Hello Peter and WAMUGGERS

I love my Logitech LX7 5 button cordless mouse. It is designed for both left handed and right handed people, which is very important at our house.

The mouse scrolls left and right, up and down etc. I have the buttons programmed for Expose and was very put out recently when I had to go back to a 3 button model for a while as my LX7 was stolen.

The LX7 has be superseded and I was not as impressed with the replacement, so I managed to buy two from an American ebay site.

Crispin Zinsmeister is the owner of Reforger.com and was very friendly and helpful. They recycle new and rebuilt equipment and I was able to buy them for AUD $86.00, delivered to Mosman Park, for the two. ie $43.00 each. I am very happy with this.

Here is a link to the ebay site <http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ViewItem&item=370222444296&ssPageName=ADME:X:RTQ:US:1123>.

PS. I have taught myself to use the mouse with my left hand (I am right handed) as my wife is a leftie (work of the devil). It took about a week but I now prefer it, as I can mouse with the left and type with the right. Sometimes when I use two computers at once, I mouse with a one in each hand. This is very useful when performing maintenance tasks. Anyone trying to learn to use the opposite hand will be very frustrated at first but believe me, it's well worth the effort.

Kind regards

I've used a Microsoft Bluetooth 5000 model - worked great and lasted ages - mind, I found the mouse a little small for my hand and I did experience a bit of physical pain so I had to stop that one.

Anyone using a bluetooth mouse? Roadtest reports?

I have a Logitech mouse which I bought in March 2007. It has never
failed me, and I think I've changed the batteries twice in that time.
Certainly no more than that.

It always pairs within seconds and runs all day. Excellent device.
