  Best mouse out there for serious users.

  by LudoH on September 1, 2008

  Pros: -Design
  -Precision
  -Accepts standards batteries
  -Battery life

  Cons: -Logitech drivers, though they've improved.
  -Impossible to use if you are left handed.

  Summary: I think the lack of charger is a good thing. First of all they take unecessary desk space, and often feel cheap. While standard AA batteries are heavier than a Lithium-Ion battery (like the one in the MX Revolution), they are inifinitely superior. The Revolution's battery is not replaceable, quickly loses autonomy, and last a year and a half at best. Of course owning a charger with rechargeable NiMH AA batteries is a must (they are cheap, last several years, and can be found anywhere).

  Charging included in Cordless Desktop Wave Pro version

  by scottc919 on July 15, 2009

  Pros: - On the fly DPI switch
  - All the other great stuff the MX Revolution had... INCLUDING RECHARGING
  The MX1100 that comes with the Cordless Desktop Wave Pro package includes recharging... via a mini-USB port on the front of the mouse.

  Cons: - No recharging dock... you have to keep track of another USB charging cable now.
  - Scroll wheel lacks the automatic switch from micro gear to free scroll when you scroll faster. It's all manual with the button now.

  Summary: After using the MX Revolution for 9 months or so, I was looking for a second one and found the MX1100 combo pack with the Wave Pro keyboard. I like ...

  Summary: After using the MX Revolution for 9 months or so, I was looking for a second one and found the MX1100 combo pack with the Wave Pro keyboard. I like them both. I do miss the auto-switch to free scrolling, but otherwise consider this one of the best combinations I've found. It works well for non-pro gaming with the DPI switch and feels comfortable and substantial in my large hands.
  
  I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a business or mixed-use home mouse.

  Buy Rechargeable Batteries

  by uncleyitz on September 4, 2008

  Pros: I have used rechargable batteries in my mice for years
  2 batts sit in the wall charger and 2 in the mouse
  I swap em as needed
  I have thrown out 2 perfectly good bluetooth headsets when the battery died
  User replaceable batteries is a huge plus for me

  Cons: The on-mouse DPI setting is a waste for most users who will set it and forget it.
  No Linux version of the SetPoint software.

  Summary: Not the best gaming mouse, but for business users, programmers, and other power users, this is probably the best choice.

  A great mouse, but not perfect

  Summary: Bottom line, the MX 1100 is a great mouse. Compared to the MS Explorer BlueTrack mouse, I think it is superior in terms of ergonomics and functions (more buttons). However, it does not feel as solidly built as the Explorer (the moving scroll wheel from left to right if you shake it) and is not as great for precision work because of its laser position at the tip of the mouse. Most people will likely need to adapt themselves to the laser position in order to fully appreciate this mouse. I have seen people complain about the cursor not reacting when the mouse is moved by a bit and this is probably caused by the laser position.

  No rechargeable is a VERY good thing here

  Pros: Mouse is solid.
  Ergonomics very welll thought out (for right handed user. Lefities are out on your own here folks

  Summary: I purchased the MX Performance mouse a few weeks ago. I loved everything about it. Everything, that is, except the battery. Yes, the performance is rechargeable, but I was having to plug the thing in at least once a week or more.
  
  Sure, you can work while it recharges, but if I'd wanted a mouse that I had to plugin all the time, I'd have just purchased a "corded" mouse (because for all intents and purposes, that's what it was)
  
  Logitech has figured out a way for one to get 6+ months out of a pair of alkaline batteries, so I just don't worry about changing or charging all the time. I just plug in a set of alkaline batteries (and really, sure you can use your own rechargeable batteries, but for maybe $1.79 every 6 months, I don't mind not having rechargeable batteries.).
  
  Also, because of the previous iterations of wireless mice and keyboards (those that didn't have long battery life) I went through batteries every few days. So now I have a drawer full of alkalines already anyway.
  
  So don't let this not being rechargeable be a "negative". All in all, after returning the mx performance I thought I was going to be stuck with my older mouse until I saw this baby. Get it, you will NOT be unhappy with your selection.
  
