    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 21, 2009

    Pros: Easy to use

    Cons: Doesn't last longer than a year

    I wish I had done my homework a little more. Just like a lot of other reviewers have noted, my mouse stopped working after about a year of use. I can plug in the mouse and it will work for about 5 minutes, but then it dies. Letting it "rest" for a few minutes with the USB plugged back into the mouse helps, but it's frustrating. Save your money and buy another mouse that will last longer than 1 year!

    Love it-getting another one!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Dec 16, 2007

    Pros: No software, easy to use, batteries last forever!

    Cons: none yet

    I've had this for close to a year and it's awesome. There's nothing to set up and I can just plug it in any computer and use it. Once my husband saw this, he uses it for his computer, so it's not always there when I use my laptop. I'm getting him his own for Christmas!

    GREAT - til it dies!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 21, 2007 | 3 out of 3 found this Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 review helpful

    Pros: Easy to use

    Cons: Doesn't last long

    This mouse WAS great, compact, easy to use, convenient USB storage when not in use. About a year after purchasing the mouse my computer would give me a "do not recognize USB device" message when I plugged the mouse in. I would unplug it and plug it back in and it would work for a little while and then it would just stop. At first unplugging it and replacing the USB connector back into the base of the mouse and letting it "rest" for some time would help. But after a few days of this it finally stopped working. Up until this point I would have recommended this mouse as I had no previous problems. However, after this I would not recommend - a mouse should last longer than a year!

    Perfect size wireless mouse

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 23, 2006

    Pros: Plug and Play, cheap, perfect size

    Cons: No real cons so far

    I hate using the laptop mouse so this is a dream come true for me. I love the size - it is perfect for my small hands.

    Worth avery cent

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 11, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 review helpful

    Pros: Small, Accurate, & Comfortable in the hand

    Cons: nill

    When I went looking for a wirless mouse for my laptop I took my time. I looked at reviews online, searched out the advice of my friends, and went to the store to look at them in person. Of the dozens of mice that I looked at there were only two that I was interested in at the end and I chose the one from microsoft and let me tell you I am glad that I made the choice. This mouse has been nothing but good to me the entire time that I have had it. The battery life is astounding, in fact I have not had to cange the battery in the mouse since I have bought it nearly three months ago and I use it a lot! I would recomend this and really any other Mircosoft mouse to anyone. They are definatly worth the money.

    One of the best little mice around!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 9, 2005 | 8 out of 8 found this Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 review helpful

    Pros: Superb connectivity. Palm sized. Rubber grip. Ergonomic. Luxurious Styling.

    Cons: Price. XP does not automatically recognize the center button.

    After searching for the best wireless mouse for use with my notebook, the Microsoft MS Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse was the best one around. I actually bought the Targus wireless mouse since its price was a little more appealing but quickly found out that it was not built to last. The battery consumption was huge and the range was not as powerful. I opted in going to the Microsoft Mouse as I returned the Targus Mouse. I couldnt have made a better exchange. The USB remote tucks away underneath the mouse itself. A definite must for the traveling user since small parts usually get accedentally misplaced. The mouse was also designed to last for ever. The mouse turns on low usage when not in use saving battery. I only wish that it could have t adiional side buttons as my Intellimouse Explorer has. Other than that, I highly recommend this mouse.
