A mouse is just a mouse isnt it? Well we thought we had seen a great looking portable laptop mouse in the shape of logitechs cordless mouse for notebooks last year. One year on and seeing the latest model shows how much things have changed- and become even better, for starters, the design is truly delicious. We never thought we would say that about a mouse and certainly not one from logitech (dont get me wrong, they are makers of great mice, but there always seems to be something wrong somewhere, too many buttons, too far to stretch). This rodent, however, seems to be perfectly formed. Vertically designed to be ambidextrous, the mouse fits comfortably in the hand, its a simple affair and at first glance simply a two-button optical mouse. Powered by two aaa batteries and connecting via a wireless dongle, its workings still follow the model from last year, plugging in the usb dongle powered up the mouse and connection on our powerbook was instant. However when we came to use it we suddenly noticed that there was no mouse wheel. Were so used to every mouse these days coming with one it wasnt something we had noticed at first. Damn we thought, oh well another mouse that falls short of the mark, until we realised that rather than a wheel all you have to do is go through the motions of a wheel on the plastic casing and the windows scroll in just the same way, a euphoric moment later, we eventually stopped playing with this feature. Its simple to use and whats more wont get clogged up. In fact we liked it so much that transferring back to our physical wheel mouse from before, just doesnt seem to bring the same smile to our face, but the innovation doesnt stop there. Realising that this is a travel mouse, the wireless receiver that plugs into any available usb slot fits snugly in the mouse when travelling, and makes for a very nice touch indeed.
