I connected this to a windows 7 laptop. It still is running on the first battery I put in it. Installation was crazy fast. I've never had a problem with this mouse. I like that I can leave the USB connecter in because it is so small but even if I remove it it gets stored in the mouse. A great purchase.
Push the thing in and it locks into the clicking mode. It will no longer connect. I wrestled with paying more than $20 for a mouse for my laptop, but I don't want anymore headaches. You want clicking. I love it. What else does this mouse offer. until now. Accurate.
SOFTWARE. The software gives you the flexibility of using the other features. Where have you been all of my life. The added features.
I particularly like the scroll wheel. Who cares. I'm setting aside my Targus, $18 mouse. Windows XP Home recognized and installed the receiver with no problem. I've been down about a week without an external mouse for my laptop. Something my Targus did not come with. AWESOME.
Push in the wheel again, disengaging the clicking option and give it a spin like on the Price Is Right. Look at the description. It arrived today. even a display of battery life. 170 days out of the box with two Duracell AAA batteries, provided. But for one last highlight, the button on the top, push it and it opens a small screen allowing you to choose from a vertical list of all of the programs / screens currently running.
Smooth. This mouse and I are going to get along very well. I went with Logitech because of the name and I liked the nano usb receiver. I sit at my laptop the majority of most days. You want a free spinning wheel, one that will take you to the end of the webpage in seconds. Fast.
How cool is that. Simply love it.
Another failure, they have never responded. It was OK until nano receiver stopped working. If you use this item on a desktop computer that receiver is connected all the time, it may last long. Funny though, I have to push it hard on USB ports to make it work. I tried to make contact with customer service. But while using in my laptop which after 4 months, nano receiver became loose and non functional. I don't recommend anyone for portable use.
I play internet poker for a living, and so I need a mouse that is both precise and quick, comfortable, and easy to use. The VX Nano is more than I might want to pay for a mouse otherwise, but its performance can't be overstated. I tried to get by with a cheap Microsoft mouse for a while and deemed it worthless after about a week.
I've seen mice that cost $3 last longer than that. Fortunately, Vista and 7 support the mouse completely without needing to muck about with Setpoint at all.2: The switches are of bad quality and wear out fast.
The ergonomics are great, the tiny receiver makes it good for desktops or netbooks alike, and the frictionless scroll wheel is something that really needs to be on every mouse, ever. But there are two gigantic, ridiculous flaws.
This came SO close to being the perfect mouse. It's insane, and about five minutes of it will be enough to convince you to uninstall Setpoint and just live without sidescrolling.
1: The left and right scroll wheel tilt doesn't work in XP unless you install Logitech's Setpoint driver, which is so buggy as to be worse than useless. Every time you hit the forward or back buttons on the mouse, gibberish ASCII characters are entered in any text fields on whatever website you're browsing.
The right button started failing to register clicks after just 2 months of use. If you buy this thing, make sure you get a receipt.
