Customer Feedback

So far I really like this mouse. I haven’t used it in a presenter capacity, but when I tested it, it seemed to be great. It’s extremely comfortable to use as a regular mouse, and it has great sensitivity and connection, as compared to other wireless mouses I have used in the past. The bluetooth connection is fantastic and easy to setup. This mouse does everything it claims without any problems!!! A great buy!!!
This is a easy to setup mouse from Microsoft. It comes with a optional bluetooth adapter which you can hook it to one of your USB ports in case your PC doesn’t have in built bluetooth. The installation was a breeze on Vista/XP since they had inbuilt drivers for it.

The mouse starts working automatically if used with the bundled adapter. Otherwise you need to pair the mouse manually. I tried using this mouse on Linux(Ubuntu 9.04). But doesn’t seem to work on the first go. Need to do some tinkering to get it work!!!

Customer Feedback

Razer Orochi is simply an amazing mouse. It may be a bit small for some, but as a notebook mouse, it’s perfect. The bluetooth connectivity is so smooth and precise, I have yet found the need to use the cable connection. It’s designed almost perfect. The batteries give it a perfect weight. And using it for design (I’m a heavy photoshop user) it’s just pixel perfect.
The Bad: Poor Mac Drivers. The mouse werks perfect, with the exception of the additional buttons.
