TruckWEB Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hey! I just got my MX1000, very nice mouse, wireless and as fast as a corded mouse! The laser... wow! Much better than normal optical mouse. I don't game very much but Photoshop is better, zooming, razor sharp. The only software problem that I have is the Forward/Back and scrool wheel button that don't work with FireFox 1.0PR, they do work with IE.... Paid : 95$ ($Can). :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SYPHADIUS Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 Hey guys, I bought mine yesterday... and to be honest I was a bit disappointed. It tracks very well, but every so often it will break left and get sort of stuck until I move side to side hard. At other times it will skip top side and I have to move back down to get to my position... its sort of erratic. My other issue is that the forward and back buttons don't work in MAXTHON browser. They work in I.E, though. I guess the other deceiving point is the install setup... it doesn't install in the "mouse" control panel, but its like a separate engine working the mouse. Anyhow does anybody have a suggestion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KayMan2K Posted October 8, 2004 Share Posted October 8, 2004 I guess everyone is done chatting about the MX1000. I love the product and want to my hands on one... the only thing stopping me is that I would prefer a bluetooth mouse. Agilent + Logitech got a nice product there.

Anyhow does anybody have a suggestion? Try using a different surface for your mouse. If that doesn't work, exchange it. For the buttons, read the thread. I posted a how-to earlier.

Hypoxiaicon Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Is the wobble an actual design fault? Excellent battery Life. Mine lasted 5 days before it died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dL Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 MX510 does me well for now. Maybe in the near future, I may consider this one. dL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruckWEB Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Because I'm one of those lamers that don't trust a cordless mouse :D ;) Beleive me, this is THE mouse you want to buy. It's as fast as USB corded, it's razor sharp very good for games and Photoshop. It's rechargable with the mouse dock and it last for more than 5 days, depending on usage. It's not just hype, the laser does a better job. No more mouse pad for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypoxiaicon Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Because I'm one of those lamers that don't trust a cordless mouse :D TRUST ME. Everything that was said against wireless mice is obosolete in this. This mouse is perfect. Ive had it for 6 days and its not done a thing wrong. There is no reason for Optical or Corded Mice anyway ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaCypher Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 There seem to be a few issues with this mouse. Some people report their mouse has an uneven bottom, so that it wobbles even on a flat surface. Also, another issue is a delay that people have once you pick up the mouse and recenter it on your mousing surface. Apparently this delay is only about a half second but its enough to cause issues while gaming. A lot more info is available in this thread: http://3dgpu.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=310&st=580.

Toxicfume Veteran Posted October 10, 2004 Veteran Share Posted October 10, 2004 I'll stil lwait for the wired version ;) Can't be arsed with batteries. Either that or I'll wait for a laser mouse with a pad that recharges the batteries in the mouse via some metal conductor on the mouse ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Posted October 10, 2004 Share Posted October 10, 2004 Some do have the wobble. The first one I bought was pretty bad. Took it back...second one I got wasn't that bad, so I just stuck a pad from my old mouse on the bottom. No problems now. Seriously...if the delay REALLY bothers you, you don't know how to use a mouse. You have to set the mouse down pretty fast and pretty hard in order to see the delay. If you use a mouse this way in the first place, NO mouse will last long through that kind of beating. IMO opinion...and I play quite a bit of FPS games, the delay thing is WAAAY overblown.

Or are you just assuming that because they did that before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
