Targus Wireless Mouse [Posted on 2007-12-16] I have had this mouse for quite some time.. I have had 2 basic issues with it... Firstly, it does not always sync with the usb unit. I have to turn the mouse on and off many times before I am able to get the mouse to sync. My second issue is that the battery life is not very good at all, I am finding that I have to replace the 2-AAA batteries every 8 to 10 days.
I have other brands on my other computers and the batteries will last for months.
Its okie for the price [Posted on 2007-12-30] When i got this mouse, it took me almost an hour to make this mouse work in my Windows XP environment. The document is insufficient (both on the box and website) as it does not explain how to configure the mouse for the first time when the receiver is plugged into the system. there is a tiny reset button on the receiver which needs to reset after pluging this device to the system for the first so that it recognizes the wireless mouse and this button is not easily noticeable for the first time unless you thoroughly look into it. The lack of documention from targus pissed me of as i have to google the information for almost an hour. I believe lack of proper documentation is the reason i find lot of people are not able to configure this device for the first time and they have to return it back. otherwise i did not have any problems as other reviewers and i have been using this for few days at home and work without any problem.
buttons stick [Posted on 2008-02-05] I'm disappointed in this remote. It worked well at first. After a few months, when I press the forward button, it would stick and forward through 2-20 images in rapid sequence. Also the USB receiver is quite bulky.
Works just like a charm [Posted on 2008-07-05] If you need a remote device to advance your powerpoint screens with a laser pointer, this is for you. The "mouse" use is pretty much useless, but left and right clicks work fine..
Bad quality clicker, big mistake to buy one [Posted on 2008-09-17] The pointer was disappointment from the opening of the package, feels so flimsy, and switches and buttons so out of place. After turning on, the normal assumed button function didn't work on Windows XP. Advancing Power Point slides required "left" button, reverse used "bottom" button. Expected arrangement was forward with "right" button and reverse with "left" button. The mouse pointer absolutely useless, can see where it moves. Laser pointer just a battery drain, it so week, so no one can see it on bright projection screen anyway. And finally after four times use it QUIT, started to shine laser all the time and not responding to clicks at all. Now need to find out how to get money back without that plastic packaging, that must be destroyed to get it out.
