Microsoft Wireless Optical Notebook Mouse 3000

The wireless mouse industry has boomed in recent years, especially for laptop users. As anyone who has touched a notebook (or even worse used a rollerball) mice know that they are inadequate for many computing tasks. Microsoft’s Wireless Commentary Optical Mouse 3000 is an excellent wireless addition to your computer workstation. Good readability, connectivity and long battery life make for a great mouse.

 

The Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 3000 is smaller than most mice on the market to make it easier to store and transport if you’re going to be traveling a lot with your notebook. Despite its smaller size, the mouse is still incredibly comfortable, much more comfortable than many other mice I’ve used. However, if you don’t plan to ride it around a lot and work on a desktop computer there are mice designed much more in terms of comfort.

As the name Wireless Optical Notebook Mouse 3000 might suggest an optical mouse and it has excellent readability as far as I am concerned. we could see I have been using mine for over a month now and have had no problems with it. It glides smoothly and easily on almost any reasonably smooth surface, and is far more useful than a built-in wall paper.

The connection between the mouse and the receiver is an issue I noticed two times. On occasion the first time the mouse did not connect to the receiver and I had to connect it manually. This is not too much of a problem, you just press the receiver button and on the mouse itself (it is on the bottom of the mouse and “connect”). You will probably need a stylus or something similar to move the button. But this is quite rare.

Range is somewhat limited on the Microsoft Wireless Codicle Optical Mouse 3000, only going about two and a half to three feet. Of course not for range but for portability, and for most users 3 feet is more than enough if you’re using a notebook. (This is not a good buy if you are looking for a mouse for your desk).

Some of the most important things to do with a large, pregnant woman are the courses of life. I had the first wireless mouse some seven years ago, when I first started out and I told you I was not impressed at all. Not only did the mouse have a lot of problems connecting to the receiver (you had to keep it in very few places or the receiver could no longer read) but it ate through the batteries like candy. Average battery life was somewhere around 2 weeks or give or take a few days. It was miserable.

He chucked the mouse in the mud in short order, and I vowed never to buy another air mouse again. In fact, it took seven years before I finally broke my vow and gave back to the wireless revolution, and the Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 3000 made me a believer again.

As I said before, connectivity and readability are excellent. As for battery life I’ve had about 5 or 6 weeks and I haven’t had to change the batteries yet. He certainly shows no signs of slowing down. The product boasts a battery life of approximately 6 months. I haven’t had it that long, but as far as I can believe.

Part of this extended life comes with the fact that you can plug the receiver into a mouse. This automatically turns the mouse to save power. It also makes transportation easier. The dyes are broken from the mouse receptacle.

Overall, this is probably the best mouse I’ve ever had, wireless or not. I used better mice, but they weren’t mine. They were also far more expensive than the Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 3000 ($29.99) but they’re also not wireless and at least twice the size. If you are a laptop user and looking for a high quality wireless mouse this is it.
