Gadget Detective on

Gadget of the Week

Kensington PilotMouse Laser wireless mini

 

Pros

Uses laser for even greater precision and fluidity in use

Wireless operation

Stylish appearance

Good ergonomics

Easily used by right or left handed people

Two year warranty as standard

 

Cons

Consumes batteries

Plug in wireless receiver takes up a potentially valuable USB port on your computer unlike those that utilise for example Bluetooth

The 2.4GHz frequency utilised could suffer from interference to or by other 2.4Ghz devices

Non visible laser means its easy to forget mouse switched on

The MouseWorks software needed to configure the mouse isnt provided on a disk with the mouse, instead it has to be downloaded

Star Rating: 7 Stars  A good mouse, although my preference is for a good wired mouse
