Logitech MX1000 laser mouse review

already out of stock at the egg lol.

i was wondering, does the mx1000 leave a red dot on the surface like a laser pointer?
and in the review you didnt say much about the bad things... are there any?

this was posted on another fourm...

  • Notice that while scrolling in IE6 (WinXP SP2) that both the Favorites and the actual webpage would scroll at the same time.
  • There's a slight "hiccup" in response that'll move a half inch or so down from where it should have been randomly. (happens mainly while fps gaming)

can you comment on any of this?

Thanks in advanced
:cool:
 
It does not leave a red dot or anything else visible underneath the mouse.

Someone else must have copied and pasted that exact quote you did at the Warp2search.net site, because I've answered that same thing.

"Just tried it, and no it does no such thing in IE6 with WinXPSP2, at least, not on mine. Mine does not hiccup at all, but I don't know what kind of surface you were using it on. Perhaps it is your setup because not one person I've heard using this mouse has had those issues so far. Then again, maybe you got a bad one."
 
$80 for a mouse? Thats too damn expencive...my current mouse gets the job done for free. But that is a sweet mouse, if it was more like 30 i would get it.
 
No confirmation or denial yet if the keyboard from a Duo works with this receiver. You may get lucky.
 
As far as performance, it is identical to the MX700 during transmission, since it transmits using the same 'FastRF' technology. No lag, no skipping, and now hyper accurate."

That worried me. there IS lag and there IS skipping. Not a lot of it, but it's still noticable when compared to a good corded optical mouse. :-/ What the hell does accuracy matter at this point? I'm looking to replace my mx700, but I'll have to try the mx1000 out before I buy it.

When I bought my MX700, I wasn't sure, but I thought it was a LITTLE choppier and laggier than my previous corded MS optical mouse. I used the MX700 for a few months, but one day my batteries ran out and I wanted to keep playing this game, so I whipped out my 3 button MS optical mouse. It was incredibly smooth and responsive compared to the MX700. The improvement in my ut2k4 aim was almost unbelievable. I'm still using the MX700 because of the buttons. I can't live withouth the back/forward buttons now, and I make use of the three buttons by the wheel, too.

I'm praying for a corded version.
 
Definately going to get this mouse. But I'll wait until the price drops a bit, since my MX700 is superb.

Did you get a defective mouse or something? Mine never lags or skips...maybe you need to charge the batteries..?
 
FastRF refreshes mouse position at the same speed USB polls input devices (125 times per second) If there is lag or skipping then you ethier have a defective mouse/base or there is something interfereing with it.

Change the channel or move it away from your monitor. And remember the mouse only has a 6ft range., past this are you will get skips.
