mx1000 charger and connectivity question

[Terr0r]

simply put, is it bluetooth? or is it just optical. thanks

EDIT: ok so i found out its not bluetooth, its RF (?). Is there any way that I can use this mouse on a laptop without carrying around the charger? thanks

nope. the mouse will need its charger because its also the reciever as well.

MX1000 was specifically made with desktops in mind. If you want a wireless mouse for a laptop to be carried around, what you'll want to look for is one of those little deals that have a receiver that just uses no cables or anything and sticks right into a USB port. Anything else is just going to end up being inconvenient for you like that MX1000. I don't know what brand or anything, but, my mother found this tiny little wireless mouse that runs on a single AA battery and the receiver for it is just this little flashdrive sized thing that sticks out of the usb port.

Personally though, what I'm using on my laptop is a little mouse walmart sells which, while it may be wired, it's made so you don't need a desk at all. It sort of looks like a blue trigger with a ball on the top. You hold it between your forefinger and thumb, roll the ball and click the middle/right buttons with your thumb and the primary button is a trigger you can press with your forefinger. It's not the most accurate thing in the world, so obviously no gaming mouse, but, very handy when you need to carry a laptop around.
