    It's a MX700, using bluetooth. Used one a bit, seems slighlty worse than the MX700, better than the MS Wireless
    Now go away before I taunt you a second time.

    only thing with the mx700 is the weight, they feel real heavy and I need to replace my intelli mouse, was gonna get an mx700 but the weight of them put me off, it is the only wireless mouse with a cradle as far as I can tell and I think that is essential for a wireless mouse (no way do i wanna use batteries, do i look made of money?).


    also, this thing about ball mice being better than optical... not in a million years, even the BS2k1 had problems, I thought it was a bit of a chunky monster tbh.

    make sure you have mouseskatez and a ball from a normal cheap mouse as the balls in bs2k1's are rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishe (cos there bumpy instead of smooth like they should be)
    what model is yours?

    mine's a KRZ-2100-3

    got it for £25 in they're xmas special offer. and its got a non-bumpy ball, similar to the one in my KRZ2000-3, but the ball's not as heavy.



    def worth the money, even when they're like £60



    ocuk havce them for £47 inc,.

    MS Intellimouse Explorer (pre-v3) and the Intellimouse Optical are great

    unrealrocks, I have played loads of games with this trusty intellimouse, was never big on UT2k3 but I did play it and I cant remember thinking there was a problem with the mouse. after using optical for 2 years there is no way I could ever go back to a ball mouse for games, they stick they get dirty and they suck, even the best ball mice dont stand up to a decent optical imo.
