    Just take a look in Future Shop or Best Buy. I got The MX Revolution, although it's $130.

    for bluetooth the mogo mouse cannot be beaten. size is perfect, fits INSIDE the notebook. functionality is perfect, can double as a media remote, battery is perfect, charges inside the notebook.

    conclusion, perfect notebook mouse.

    I bought a MX Revolution mouse from Staples Business Depot back in March. It worked great for about 2 months, then the right mouse button started sticking... bad.

    After about another month or so the right mouse button was totally useless. I contacted Logitech support, gave them the serial # of the mouse, info from where I bought it, etc. They contacted me back saying that the mouse I bought was Refurbished and they couldn't honor the 3 year warranty on the mouse and would have to take it back to Staples. Great.

    Contacted Staples, they said I'd have to go through the manufacturer to get the warranty. So now I am completely screwed and out over $100. I emailed Logitech saying I'd never buy another one of their products again because, for me, the big selling point was the 3 year manufacturers warranty.
