    These are crap.

    First off, they run on AA batteries. And my mouse is not happy with NiMh rechargables. I am not joking that a pair of typical Energizer or Duracells will only last two weeks. Seriously. It burns through batteries that fast.

    Second, the scroll wheel is not 'click' dependent. You can switch between free and clicky, but when clicky it will still scroll up or down with the slightest pressure. The clicking just inhibits th wheel, it doesn't regulate a movement to a click. I have never had a scrolling wheel have this problem before.

    Third, I frequently have to unplug/plug my USB adapter in because after waking from sleep the mouse scrolling will drop to a fraction. When set to 1 click = 3 lines, it will change to 1 click = 1/2 of a line. You have to unplug/plug it to reset. Serious PITA.

    The mouse does track well and has good range, but everything else goes to show how cheap and crappy Logitech has gotten in their Chinese manufacturing and design. I was really expecting better from a 'premium' mouse (I paid over $50). You have been warned.
