Staff assessment: 

It is ideal for home, office, and travellers as it doesn't require much space to operate and won't interfere with any typing actions. It works by strapping to the index finger with button operated by the thumb. Work on any textured surface, such as clothes, pants, just like regular optical mouses.

In real life testing, we found that it takes a while to get used to a "vertical" finger operated mouse due to the fact that most computer users have never dealt with something like this. You'll need to learn to point it at a consistent angle, and also the way to use your thumb to operate the two buttons.

Mouse resolution is good for typical operations. Don't plan to use it with photoshop or action games though -- get a full-blown mouse instead. This is supposed to be a spacer saving and novel gadget that works.

Once you get used to it though (which should be fairly quick), you'll love the little operating space it takes. A must have gadget for frequent travellers who hate tiny touchpads and even more tiny IBM track sticks. You'll find it especially useful in space-contrained situations such as travelling on buses, trains, and planes.

Pros: Like the finger moud]=se does what it says and i s nice and light weight. the dpi may not be accurate but it is high enough for gaming free shipping is the greatest and is the main reason i shop here and the prices are geeeat

Cons: cord darn well i actually ordered the corded version because the price is less than that o f the cordless model and i wanted tioo try it out before i went wireless wich i will be buying one it is sweet

Other Thoughts: I wish i didn't have to blab so much to submit a review but it is a nice fact that i can get point for almost everything i bought on the site

Bottomline: Worth the price it is almost the smallest mouse you can findd escpecially with such precision other little usb mice lack the dpi for gaming while this one exceeds the need love it love it

Pros: -Small device, incredibly portable
-Works out of the box without any annoying "Setup" process
-Easy to use once you're used to it

Cons: -Does not work on reflective surfaces
-Can become uncomfortable if worn for an extended period of time, I switch fingers when this happens

Other Thoughts: This is a great laptop mouse, if you don't particularly enjoy using a trackpad. I have a netbook, which uses an extremely small trackpad. This device makes it much easier to use the laptop.

Bottomline: Buy it and try it out. If you don't like it, it's still a neat gadget to show to friends.

Pros: - Very small
- Nice price
- Easy for use at every place

Cons: - It starts hurt my finger at the top side when I using that mouse. There are have some bad area from hard material on the place where the straps are lay and exact this area is hurting my finger.

Other Thoughts: At first moment it was hard to use it but after a few minutes I really get accustomed to work easy with that pretty mouse.

Bottomline: The laser is working at all time and this make some troubles to work with it in any office places. I mean when you writing on your keybord or make other activities the laser is flashing at all time all around and this can make confusion for people around you.

Pros: Très léger, fonctionne parfaitement sur des couvertures, un pantalon en toile ou un jeans. Il suffit juste de brancher le cable et ça marche.
Le cable en lui-même est recouvert de nylon (comme des lacets de chaussures de sport), ce qui est beaucoup plus agréable sur la main ou le bras qu'un cable en plastique/caoutchouc

Cons: Dommage qu'elle ne soit pas sans-fil

Other Thoughts: il y a deux "tiges" en plastique qui ressortent sur le coté droit de l'appareil ; très pratique pour le stabiliser avec le majeur, mais on se demande un peu si c'est bien à ça que ça sert : on dirait presque que c'est prévu pour s'accrocher à un support qui n'est pas fourni.

Bottomline: C'est excellent, je peux enfin travailler avec mon portable sur les genoux sans devoir utiliser le touchpad intégré.
