Ballistics Report

Pros

• Great ergonomic feel, weight and performance all around

• Accurate when working and gaming, plus no 'wireless' lag

• Sensor tracks well on almost any surface, including glossy and dark surfaces

• Incredible wireless range

• 8 customizable buttons; thumb buttons placed high enough so that it doesn't get pressed accidentally

• Side-to-side Scroller buttons increase efficiency when used correctly

• On/Off switch to conserve power when traveling and keeping the mouse from accidentally waking up

• MX1000 works without having the AC adapter plugged in, reducing the 'wire mess' when not charging

Cons

• Slightly larger than what is comfortable for medium-sized-adult hands, making Auto-scroll UP button hard to reach

• Annoying install issue where Real Player and Windows Media Player 9 options are forcibly 'checked' to be installed

• Higher price than other similarly-equipped optical mice

• Not made for travelers with laptops (bulky dock and external power AC adapter)

• Lefties should stay away
