The Bottom Line For mobile mousing without the hassle of a receiver, Microsoft's Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 fits the bill as long as you don't mind its somewhat lumpy design. If you can afford its high price, you'll be pleased by the Logitech VX Nano Cordless Laser Mouse's comfort, features, and extremely portable design. The Kensington Ci75m Wireless Notebook Mouse is a fine choice for when a laptop touch pad just won't do, with a USB receiver and USB cable stuffed into its slim body. The Logitech VX Revolution Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks is the ultimate mousing experience on the go, providing comfort, performance, and features in a travel-friendly form factor. If you can afford its $79 price, you won't be disappointed.
