Mouse for kids

 

I got v. 2.0 of this mouse. It has short (2 ft) cord.

It works properly

The mouse is way too small to be comfortable. I can not imagine adult using this mouse. However, 5 year old kids like it

Versatile

 

I have bought two of these. One for my laptop, and one for my desktop ; Everyone complains about the cable length. I do not ; I just keep the twist tie that came with the mouse to begin with. I keep the cable folded up and then I plug it into my laptop...

Maybe the cord and mouse wheel colors could be changed, but I am not that picky

Nothin' Wrong with this Mouse

 

One day I needed a mouse. Since this was the least expensive, I bought this. Since then I've started gaming and this mouse has impressed me. I'm able to keep 2:1 K/D ratio on Call of Duty 4, but then again that game is just spray and pray. On a game...

Long cord ; The small size subconsciously trains your hand to use the claw grip

I have to use a mouse pad ; I mean having a mouse pad isn't a big deal, but I'd rather reduce clutter and just use the mouse on my desk. Unfortunately when I do that, the cursor skips around the screen and stuff

Mini 9 assistant

 

Small size for travel. All the features of a full size Microsoft optical mouse. Works great

Would like to have a shorter cord. 18 inches would be adequate and easier to pack in the my Mini 9 case
