      ordered one of these which should be here today:Targus Bluetooth Comfort Laser Mouse: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories

      Its a full size BT mouse
      This one is much better and definitely a keeper. Only bad thing is the lack of a back button.

        Not bluetooth (unless it's on a Mac!), but I've had the Evoluent VerticalMouse recommended from a posture point of view.

          Targus mouse has gone: Main probs with the it were:
          • Occasional disconnections requiring me to go messing in the Bluetooth settings
          • Right button never seemed to work properly
          • Mouse action would occasionally go very jerky if left unused for more than about 10 minutes
          • Battery life was a bit crap although that might be a common feature of all Bluetooth mice


          It has been superseded by this:

          The blue windows logo is a button with up and down swipe action.
          First impressions are:
          • Nice size and feels very comfortable
          • Silky smooth when being pushed around the desk (no mousemat)
          • Connected very easily
          • So far it works flawlessly
          • It vibrates to confirm a swipe action
          • Separate on/off switch and BT reconnect button (The Targus had a single button which had to be held for a set number of seconds to turn on/off or reconnect and then some flashing lights. Bit of a ball ache really)

            I for one appreciate the update. For now I'll stick with my Logitech wireless (with dongle which I know you didn't want). Superb battery life (about a year), flawless operation, no disconnects. I have two of these in close proximity for 2 separate PCs and neither interferes with the other.

            IMHO you seem to be prepared for a lot of hassle just to avoid the small sticky out bit on a USB port.

            Pls let us know how you get on with the MS mouse.

              I've never felt the need for a non wired mouse, they do the same job are less likely to go wrong and usually have better response times

              And if you do any gaming, wireless is horrible

                I like one of these. Folds flat and has tiny dongle.
