Gear Head Optical Wireless Mouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I, like another reviewer, got mine at Big Lots for $13. But, mine has been perfect. It works on ALL, I mean ALL surfaces. It amazes me because it works on high pile carpet, microfiber couch arm, skin, etc. I've had absolutely no problems with mine except that the logo is wearing off because of how much we use it. The USB dongle is on the large size but not bigger than a small USB jump drive.
The size of the unit is great and fits in small hands. If you have large hands you won't like this. My 3yr old daughter can use this mouse without problems.
I really like the "squishy" sides which make gripping the mouse very comfortable.
Remember most people post on the internet when they have bad experiences with things. I ran across this because I was going to order a 2nd one but it's still cheaper at Big Lots. I wasn't going to write a review until I saw how bad of reviews this was getting. It really is a great product that is priced correctly on Amazon or at Big Lots.
It's a better mouse than my wireless mouse that came with my $100 Wireless Microsoft Keyboard/Mouse combo.
edit:
I forgot to mention that the mouse does have an auto shutoff mode which is pretty good. It shuts off with about 1-2 minutes of inactivity. I find this very effective at saving the batteries. Also, this mouse really isn't heavy. The only reason it seems heavy is because of the two batteries it takes. The bottom line is it's not heavier than the 2 other wireless mice I have at work and at home.

Gear Head Wireless Keypad + Optical Mouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Nice features include the on/off switches on both the keypad and mouse, backspace, and vol. control buttons. No S/W driver CD required to use this - just plug in the USB base/transceiver. Mouse has two buttons and a scroll wheel. The USB/Transceiver has a snap for connecting it together with the keypad for storage.
Once or twice the keypad did not immediately attach to the USB base transceiver, requiring that I press the "connect" button on the bottom of the keypad - probably RF interference w/ my other wireless keypad. Didn't have trouble with the mouse attaching.
Mouse movement overall is pretty smooth. I tried using the mouse with both Windows XP and Vista. The first time I tried the mouse in Vista it was .1% intermittently jittery, and sometimes the mouse button was not responsive, and I had to click it a second time. I haven't been using this very long, so I'm guessing that's attributed to RF interference from my other desktop keyboard. This is only a minor nuisance so far for me.
(note: I tried the mouse later on a second time with both XP and Vista, and it was very fluid and responsive)
The mouse is small and narrow - about half the size of a normal mouse. Movement for its size is tolerable, but I have to lift my hand off of the mouse and hold the thing by the tips of my fingers to use the scroll wheel or click buttons. I suppose its size is useful when sitting at a small desk or small coffee table.
The USB/transceiver's cap does not snap onto the back end of the transceiver, making the cap easy to lose when connected to a PC.
As for Vista compatibility, both keypad and mouse are working with Vista on my Dell Inspiron laptop.
I didn't have problems with the keypad reported by other reviewer(s), but I did notice that due to keypad size, it is sometimes possible to press two keys at the same time. Otherwise, I didn't experience any negative aspects using the keypad.
In summary, this is a great value for travelers on the go. Everyday desktop users will not like the small mouse.
