I need to buy a replacement for my borked Intellimouse Explorer. It's starting to issue double-click events, which is pretty disconcerting. At least, I _hope_ it's my mouse, otherwise my RSI has taken a nasty turn for the worse.
I'm a fan of Microsoft's mice because the devices in its Explorer range are nice and big, just like my hands (Logitech's rodents tend to be smaller). But nearly all the Microsoft mice available on Amazon.co.uk are wireless. Ditto for my other favourite site, dabs.co.uk. A quick excursion to Microsoft's corporate Mouse site reveals that, yes indeed, all the latest Explorer mice are wireless.
Despite finding the concept of an stationary, yet wireless device deeply crazy, I might just buy a wireless mouse and have done with it...life's just too short. But I think having to replace batteries every 6 months would get right on my nerves.
Any opinions? Does replacing the batteries in your wireless mouse or keyboard drive you nuts? Are there real advantages to using a wireless input device that I just cannot see?
Trivially yours, -- bOOyah
