Smooth!
This mouse works wonders with a Mac. Its much smoother than the mighty mouse. Highly recommended!

Great mouse!
I bought this mouse thinking it is a little on the big side, but its size is just right. We love this mouse, and all its features. There is only 1 bad thing about it. It used AA batteries, which made it heavy. What were they thinking? AAA batteries all the way for wireless stuff!

We still LOVE it... A LOT! :-)

Ideal, but not realistic.
I'm going to begin by saying that I only used this mouse so that I would have the ability to scroll, not only up and down, but also left to right. For my Yearbook class at school we use Macs and the mice available have the 360 degree scrolling, so I decided to search on Amazon for one that worked with a PC. I ordered the SlimBlade and it generally worked fine, but only if you scrolled exactly in a straight line. If I tried to scroll left, but it wasn't straight to the left, then it didn't work. It only seemed to function if I used the four cardinal directions, which was silly considering most people aren't perfect.

I really liked howthe USB can be stored inside the mouse and that made it more efficient for when I traveled.

Comfortable, Convenient, and Well Designed
I was looking for a large (i.e. normal sized), low-profile, wireless mouse for my laptop -- something that fit my hand like a normal mouse, but did not create a big lump in my laptop case. The Slimblade fit the bill perfectly, and imagine my delight when I found out it also had media controls on the underside (brilliant!). No more lugging around a bulky Media Centre remote when I'm on the road.

The rollerball is very comfortable to use, and I like it much better then the typical "tilting wheel" arrangement on most mice, because you can move in any direction with the rollerball. I am not coordinated enough to roll and tilt a wheel at the same time to move diagonally on-screen. The downside to this arrangement is that it does not have the "clicks" a wheel does to provide feedback, so until you get used to it, you might find yourself accidentally flying through pages rather than scrolling a few lines at a time.

The construction is nice -- a smooth finish with enough of a "hump" to fit your palm comfortably. Like other reviews, I wish the rollerball was in fact, a trackball, but hey -- you can get that if you're willing to pay more $$. I like the concept of storing the USB wireless dongle inside the mouse -- no more lost dongles or fishing around in the laptop bag. It has the low-friction feet that you typically find on gaming mice, and the rubber sides are a nice touch, too.

All in all, a solid 5 stars for me.

very comfortable
This is great for traveling, it is very slim but easily fits the hand without undue fatigue.
