Macally ECOMOUSE USB Optical Mouse White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a new mouse to replace the Apple pro 1-click that came with my iMac computer. The Apple pro was no longer being made and the Apple Mighty Mouse seemed mighty expensive for something that was still different from what I was used to. I decided to try the Macally ECO mouse. I was glad I did. This mouse responds well and can be used like a 1-click, however you will find the right click useful as well and can program it to what you want - I use it as the "back" key function. The thumbwheel is nice too but to go right or left you have to still use the keyboard shift key with it. The mouse also moves nicely, it doesn't drag. The ECO mouse has a button on top which you can switch to a 1600 dpi resolution - it is convenently located and yet you DO NOT accidently press it. I haven't used it yet but for some gaming I hear it is usefull. I like the long cord, as it gives you room and is also really flexible, not stiff. I like to sit back with the mouse pad in my lap to play a game and this really gives you room. I wanted to try the wireless but after reading reviews I didn't like the idea of constantly running battery power down or replacing batteries. For less than the price of the Mighty Mouse I got the ECO mouse and another Macally mouse for an older iMac computer I have for the kids. Both of the Macally Mice hooked up to the iMac computers in seconds and we were ready to go.

Macally RFMouse USB Wireless Optical Mouse Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)As the owner of an iMac G5, I found a need to replace the keyboard and mouse that came with the machine - and this is the mouse I've finally settled on - and it's perfect.
In the past week I've tried out the Logitech Cordless Duo Mouse, the Kensington Wireless Optical Desktop mouse (both part of a keyboard/mouse package) as well as the optical Macally iceMouse, and I wasn't please with either of them - primarily from an ergonomic standpoint.
But after orienting myself to how I would work with my machine at home, I realized I didn't have a need for a wireless keyboard, but a wireless mouse would be a huge benefit. So I returned the iceMouse and purchased the RFMouse, and it's awesome!
Here is a quick run down:
[PROS]
1. Excellent ergonomic design - extremely comfortable to hold.
2. 3-buttons and a scroll wheel, which is all I need.
3. Wireless w/ rechargeable (4) batteries included.
4. Battery charger located in the receiver, which is a nice bonus.
5. Color coordinates with the iMac.
6. Very smooth scroll wheel, with great tactile response.
7. Power switch ON the mouse so you can reduce battery consumption - brilliant!
[CONS]
1. Scroll wheel seems to sit a little higher up toward the hand than the previous mice I've tested - definitely easy to get used to, it just means moving your finger up a little more to scroll and click.
2. That's it!
It's a great compliment to the Macally ICEKey Keyboard, which as a combination is a perfect replacement for the stock Apple products. Granted, everyone has their own preference when it comes to mice, but after testing out 3 mice that appear to be the leaders that cater to the Mac line of computers, the Macally RFMouse is stellar.
Enjoy!
P.S. To the reviewer who gave the product 1 star because it is right-hand biased - how is that review suppose to help anybody? the majority of mice on the market are for right-handed people - and it's been my experience that if a mouse is left-hand oriented, THAT is printed on the packaging - I think most people assume it to be right-handed.

Macally USB Slim Keyboard - ICEKEY Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This keyboard is the MacAlly IceKey. Amazon.coms description of it is a little wanting,
This is, quite simply, the most comfortable keyboard my fingers have ever had the pleasure of using. It's low-profile, short-travel keys are more responsive than any keyboard I've ever seen. It requires far less effort than the long-travel typewriter-style keyboards that are so ubiquitous today. It's scissor-mechanism keys do produce a mechanical tickity-tackety sound when you're typing, but it's hardly obnoxious; I find it infinitely preferrable to the soft, lifeless feel of the quieter rubber-plunger-style key.
Now - for the best part! - the IceKey is made for the Mac computer, but it works just fine on a PC. It's USB interface will work with any PC that supports a USB keyboard. When you plug it in and boot, Windows will detect it as a new device; just let it find compatible USB device drivers in the c:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder, and it works like a dream. There are four keys in the upper right corner of the keyboard (Volume Up, Volume Down, Mute, and CD Eject) that won't work on a PC because they require software driver support, and said drivers are only available for Mac. Honestly, it couldn't matter less to me. I LOVE this keyboard. It's easily the best $$ investment I've ever made toward my computing experience. I can't recommend it highly enough.
