    i just bought a dell E1505 and i have been looking for a wireless mouse. my laptop has bluetooth capabilities so i would like to use that if i could, im not a big fan of having a usb hookup sticking out of my computer. im hoping to get this below $50 but i could go a little over. i would prefer a regular sized mouse as well rather than a small one but both will do. any help would be great thanks

    I have the V270, and it's nice. I paid 49.99 at Office Max, and the only thing with it is that Media Direct does not recognize it. That doesn't have anything do do with the mouse itself, but the way MediaDirect acts. It doesn't recognize BT Mice. It does recognize the MCE Remote control though.

    I've only had it for a week, so I don't know yet... I'm sorry. I haven't changed them yet, so that's good.
