Kensington PocketMouse

 

The PocketMouse is great for travelers who don't want to use a trackpad. It even makes a decent desktop mouse, although we'd suggest something larger for stationary machines.

Small, portable size ; built for right and left handed users ; great software

Software must be downloaded from website ; limited OS X support

Pretty Decent

 

I've had this mouse for over 4 years and it's still working fine. It's pretty reliable for its price

BUT! Every now and then, my mouse pointer spazzes out and jerks rapidly for a couple seconds. Even with a mousepad it still does this. It's really annoying and has caused me many deaths in my gaming sessions

OK

 

If had this mouse for 3-4 years it hasnt started to fail me until the last few months. been very good. its a very good mouse for a laptop. get it if u like it.

Light ; Compact ; Pretty Sensitive

Pads on the bottom rub off when not using a mouse pad ; Scroll button isnt as sticky as it needs to be. (when you scroll up or down sometimes it goes halfway then goes back) ; Short Cable for a Desktop in my case ; Buttons start to stick after a while...

Fantastic mouse, Fantastic Price.

 

Gotta love Newegg's delivery time. Very satisfied.

Sensitive mouse, Very cheap, dependable. works Instantly in Linux, and ms windows. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND

It takes alittle getting used to, being so small. Its quite natural other then the obvious size constraint. Not really a con I guess, however it is Extremely sensitive, I had to ultimately turn the sensitivity down a few notches. great buy none the less

Small

 

Geez. Newegg got it to me in 2 days! I hooked it into my new mini laptop (Cloudbook), and the linux operating system picked it up immediately. Just what I wanted to take on my European Vacation. There are probably others that are similar, but the...

Small. Easy to fit into shirt pocket. Works just as advertised

None that I can see

Functions good, just really small

 

If someone really wants a tiny mouse that is inexpensive and functions well, this would make a good choice.

As far as functionality is concerned, this mouse performs well ; I bought it for a Mac and all buttons and functions work fine with Leopard (OS 10.5). True plug and play

When I first used this mouse the first thing I noticed was that it was just uncomfortably small. I have larger than normal hands, so that could be the reason ; I know this is picky, but the left/right click buttons are a little stiff

An Excellent & Inexpensive Buy

 

Great response, feels great in hand (even though it's ridiculously small), plug it in and go.

The USB cord seems somewhat "flimsy" or cheap, but that's ultimately outshined by the mouse's performance.
