Logitech MX1000

October 5th, 2004 | by Larry Chen

Introduction

Rewind the clock for two years, we were completely blown away by the revolutionary Logitech MX700 Cordless Mouse and its advanced features. We thought the essential input device of a computer couldn't get much better with MX700's precise MX Optical Engine, Fast RF wireless technology, recharging base station, and the ergonomic design. Well, we were wrong. Two years later, Logitech has done it again, releasing a refined version of their ultimate cordless mouse with a second to none laser sensor that is twenty times more sensitive than traditional optical sensors. In addition to the surface tracking technology, many other aspects of the mouse have also been vastly improved. Let's take a close look at what's new and what's hot about the Logitech MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse in this review.

Packaging

Similar to the packaging of other Logitech mice, the MX1000 is placed inside a nicely designed box that allows buyers to feel the comfortable contour of the mouse before buying it. To further attract buyers' attention, reflective laser iris packaging paper has been used around the mouse to signify the advanced laser tracking technology. Inside the package are the MX1000 Laser Cordless Mouse, a rapid-charging base station, the installation guide, an installation CD, an AC adapter, and a USB to PS/2 converter.
