I\u2019ve been using a Logitech Wireless M305 mouse<\/a> for a couple of years, and it has worked very well. The only negative thing was that it goes through batteries very quickly. <\/p>\n

But, it fits well in my hand, is lightweight and easy to maneuver, and has a very small USB receiver, which doesn\u2019t get in my way. (I\u2019ll complain about my laptop later \u2013 it\u2019s an Asus N76V, with all the USB ports at the side front, instead of the side back.)<\/p>\n

Recently, the mouse because overly sensitive, and double-clicked when it should have clicked, which made it very difficult to work. Instead of selecting a range of cells on a worksheet, I\u2019ve find myself in one of them, editing the cell contents.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s okay if I\u2019m overly sensitive, now and then, but I need my mouse to remain calm, and click reliably. So, I switched to an old wired mouse (M-BZ105A), which still works well, but has approximately 100 feet of cord. I guess it\u2019s designed for old desktop computers where the USB might be in a unit on the floor, a few feet away.<\/p>\n

Finally, I got new batteries, and replaced the one in the M305, but it\u2019s still super sensitive, and I can\u2019t work with it. There\u2019s nothing evident that could be causing this, so it\u2019s time for a new mouse.<\/p>\n

The local Staples doesn\u2019t carry the M305 any longer, so I bought the newer M325 model<\/a> and just started using it. It\u2019s slightly lower and rounder than the old model, but feels almost the same. It\u2019s responsive, and moves well, and not overly sensitive like that poor, overworked old mouse.<\/p>\n

Both models are good for small hands, but you\u2019d probably want something large if you have giant man hands. Here are all 3 lined up, and you can see how much bigger the old, wired mouse is. The new M325 is at the left \u2013 it looks pink, but it\u2019s red. The old M305 is in the middle.<\/p>\n

Do you have a favourite mouse? I\u2019m always wary of changing, once I find one that I\u2019m comfortable with, but so far, so good. And maybe it will be easier on the batteries!<\/p>\n
