Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 (Black) review: Microsoft Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 (Black)

Comfortable; ambidextrous; inexpensive; lag-free performance.

Software not included; no extra buttons; short, three-foot range; lacks horizontal scroll.

The Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse 3000 is a decent choice for mobile users, but the Logitech V400 is a far better one.
