I used to have one too, but I loved mine, until I spilt wine on it and it refused to work again(pre-pregnany days of course). Was to cheap to buy another, but still have my wireless mouse - which I love - even though you have to make sure you have batteries for it (which is a slight pain - but oh well - the price you pay)

Ours was a pain too and always needed batteries. Gone back to the old fashioned ways now, much more reliable!

We used to have one but it drove me nuts so I sold it and have gone back to one that is plugged in. Has it gotten better? and did you change the batteries??
