This is an excellent mouse. It feels very solid in the hand, and tracks perfectly so that there is no "jitter" when moving the cursor, as is the case with some wireless mice. This one installed in seconds with no additional software needed. Simply insert the nano receiver in a USB port, push the "pairing" button on the bottom of the mouse, wait for Windows to install drivers, and the mouse is ready to go. There were no issues about "pairing" the mouse.

This mouse has a pleasing, solid feel to it with a pleasant rubber surface on top. The mouse wheel turns with just about the right amount of resistance, and it takes firm (but not excessive) pressure to push the mouse wheel down push-button fashion to activate the lock. Some mice require so little pressure that it is easy to do this inadvertently when working the mouse wheel. A nice touch is that the nano-receiver can be stored inside the mouse between the batteries for transport or storage, although normally it will simply stay in your computer's USB port. My only real nit with this mouse is that it uses AAA batteries rather than AA batteries, which would give longer life between replacements. This is a minor criticism.
