Description
Get optical reliability at an affordable price. This optical mouse features a convenient scroll wheel, customizable buttons, and stylish design.
Optical technology refers to the use of an optical sensor to track mouse movement, rather than the traditional use of mechanical parts. As a result, optical mouse products work on most surfaces and offer you better durability, increased speed and accuracy, and consistent performance.
-
Optical technology
Navigate with better speed, accuracy and reliability - the optical sensor tracks movement on nearly any surface without the hassle of clogged mouse parts. -
Comfortable in either hand
Use your mouse with your left or right hand - ambidextrous design makes it comfortable either way. -
Scroll wheel
Save time and effort with the scroll wheel - navigate documents and Web pages without using the on-screen scroll bar.

Good value for money
Reviewed by Nick. Review Posted 21/09/2007
About the most comfortable and easy to use mice for anything like this sort of money. The users like them and at about £8.80 ex VAT per unit they're not expensive.

Great Product
Reviewed by Ian. Review Posted 09/01/2007
Agred - For office use they're the best product on the market, however pricey for my liking. Fortunately my IT budget doesn't restrict me from buying cheap mice, so I'm about to order my 5th 5-pack of Black-Wired Optical Mice.
Great product, nothing else to say.

To the above...
Reviewed by Jason. Review Posted 27/07/2006
Uh, to the guy who thought £56 was a lot for a mouse:
You're right, £56 for a basic mouse is a lot of money. However, if you look real close at the item description, you'll see it's a 5 pack!
That aside, it's a bog-standard optical mouse. We use these at work, and they're accurate and comfortable, although there are a hundred optical mice out there that do that now, and for less than a tenner a pop, as well.
