Micro Innovations PD7250LSR (788875313769) Mouse

Pros: Great low price for a wireless web ready mouse
Cons: Would not recommend for a laptop on the go

I bought this mouse to use with my laptop, thinking that it would make life easier while on the road. I have learned that it is NOT a good choice for a laptop if you aren't using a solid surface like a table or desktop. The laser eye doesn't seem to ...

Pros: Quick movement, well placed buttons, laser optics, long battery life, power switch, 5MP+ laser sensor.
Cons: none (It isn't free. LOL)

I bought this mouse several weeks ago at my local Wal-Mart to replace my old MI 5-button wireless optical mouse. Anyone who has used a ball mouse and switched to an optical mouse can attest to the leap in technology, and while the leap from optical mice ...

Pros: At $30, it's CHEAP compared to the competition.
Cons: It's CHEAP. Sketchy instructions. Poor ergonomics. It quit after 4 days.

Documentation is sketchy at best. Software loads easily and mouse worked OK out of the box, but instructions, either printed or in the supplied software are very incomplete. The mouse feels cheap in use, and it's hard to keep a comfortable grip on the thing due to its wierd UNergnomic shape. On my example, if I didn't use it for around 10 minutes then I would have to go through the reconnect process between the mouse and its receiver to get it working again. This may be built in as a battery-saving feature (the "instructions" don't say) but gets to being a royal pain in the rare end. After 4 days it mercifully quit altogether, giving me a reason to get rid of it. I had thrown out the WalMart ($30) receipt, but had kept the box, so I took it back and was given credit against a decent Microsoft wireless optical mouse. It isn't laser, but still cost $15 more. I can't seem to tell the difference in operation between laser and simple optical anyway. I know how to feel when a mouse goes belly-up after 4 days, though.
