Mouse Design
Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse for Notebooks is available in the variety of colors. The mouse is fairly small, sizing up at 4 inches long, 2 inches wide and an inch high. The mouse has a silver finish around the top, with a sleek black design on the bottom. The black has a very "tech" feel, it is very subtle and appeasing to look at. As you can see in the image below, there is a nice silver " Logitech" logo on the front of the mouse with sleek styling. And with Logitech's Fast RF cordless technology, it delivers all the convenience and freedom of cordless, with no compromise in performance.
Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse has two buttons and a scroll wheel (which also services as a button), so if you depend on a ton of programmable buttons this one has 30of the most common applications available. The scroll wheel is solid black slightly raised above the two buttons. The wheel has a nice tight grip to it. The Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse is ambidextrous, so not only right hand users will prefer to use this model, lefties will also benefit from this as well. The size makes this mouse easy to use for long periods of times, without irritating the wrist (something I particularly find important). The package come with a small carrying pouch to transport the mouse and USB connector as seen below

Installation:

It is disappointing that this mouse does not have any extra buttons other than your regular two on the top. The Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse is very stylish and comes in 4 color choices. And for a wireless product this mouse has quite a range and I would strongly recommend this to anyone with a laptop. The mouse scroll button has over 30 settings so it has an option for most any user.
