Amazing

The mouse is large but most people nowadays are used to larger mice in lieu of former Logitech products. I really like this mouse and would take over the MX 1000, it is very comfy and fast. The scroll features are amazing and the document flip is convenient. As a pre med student the 1 toutch search button a useful.
The only drawback is that you can't replace the battery, but it is a good one.
Non functional middle button

The mouse is overpriced but OK, except that there is no functional middle click, very important for tabbed navigation in firefox and other programs.
By default, pressing the wheel as middle button is disabled; you can enable it in setpoint software, but works awfully, very unreliable. Worse, you cannot assign middle click functionality to wheel-right or wheel-left or to the "one-touch search" button. Avoid this mouse, is a step backwards from the MX1000, both in hardware in software (the setpoint settings are incredibly limited... why????). By the way, does anybody on earth use the wheel-left or wheel-right buttons? it adds mechanical complexity (and so, cost) hampers the use of the wheel as button and adds absolutely no useful functionality.

I just got this mouse because my MX 1000 charger and battery died. I don't like it.
It is FAR smaller than the 1000 and way harder to handle. I liked the feel of the larger 1000. This is supposed to be easier on your hand but I find my hand tires on it quite easily. The scroll buttons are ok, but the switch document button is too easy to activate. When I'm gaming... if i even touch the button it knocks me out to windows start screen. Nice try Logitech... but... stick with what worked... MX 1000 !!!!
Battery Failure

I've seen 4 months of service before I started seeing the dreaded flashing red battery indicator. Logitech technical support is making the replacement as difficult as possible. I'm not going to be purchasing more Logitech products until I see a change in their customer service.

Cons - (a) the document flip is really not that useful; in fact, I'd like to see a future version of this mouse without it and instead have the forward and back buttons in its place (to suit the natural position of the thumb) (b) the scroll wheel in the free spin mode is a bit too reponsive sometimes and needs to be calibrated a bit using the software. Others - I haven't really used the search button very much so I can't comment on its performance.
