Author: Well is it so?
I was just thinking about this when I’m using my newly bought cordless mouse, the Logitech V220.
With cordless mouse, we still need to hook on the USB key via the USB port. If the user is careless enough to loose the key, then the cordless mouse may not be such a good investment after all.
That is where the next-generation mouse comes in.
Bluetooth technology is nothing new to us.
In fact, Bluetooth technology existed in our personal equipments like the notebook computer, our mobile phone, etc.
One thing about Bluetooth where users tend to stay away ….. the cost factor.
For me personally, a Human Interface Device that will cost me nearly US$50….. man ….. that’s scary.
But the advantages is awesome….
Notable mice makers like Targus, Bluetooth, Microsoft and Logitech have revolutionised the way users use their mice.
It’s cordless, it’s smooth and more importantly it’s comfortable to use.
If you’re using the modern age notebooks, bluetooth technology is embedded in the notebook, thus a USB receiver is not needed.
Just by enabling the Bluetooth function from your notebook, it is able to detect the device.
Here are some of the most popular bluetooth mice widely used today..
Well what do think….. Is it the new hot stuff today?

The bluetooth mouse seems to be a good investment since there is no need for a usb addons sticking out of your laptop. Since laptop are meant to be mobile and battery usage is always an issue, even using a wired or wireless usb mouse or any other usb peripherals will contribute to draining ur battery power. Usage of “bluetooth” will definitely makes things worse.
When it comes to conveniences, there’s always the pros and cons.
One thing I forget to add to this article is that bluetooth mice will take 2 AA Alkaline batteries instead of 1 used by USB cordless mice. And yes the battery factor is also a major part why people resist the change.
Anyway I believed that manufacturers might have already troubleshooted the big leak of battery usage issue by now though you might be right when it comes to the comparison between the two.
Many thanks for the comment……
