Be warned, Express card slot needed for this mouse
I have an earlier model of this mouse, and really loved it. This model has the trendy green color which is adorable, but the only problem is that, instead of having the integrated USB key as part of the mouse, this one uses a separate Express card. So be warned, if your laptop does not have a express card slot which supports 54mm card, then please stay away. I learned my lesson today. Now I am not sure whether I should return it or just keep the new cover for my old one.

Not an USB connection
I imagine that this mouse works well due to the other reviews, but you must be aware that it doesn’t connect with the typical USB port, but an Express Card Slot. There are 5 computers in my house (one desk, 4 laptop) and none have that slot. If if you have it, the receiver is actually pretty large and even more fussy when you pull out the antenna. There is a USB connection to make the mouse wired, but it is too short to be useful. I would rather install mouse software than haved this cumbersome gadget. Also, it is not that small. More desktop size.

Great little mouse - with wireless and wired capabilities
I bought this mouse for my mom, and now I have to get another one for myself. One important note, this one uses a special card and if your laptop doesn’t have the slot for it, you won’t be able to use it. With that said, mom and I are lucky enough to have laptops that work fine with it. All you need to do is to install the card, put the batteries in the mouse and turn it on with the switch on bottom of the mouse and start up your laptop. Once it’s detected you can start using it. For those annoying times when your batteries run down you can pop off the top and pull out the cord and hook it up to the port on the card and you’ve got a wired mouse once you unwind the cord. I tested it both ways and it works great. One small detail I’ve noticed is that if you accidentally slide the on/off switch on the bottom side of the mouse, it turns it off. A quick slide of the switch turns it back on. Overall it looks well constructed and I think my mom will love using it on her new laptop.
