Request: Inexpensive Small Wireless Mouse for Netbook

    I'm looking for a small wireless mouse for my Samsung NC 10

    I was thinking of the Logitech V220 but I cannot see it for less than €30 (from Argos), can't find anywhere selling it for significantly less including delivery.

    Would rather pay less than this, if I were to pay €30 I'd want something with a shorter USB receiver, as the Logitech one sticks out quite a bit.

    MX2.co.uk have one for £6.99 delivered but I can't see any reviews on it and I suspect a wireless device at that price wont be great.

    If anyone has any suggestions I'd appreciate it.

    Thanks

    I'd suggest you look into a bluetooth mouse and get one of those really tiny usb bluetooth devices that are just the size of the plug.

    Less that €2 delivered!

    And then have a look for a bluetooth mouse...

    Thanks, would rather not go bluetooth route as having it on eats the Samsungs batteries.

    Appreciate the suggestion though

    In my local Tesco Store last week I spotted a wireless keyboard and mouse for approx €9. Reduced by either 50% or 75%
    This might work for you.

    Thanks, the Logitech is available for 18.50 from eBay, might just go for that.

    Spotted this wireless mouse with the mini dongle on ebay for £11.87 inc. delivery, it might fit the bill.

    Thanks guys, I got the Logitech Z220 in Argos for €27 today, I know its a good mouse so I'll deal with paying a bit more I suppose.

    Peats have a new Logitech one for €19.99 that looks good too, looked a bit bigger than the one I got though.

    Thanks again for all the help.

    I've used the wired version of this but the link is to the wireless one.

    What I liked most about it is that it has a built-in magnifier button which is very customizable & extremely handy for Netbook use.

    Link:


    There are of course many software Apps that will give you magnification but the control button on the mouse is nice.
