Designed for use by people on the go, the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 is compact and comfortable, with a focus on convenience and mobility. Plus, it has a sleek and stylish design that looks great on any desktop in your home or office. Customizable buttons help you get quick access to the media, programs, and files you use most often, while 4-way scrolling takes advantage of Microsoft’s Tilt Wheel technology, letting you scroll four ways for greater efficiency and comfort. Meanwhile, the Instant Viewer function allows you to click the scroll wheel button to instantly display your open windows. Then you just point and click to select the window you want. Another feature, the Magnifier, lets you point and click to enlarge and edit details on your screen.
The Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000’s presentation controls allow you to smoothly navigate through Microsoft Office PowerPoint and other presentations from up to 30 feet away from your PC. Using the integrated Digital Ink technology, you can give your presentations more impact by highlighting vital information on screen. You can also use the device as a media remote for multimedia presentations, or to control digital entertainment from the comfort of your living room sofa.

And don’t worry, thanks to a built-in battery life indicator, you won’t get caught with a dead battery–the Battery Status LED Indicator glows red when the battery is running low. An on/off switch lets you turn your three-in-one device off to extend battery life even longer.
The Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 features 2.4 GHz Bluetooth connectivity with First Connect technology that makes it easy to connect wirelessly right out of the box. This wireless mouse technology also lets you work without worrying about tangled wires. Meanwhile, high definition laser technology offers more precision, more response, and smoother tracking during use.

Ordered this wonderful product. Confusion over shipping address caused the product to be returned. In talking with a person from INDIA, they could not get the address right.
Ordered this mouse from CDW and got it quickly and spoke with an AMERICAN in Chicago, IL. Great service from CDW; will continue to get my products from them until Amazon quits using people in India for customer service. What a joke!

I have barely had an opportunity to use this so please note that.
HOWEVER, the main thing that I have experienced is that the packaging
is the WORST that I have dealt with to simply just open.
And, ladies –
if you have long nails that you would like to keep professional while
traveling, warning! DO NOT use the traveling carry case as it was
awful to open and almost ripped my nail off a few moments before my
presentation.
Another pet peeve — words that are spelled wrong especially on
professional packaging. Remember the “i before e except after c…?”
Or just plain old spell check for Microsoft?? On the back of the package,
what is right below the little Bluetooth icon? Why, it reads “Mini
Bluetooth Reciever USB Only.” That’s right, folks, Reciever spelled
oh-so-wrong… Should be Receiver — “i before e except after c…”
Other than that, I am enjoying the gliding and smooth use, easy
point-click functionality. (After you figure out how to use it without
downloading the software…)
I tried to find a place on the Microsoft website that I could email to them and let them know of the misspelled word, but alas, I couldn’t spend the hours trying to track where to send comments to them, so I thought I would just make it very public here… Technical writers and proofreaders are not their strong suit, I guess…

This mouse is advertised as “bluetooth” but must use the supplied Microsoft dongle to function. Useless with any built in bluetooth receiver, which is the entire point of having a bluetooth capable computer!!!

I think most of the reviews hit on all the good and bad points with this mouse. I just wanted to add that I’m using it with an HP (Compaq) laptop with a very tiny (and inexpensive) Bluetooth transmitter/receiver made by Azio. I went with this low profile Bluetooth dongle because it can stay plugged into the laptop all the time (the dongle that ships with this mouse sticks out at least 2 inches). It syncs with the mouse without a problem and all the buttons / functions work great. The scroll wheel is super smooth. It’s a tad on the small size for someone with big hands. I loaded the Azio sofware first and then the mouse software. I purchased an OEM version of this mouse from an Amazon 3rd party retailer and got it for 29 bucks (about 20 less than what I see it now selling for).

Setup is a breeze, but when moving the mouse back and forth, it will skip and jump ahead, which can be VERY frustrating for precision type stuff (my batteries are 100% full at this point). I thought this was because I did not have the MS drivers. I downloaded them, installed it and now none of the other buttons are customizable.
There is no uninstaller so who know what files are wreaking havoc on my machine’s drivers.
I usually buy Logitech mice, dunno why I gave this a try but I sure am regretting it now :S
