I'm mostly happy with this mouse.

In hand, the mouse is comfortable. I have small hands and was concerned with the size of the mouse and it's shape. But it fits better to hand than the standard mouse shape. Also my wrist rests more comfortably than with other mice. This was the prime criteria and was met.

As a laser mouse, it seems to be more precise than optical mice. At the same time it's not overly selective of the surface it's gliding over. I like this.

The USB transceiver does stick out from my laptop. But as I use this mouse as my desktop mouse (i.e. at home mouse) and my laptop is docked, this isn't an issue. The transceiver is in a side USB port next to the docking plug. The docking plug sticks out further than the transceiver and I think a monitor plug would be about the same. The transceiver is smaller in size than many flash drives.

I was a little worried that it is rechargable. But that's now one of my favorite features. It recharges quickly and easily. The recharging base sits out of the way on my desk. When the mouse needs recharging, I just set it upon the base. There aren't any cords or wires or anything to connect to the mouse in order to recharge it. Just position it on the base and it recharges. As for how it holds a charge, I fully charged it when I received it on March 27th. And I'm doing a full charge today, April 11th. I use my computer more than 8 hours a day. So I'm happy with this.

The magnifier is a nice feature. I use it more often than I would have expected. But I'm unhappy with the button's position on the mouse as it's awkward to click without moving the mouse...which affects the magnification. That feature needs improvement.

The wheel scrolls easily and smoothly.
