Saitek Optical Notebook Mouse
and Saitek Photo Mouse

Saitek has an optical mouse for your notebook for under $20. Laptops usually don't have a good surface or mouse pad to use so a good optical sensor is a necessity. The 800 dpi optical sensor in the Saitek mouse worked smoothly.

Saitek Optical Notebook Mouse

It is smaller than a desktop mouse so it's easier to pack and travel with. Kids and others with smaller hands will like it too.

It has all the features you would expect - Works for lefties and righties, 3 button, scroll wheel, USB, no set up required. Works with Windows 2000 and up and Mac OS X.

It comes in 19 colors like hot pink, yellow, orange and lime green. I like the bottom of the mouse which is clear so you can see the electronics.

Saitek also has a Photo Mouse that doubles as a picture frame. You can choose any photo (or logo or other graphic) you want and print it out. Then use the included template to cut it to the right size and pop it in the mouse case.

The image will appear at the bottom half of the mouse and when the Photo Mouse is plugged into a PC or a Mac, the photo is illuminated by a white spotlight. You can change the picture whenever you want.

Saitek Photo Mouse

It too has all the features you would expect - Works for lefties and righties, 3 button, scroll wheel, USB, no set up required. Works with Windows 2000 and up and Mac OS X. It's a desktop mouse so is standard size. I saw them for about $15 on Amazon.
