I just want to thank Hashem for letting me get a new mouse. It is amazing; it glides smoothly, doesn't jerk, lets me click anything immediately, and goes in all directions as I wish. In the past 5 minutes alone since I got it, it really made my computer use a lot more enjoyable.

May you all experience such joys.

Almost- but this one is all black, and has no text on the back.

Optical I assume? (keep the eye clean with a q-tip [alcohol if you have on hand too] and it'll be even better).

No. Try the pen.

I got fedup with wireless and have gone back to a corded optical mouse by logitech. Wireless can lose the signal.

What like a Wacom? I was going to buy one when I could have used it in photoshop and illustrator at one point, but I don't need one now. Is that what you use?

It shouldn't if your base is close enough. It has never happened to me while I was at my desk.

That bec. your hand blocks the antenna (I know- beats me why they place it strategically where your hand goes). There are hacks all over the internet to boost signal strength (up to 9 ft. away iirc).
