It's cool to look at AND functional -- how often does that happen?
It's the size of a credit card, and weights only 2.5 oz (71 grams.)
Things I noticed:
- I simply plugged it into the USB port; Windows found it and it worked instantly and flawlessly!
- The wheel has good grip on it (unlike my last Targus mouse.)
- When it is just sitting there, the 7 colours fade in and out. Now, I was thinking this would be distracting and too bright, but I found that they are actually soft and subtle. It so "Mac" (I have no other way to describe it.)
- In the design traditon of the new Mac products, this mouse is a nice steel grey with a very slick, polished surface that feels nice. The buttons are nice, too.
- The sensitivity seems to be higher/better than my previous mouse. But, I would rather have to turn down the sensitivity than have to turn it up (only to find it's at the max already.)
- As the colours rotate through, they stop rotating when you use the mouse, and resume when you stop.
- The retractable cord-thing WORKS! And quite well. I was worried about it when I purchased it, but I now think it's one of the best features.
If you are looking for a travel mouse, or one that will make other coworkers jealous, this mouse is for you. |
Prismatic!

| Works great and is a very comfortable size. The play of colors...beautiful, yet not overpowering. I wanted to add some coolness to my computer area and this Targus mouse exceeded my expectations ! |
Excellent mouse

| I have had this mouse since June 2005 and am just now looking at a new one. The only reason I need a new one is because one of the pads on the bottom has started to peel off. Most of the complaints in the negative reviews are easily avoided. If you use this mouse on a mouse pad or non reflective surface it won't jump around near as much. The uneven USB cable is also fixable. I have had no issues with this mouse whatsoever and I use it and retract it a fair amount (taking laptop to campus, traveling home for weekends and breaks) so it's sturdy. All in all, a very good mouse. |

| This is the second one that I've bought. I bought the first Targus mouse with retractable cord in 2005 and love it. So, I bought a second one to travel with my mini DELL. Two advantages are plug-and play and when trouble-shooting problems with the computer, the lighting lets you know immediately when the mouse is connected. |
Cute and Functional

| This was an impulse buy for me. My touchpad always got in the way when I was typing a paper. I was considering buying just some mini cheap mouse, but then I saw this one. The mini was 15 bucks, I figured for the extra five I could get a slightly bigger one that changes color. I've gotten a lot of compliments on how cool it is. I really love the retractable feature, its quick and I don't have to worry about pulling the cord and busting it. Great mouse, never had a problem. |
