Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this mouse based on a glowing review in Network World magazine, in the immortal words of John Lennon, "I shoulda known better".
My hope was the "30x more accurate tracking" would improve my ability to lasso images in photoshop, well not yet anyway. My old Logitech roller seemed to get "stuck" at the most critical moments, the necessary nudge would then send it scooting across the picture. This Iogear Laser is so smooth that the problem is just the opposite. With zero resistance this mouse seems to move by itself at the most critical moments.
I think the problem could be solved with a better mouse control panel. There is simply not enough sensitivity adjustment in the Windoze mouse control to get it right. At the slowest setting it is too sluggish, but one notch up and it becomes too touchy. The Logitech mouse driver allows more fine tuning of the mouse sensitivy and includes an accelerator adjustment.
The potential is there for a great product, if Iogear had included an improved mouse driver instead of relying on the standard Windoze driver, this mouse would rate a perfect 5.
