The Logitech is a bit smaller and more convenient to carry around, but the I like the scroll button on the MM.

As far as performance goes, they behave equally; no jittery, stuttery, staggery, motion at all with the wireless MightyMouse. I use the BT version with a first-generation MacBook Pro and the wired version with an Intel CoreDuo iMac.

I have a MM question, has anyone figured out how to OPEN up the MM, so as to be able to restore the function of the Little Ball in ALL directions. Mine now will only operate in "Down", "Right", and "Left", but not "Up". I have tried everything to correct this, but haven't been successful, with anything externally applied. Bruce in alaska Signatureadd a <2> before @ Bruce, There's no good way to open the MM. The only soluton I've found to fix the track ball is to press it down and blast compressed air into ot as best you can. The stuff that comes in a can works for me. >> + Biff Debris <biff(underscore)debris(at)mac(dot)com>: >> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Bruce in alaska >> + Biff Debris <biff(underscore)debris(at)mac(dot)com>: >> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Bruce in alaska How to clean your Mighty Mouse Although your Mighty Mouse never needs to be fed or watered, you may occasionally find that you need to clean it. If your Mighty Mouse is covered in fingerprints or its surface has become soiled, it can be gently wiped with a clean lint-free cloth. If necessary, moisten the cloth using only water, making sure not to oversaturate it. Be aware that the mouse contains electronic components that may be damaged if water drips from the cloth into the mouse via the seam around the scroll ball or around its underside. The same procedure can be used to clean the scroll ball on your Mighty Mouse if it has become discolored or dirty. Use a clean lint-free cloth lightly moistened with water. Wipe the ball and the surrounding area, making sure to rotate the ball itself to ensure complete coverage. If the scrolling feels rough or if the scroll ball isn't scrolling up, down, or side-to-side, hold the mouse upside-down and roll the ball vigorously while cleaning it to help dislodge any particles that may have collected on the internal hardware. >> + Biff Debris <biff(underscore)debris(at)mac(dot)com>: >> [quoted text clipped - 16 lines] > > Bruce in alaska When mine does that I simply invert the mouse, push down hard on the scroll ball, and roll it back and forth a few times. Whatever was caught in there gets rubbed off.

It is heavy. I have resorted to running it on Energizer e Lithium AAs, which are much lighter than any other kind of battery. Expensive, but they do seem to last longer than other batteries. Unfortunately, they are not rechargeable. SignatureWaddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |
