I just had to buy a new mouse and got a wireless and really like it. Is a Logitech from Walmart. Was told by the salesman to get a cheaper one as it will last as well as the higher priced ones. Like it so far.

I have to have a mouse on mine also. but wireless is great. DS fusses cause I cant use the bilt in thingy

Buy a cordless one. They are great

Poor mouse !! But just think how much exercise your fingers got while using the touch pad.. Remember the wireless ones love to eat
batteries. That is why I don't use one. I wish you had some of
the mice we have here. My DH has a computer business and
has lots and lots of mice. He uses a wireless one and likes it.
Each to his own.
I think I'd save my $$$$ for fabric too.

The wireless mouse is the way to go. I'm sure you will love it.

I invested in the rechargeable batteries. I was already using them for my camera and had the charger. They work great and you only have to buy once. :thumbup:

I love my cordless mouse. Didn't want it when hubby picked it out and now I have a hard time using corded ones.

Is it that the button won't move the cursor up and down? If so, there's a remedy. Take a piece of white paper and lay it on a table. Then take your mouse, turn it upside down and run it up and down and back and forth on the paper fast making sure the button is rolling around while you're doing it. You'll be surprised at how much dirt comes out. The dirt prevents the button from moving the cursor. If this is the problem, this should work.
