Mouse Reviews

This is a great combination--no cord on the keyboard or the mouse. Installation--absolutely simple. The batteries in the mouse don't last so long (that little red light is on all the time) but the keyboard batteries seem to last forever.

I have had this on the desktop PC at home for a year and it's operated flawlessly. I couldn't be more pleased.

I've had the Logitech wireless keyboard and optical mouse combo on my Dell for over a year now. I had already figured out that optical mice would Betamax their non-optical brethren (the accuracy & durability of the optical mouse so clearly thumps the old dirt catching roller-ball that I predict the total eradication of the latter before baseball leaves Montreal).
Anyway, the cordless thing is the issue here. I set up the little box under my desk by plugging its 2 wires into the keyboard & mouse ports on the back of my computer (you can use USB for either or both if you prefer), put the batteries (supplied) into the mouse & keyboard (2 AAs each), slid the CD into my PC and with Windows XP, set-up was nearly automatic. Total installation time (including my attaching the little box with velcro to the underside of the desk) was under 10 minutes.
Accuracy is 100%. Range is more than adequate (i.e. better than your visual range). Battery life has been about 2 months for the mouse and about 4 months for the keyboard. Now, it may cost a little more, but the convenience of never having to get those 2 wires tangled anymore has really been great.

This mouse has the two features which are important for any device made for laptops...it's small (does not take up much room)...and it's extremely light. This mouse has a short chord which is enough for use with a laptop...the chord is long enough to go around the backside of my laptop and through to the mousepad without too much excess. I can still scroll comfortably and when I put the laptop in the bag, I won't have too much chord to have to wrap up for the mouse which also saves space in my laptop case. This mouse will work well with lefties and righties. There are two main buttons and the scrolling wheel/button. The mouse is also smaller than the typical desktop mouse but is still very comfy.

I would definitely not recommend this device though for use with a desktop system because of the fact that the chord would probably not work in a desktop setting.

It's the best choice for notebook system users. Its cord is short, but enough for my notebook and desktop systems. The size is small, so it fits my targus notebook bag. When i play a real time strategy game(like Starcraft ^^), its moving saticfied me.

This mouse has such an amazing design that it fits perfectly to my hand. Clicking and dragging motion is very smooth without any tention in my hand and arm because of its cleaver design. I love it.

I have an older Mac and its very hard to find anything {resonably
priced}that has adb until i found Office Depot{price was great} thru Amazon and i love this mouse it works great. some day i wish Apple or some one would invet a cordless with adb connection

As the package says,"basic mouse". This is a great mouse if all you need is to click here and there, and get you pointer to move across your screen. No wheel to scroll your window up and down. Just two buttons, left and right. Probably would serve the needs of most people with PCs.

It is small, efficient and well shaped. A must have

I initially got this mouse and the Logitech iFeel mouse for FPS games, like UT2003 and MOHAA. But not too many games seemed to support this mouse's force feedback feature, until Immersion Corp released "instant" force feedback software (TouchWare Gaming software) that let's you "feel" nearly every game with this mouse. You can feel weapons, explosions and any other sound in any game, including strategy games live CIV3. If you already have this mouse or any FF device, do yourself a favor and look into the TouchWare Software too. I've been enjoying the "feel" of Max Payne 2, Call of Duty and XIII recently. It's way cool.

Was slightly weary of purchasing after having a logitech wingman force mouse but this is a comfortable mouse and the sensations are decent plus you can do your own ifeel forces

This is the first time I've ever ordered anything on-line, and I was happily surprised to find this adorable Minnie phone arrive quickly and looking exactly like it did in the picture. I would most definately order from this company again. They were terrific!

This phone works great, and looks cute to. The only thing that disapointed me was that it was plastic, but it is still a great phone. There is a volume control on the phone, and it is easy to adjust the volume. I would deffinitly recomend this phone to any disney lover!

Painter Classic is one of the best tools for computer art drawing. It has many different actions you can do to make your artwork oustanding. With the tablet you draw onit and it appears on the screen then later you can edit your drawing after you draw it from the tablet.

