What is the cheapest bluetooth mouse there is right now that doesn't suck? I'll be going on a long plane ride soon and I'll need to be able to play some games while I'm in the air. I looked at Newegg, and their cheapest was $40 something. I'll probably go with that, unless someone finds a cheaper one or says that mouse sucks.
 
isnt there something about passengers not suppose to use any devices that could cause interence with the plane? i think bluetooth would fit under that catagory. they make u turn off cellphones because the frequency could mess stuff up. once i was on a plane and the captin wouldnt take off and he had to repeatedly ask someone to turn off there equipment because it was causeing interfernce. id hate to see you turn on your bluetooth mouse and the plane take a nose dive.

btw, just get a corded mouse, 'cheap bluetooth mouse' is not worth getting imo

Ya know, it's a shame that multi million dollar planes are still susceptible to trivial hand held devices.
 
Actually, that is becoming more and more of a myth. Today's wireless devices won't scramble the signals and/or the such. While I may not testify to the truth of these bluetooth devices of whether they do or not interfere signals, I do know the truth behind all this is that the airlines consider those as pre-cautionary safety issues. They even also want to avoid lawsuits just in case someone's laptop flies in the air (that's speaking of sh*t going through the ceiling though). That covers 80% of the reasons. Probably a little bluetooth here and there might cause 20% of the reasons.