  Otherwise, go buy the MS Performance and have fun plugging it in, and then again, and again. I figure by the time the Performance was 6 months old, the rechargeable component would be useless as I'd probably have to have it plugged in all the freakin' time (rechargeble batteries do degrade in terms of how much charge they can hold. If after a few weeks I needed to charge it every few days, I'm sure that after 6 months or a year or whatever that would be significantly less.
  
  Therefore, if you're only planning on buying for a few months usage, go for the performance. If, on the other hand, you don't want to spend $100 and get a "great mouse for 6 months" definitely get this one. You will not be unhappy with your choice.
  
  This is the one.

  Summary: This is a great Mouse. I like the fact that it has the ability to switch between 2 different speeds at the press of a button (which you can set the speeds yourself), however, I was mislead, expecting that you could increase the speed and decrease the speed more and more by pressing each button either times, not a 2 mode, 2 button system. I believe a better way to do this would be a single button press to switch between modes. That said however, I was extremely impressed with the idea of switching between click and free roll mouse wheel rolling systems. Another thing I liked was the application switch function, a really practical button, so I no longer need to use the windows key + tab combination (alike alt + tab), and neither do people who do not know about this key combination, adding functionality to the computer system of most people.
  
  This mouse I have found, as it says on the box, is quite precise, to the pixel. Also, the signal is extremely fast. I have the receiver plugged into the USB input of a thermal pad, and I still notice no difference, which I found on a wired mouse plugged directly into the computer.
  
  Also, being a gamer and game designer myself, I find the gaming mode really practical. That, and the ergonomic design make it a good mouse for big time gamers and small time gamers who do not have millions of dollars to spend on whatever they want. Also, I find that the adjustable DPI is really useful in sniping games where you need only the slightest of movements to get that perfect aim, but using the faster setting would throw you way off, I find switching to the lower setting quite useful. The speed and precision also deliver that unfair advantage in any game.
  
  Also, in the manual, it states that you can use the mouse on either 1 or 2 batteries (you can leave a single battery bay empty), regardless of which battery it is, and the mouse will still function as normal. The idea behind this is to decrease the weight of the mouse, yet another practical idea.
  
  And the Logitech Setpoint Program (disk included, no download required other than updates) is a great addition, as expected however, which allows you to change mouse specific options such as those previously mentioned.
  
  2 Things I did not like about this mouse however, were firstly, that there was nowhere for people to put the USB Reciever in this mouse, like there is in netbook mice, which is 1 thing I would expect with a non wired USB reciever for all products. Possibly one of the most logical things not included in this mouse. I also found that this mouse was only a little bit smaller. If they were to expand it to maybe 120% it's current size (also making room for the USB reciever to sit in the mouse somewhere), it would be a bit more comfortable in my hand (yes, I do have a normal sized hand).
  
  That said, I quite like this mouse, and I would reccomend it to other people. It will be the bragging point of my hardware (other than my awesome computer), showing that Logitech really has lived up to their name (obviously short for logical technology), and reputation of being the number 1 in computer peripherals and communication devices.

  Summary: I finally made the jump to the MX 1100 after my $20 MS Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 started acting up. The mouse was used with my Asus G50VT notebook running Vista Home Premium 64 bit, which travels with me. This is my third Logitech mouse and by far my favorite. I have large hands and this mouse is very comfortable. The adjustable scrolling precision/method works great and I have the stealth button programmed to flop documents. I am using this mouse in conjunction with a Logitech Access Keyboard 600, which eliminates my using the notebook's keyboard.
  I suppose one could knock the lack of rechargeability, but that really isn't an issue with me. I have a bunch of rechargeable batteries and a charger at home (for the Wii), but the expected battery life on the MX 1100 is such that it won't be a problem.
  The unit installed effortlessly and once configured, it rocks! My wife even loves it. Yes, it's a pricey mouse, but I expect several years of serviceability out of it.
  I would highly recommend this mouse, just for the comfort factor. Way to go Logitech!

  DPI too low for a true gaming mouse

  by P8riot0366 on May 9, 2010

  Pros: Good feel in the hand. Thumb button is a nice feature. Wheel ability to rapidly scroll through pages is a mixed blessing.

  Cons: DPI is only 1600, which makes it hard for fine movements while aiming in FPS games. Can be frustrating if gaming is your focus, like it is for me.
