 'tip right' and 'tip left' function that is good for processing pictures and the additional 'forward - back' buttons are great for both pictures and text. What a great gizmo!
