Bluetooth Mouse Review

This one is brand new as of summer 2009 and it shows some improvements over the older models which is always nice to see. The general design and shape is still pretty much the same as usual but it does have a slightly sleeker look than say the older V470 model. Its the typical dark grey color and it has laser tracking technology, which makes it very smooth and precise on a wider variety of surfaces than just an optical mouse, including wood grain or polished tables and desk tops. However, laser mice still do not work on glass or mirrored surfaces, so if you have one of those you need to use a mouse pad or something similar. It also has five programmable buttons which is nice and its fairly easy to setup and configure with the included software. The main upgraded feature that Logitech highlights with this bluetooth mouse is the improved, larger scroll wheel. They call it "hyper-fast scrolling" and it basically makes it easier and more convenient to browse through long documents and web pages, which can make hours of web surfing more productive and, dare we say, more fun. The M555b has an integrated low battery indicator and a sleep mode feature to help extend battery life. The actual part number for this mouse is 910-001265 and the retail price is $59.99.
