    Well, I've never liked them because of the position your arms have to be in to type - it's like eating with fecking chopsticks.

    Anyway - the one I have on my supposedly top of the range Sony Vaio Ultrabook is particularly bad. Left button click keeps getting stuck down such that I can't do a left mouse click or it gets stuck after doing a mouse click such that I find myself in permanent drag and drop mode and I unwittingly move stuff (particularly in Windows Explorer) never to be found again.

    Even when it's working the left clicks are interpreted as right clicks half the time meaning I'm spending all my time dismissing unwanted context menus.

    What are wireless mice like these days? Had one a few years ago and it was ******* useless....
