Microsoft Ergonomic Mouse

The first thing you'll notice about this Microsoft ergonomic mouse, besides the pretty weird design, is the soft feel you get after first touching it, but also its weight. For such a small mouse, even with the design and batteries, it is much heavier than other mice.
The same design forces you to change your hand posture to a more lateral position, transferring pressure to the lateral edge of your hand. This is just a matter of adjustment. To get a better picture of how your hand will find its position when working with the mouse, stand up and raise you right arm in front of you with your fingers relaxed and without tilting your wrist. This is more or less the position your hand will have while working. A problem might be the fact that only the right-handed users can use it. Another cool feature is that this Microsoft ergonomic mouse is OS X compatible.

Easy to click, its five buttons come in handy when you need productivity. The middle wheel has four scroll directions, so you can perform horizontal scroll. As a plus, the scroll button works very smoothly, without jamming. As a minus, for a middle click button, the wheel is very hard to press. All of the five buttons are well placed giving an ease of clicking, ruling out the problem of accidental clicking.
The Microsoft ergonomic mouse comes packaged with the Intellipoint 6.0 software, which, after installing, gives you many options for customizing the two extra buttons so that they can do any task you wish. In addition, you can improve the mouse's performance from there. Two other very nice features you must try are Instant Viewer and Magnifier, which mimic Apple's Expose.

The laser engine and the close range wireless make the two strong points of this mouse. Ergonomic mice are more precise and responsive as this Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse proves us. You don't need to move the mouse around too much if you increase the pointer speed. Nevertheless, if you don't, there's no problem. Either way, it offers a smooth tracking.
The mouse has no power button, so the connecting device serves as one. You'll get instant connectivity and disconnecting the device switches off the mouse, this meaning longer battery life. When your battery is running low, a Battery Status LED Indicator will show you it is time to change it. Inside the mouse, you will find a display of the Battery Status.

Aside the Intellipoint 6.0 software and the mouse itself, inside the package you will find the wireless mouse receiver, two AAA batteries, a proper usage leaflet, a generic quick start guide and 6.1 Mac software too.

The Microsoft Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 has a unique design and many features, definitely high quality, but it is a little bit expensive. Overall, the Microsoft Natural Laser Mouse 6000 serves well for any user's office desktop.