In my years of graphics design work I have never had as much comfort and natural useability from a graphics tablet. The pen feels very comfortable and the mouse performs quite nice as well. I would rank it as a must for any serious artist, whose making the switch to computer graphics or anyone already in the field. The use of this product has been pure pleasure from day one. Not once was there a driver issue (in Windows 2000 pro) or any other common problems with like devices ......IN SHORT THE BEST OF THE BEST THERE IS.......PERIOD......

pen works great, just like writing/drawing on paper or any other surface! though it does take getting used to. you are able to set the pressure and eraser too! works great in photoshop and other programs.

i use the wacom tablet daily! i use the mouse as a regular mouse on the tablet and it works great! it's so customized that even other people have trouble using it because they do not hold their hand in a certain way! the only negative thing is that i have not yet found how to program the middle scroll button using the included wacom program.

the BAD: the pen is too easy to knock off the stand when upright, cord is way too short [buy an USB extension cord], mouse could be more ergonomic and lightweight

This graphics tablet is a must for anyone who wants to do serious graphic design. Drawing, tracing, painting, etc will become so much easier in Photoshop, Illustrator, Painter and 3D programs. And for everyone who isn't into graphics illustration, you will be able to sign your own name in your documents, make hand-written notes in certain programs and draw in simple drawing programs more naturally: Holding a pen. And get this, you can trace over other drawings by placing the drawing under the transparent overlay! In addition, you get a cordless mouse with a finger wheel! You can also do all your regular opening, closing, scrolling, dragging functions like you would with a mouse or use the cordless or your own mouse (if it isn't a serial mouse). And the buttons can be customized! PLUS, you get 6 free programs: Adobe Photoshop LE Painter Classic Pen Tools (plug-ins) Pen Office SE (PC only) Sensiva (PC only) Adobe Active Share (PC only). Installation was super easy! This USB tablet supports hot-plugging, which allows you to connect or disconnect the tablet while the computer is on. The only thing that I would have liked more was to get a better manual. They provide online manuals for the tablet and the programs but I like something to hold while I'm working. Printing dozen of pages doesn't sound so exciting to me. But for everyone who doesn't like "yet another manual" this won't be a problem at all. Lastly, I highly recommend this tool. It doesn't only look good, it comes from a great company and it's affordable. :)

As a long-time computer user, I've always been in a search for the holy grail of input devices. I have realized that, for me, there is no single ideal input device. Instead, I have collected an arsenal of devices, with each serving a particular need extremely well -- my Microsoft Natural Keyboard for the massive amount of typing I do and my Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer for everything else... that is, until I finally bit the bullet and added the Wacom Graphire graphics tablet to the mix.

I purchased the tablet primarily for my work in retouching photos and creating web graphics. However, I have found myself using it as my primary GUI navigation (web browsing, drag & drop) device, as well. I find it extremely natural to hold the Graphire's stylus, although after prolonged use I do tend to periodically switch back to my Intellimouse to prevent cramping in my hand. This is more an ergonomics lesson -- you know, the "Take breaks every 15-30 minutes" one no one follows -- than a negative aspect of the Graphire. :) I would have bought the Graphire even if it had not come with the wireless mouse which, while I have no doubt is precise, I do not find as comfortable or useful as my Intellimouse (I love its browser "Back" button capability and the smoother wheel operation).

While I had never seriously used a graphics tablet before, I have been a PDA (Casio Cassiopeia E-115) user for almost 2 years so I am very familiar with stylus-based input. I enjoy the natural feel of the Graphire's stylus so much I have taken to using it instead of my PDA's stylus when I need to update info. on my PDA while it's docked at my desk.

I'd recommend "test driving" a graphics tablet before buying as you will either love it or hate it. I'm definitely in the "love it" category... but it doesn't replace my Intellimouse entirely.

The Wacom Graphire tablet has a great mouse, but an even better pen. This pen is smaller than the mouse and will do all of the same functions.

I own the Wacom Graphire2 4x5 in the silver color. The Bronze color sounds very cool while the silver matched my 1" thick Titanium Powerbook (Mac) perfectly!. The price was right-on for a transportable option to the little square "mouse" on my powerbook and the teeny tiny red button on my friend's PC laptop.

No matter what platform you are on, as long as you have USB connection this product will fit in your case as you transport.

I am a computer graphics pro and art director and use this tablet with my portable mac, plus at my workstation with 23" monitor. I love the versatility of the pressure-sensitive pen in Photoshop & Painter software. The cordless mouse option is a MUST when I am giving presentations.

Buy it and LOVE it..

I have used a drawing tablet for years, by another company. Now that I have OSX on my computer that tablet is virtually useless, unless I boot in OS9. I was not planning on buying a tablet until I saw the price on this one. Unbeatable!

A great product, with great extra software too!

I was hesitant about the size, but once you get use to it it is great!
