🖱️ Optical Mouse 3000 - Milk Chocolate by Microsoft - Enhance your Wireless Notebook Experience Review

I've been using this mouse at work for a while and finally decided to write a review. I don't know what exactly is going on, but the responsiveness of this mouse is driving me nuts. I often move the mouse and the cursor doesn't move at all. Then I move the mouse again and the cursor flies past where I wanted to click. Then when I finally get to the button I want to click, the mouse clicks are unresponsive. from a tech and I've tried: rebooting, different USB ports (some directly on the laptop…

I've had several optical mice in the past, some wired and some wireless. I've owned them in multiple sizes, from full size ergonomic models to micro models. This is my favorite of all. First, it's the right size. I am male and micro mice are so small that it is difficult for me to work with them. But I'm also a teacher and need a smaller portable mouse. This one fits my hand very well. Second, the function is very accurate. What I mean is that the pointer doesn't slow down or lag. Some optical…

WARNING! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 - Slate I originally bought this mouse because prior to my purchase of wireless mice, a wired receiver on the desktop didn't need to be too far from the mouse. This setup was a little unreliable as the mouse would not function properly if something was physically placed between the mouse and the receiver. (Why would anyone expect this to happen on a cluttered desk?). I liked the features of this device. The…

I have both Winter Blue and Slate versions of this Microsoft wireless mouse. Just in case you were wondering, they are identical except for the colors so you can choose which one is on sale. Of course, if you need two wireless mice, it's best to choose one of each color. This way you can be sure that their wireless transmitters won't interfere with each other when using both mice in close proximity. What surprised me is that this wireless mouse consumes very little power in the low-power…

I have used this particular mouse for many years - it is virtually indestructible. However, the wireless USB receiver is large and the scrolling speed on long web pages is a bit slow, so I recently bought a Logitech Wireless Mouse M325 with scrolling for the web. Let me tell you, if you use PowerPoint as much as I do, scrolling through web pages quickly with a Logitech mouse is a disaster. The wheel is so sensitive that it will constantly flip you from one PP sheet to the next if you just want…

The only downside I have is that it comes with a Microsoft label. Otherwise, I swear by this mouse for my mobile computing life. Pros: 1) Soft/light left/right clicks. Other "famous brand" mice give you that annoying loud "click" you hear and take a lot more effort. This is the only portable mouse with "ThinkPad Buttons" quality. Think of it as a mouse equivalent to ThinkPad keyboards. 2) Ideal weight and balance. Not difficult and not too easy. Pefect.3) Contour/shape for small to medium…

About a year ago, after my own HP a1440n wired desktop mouse breathed its last breath, I started using the wireless optical mouse that came with my HP dv9000 laptop. It was such a nice change not to have to worry about the cord the original mouse had when it pulled my jewelry and paper boxes from their neatly folded spots on my desk. Needless to say, I got a little spoiled with this optical wireless mouse and actually forgot that this optical mouse was just a "stunt double" until I got a…

Feels and looks like cheap plastic. The instructions didn't make it clear where to put the battery and I broke one of the top pieces trying to figure out a way to locate it, but it still worked, at least for a while. One day it suddenly stopped working. I thought the thing was broken for me and gave it a bad review, but I'm updating my review because it turns out something is wrong with my laptop and it's not the mouse's fault. After repairing my laptop, the mouse worked again. In my case, she…
