The Microsoft Wireless Mobile Mouse 4000 is an excellent mouse with almost nothing to complain about. Designed to fit very comfortably in the hand, the Microsoft wireless mouse's BlueTrack technology works on nearly any surface regardless of whether or not you have a mouse pad. Small in size and available in a wide variety of colours, this mouse is perfect for use with laptops.

The Bluetrack technology allows the mouse to be used on a very wide variety of surfaces, useful where a normal optical mouse just doesn't make the cut. The design is ergonomic, allowing it to fit pleasantly in the hand. It is also small enough to be easily moved around. The mouse features an off switch, allowing battery life to be extended when the mouse is not in use.

The Microsoft wireless mouse comes equipped with plug and play capability, allowing it to be used almost as soon as it is plugged in to the computer. The transceiver is hidden on the bottom of the mouse, which also conceals the power button and the batteries. The battery life of the mouse is good for ten months on a single double A battery. A red LED light on the top of the mouse will let you know when the battery is starting to run low on you. Unlike many other mice available, this Microsoft wireless mouse is available in five colours: teal blue, berry pink, lime green, white, and graphite.

The mouse comes with software allowing you to configure the mouse. In this way the buttons can be assigned to different purposes, the speed that the mouse scrolls down the screen can be altered, and the double click speed can be adjusted as well. The mouse software is easy to use and offers help for anybody who needs it. While the CD allows these adjustments to be made, it is not necessary to have the CD in order to use the mouse with other computers, which makes it great for travel.

The mouse is designed to fit comfortably in both the right and the left hand, with the ability to adjust the buttons so that it can be used in this way as well. A soft plastic coats the mouse, providing the user with extra grip as well.

The scroll wheel of the mouse allows for not just up and down scrolling, but side to side. When pressed sideways, the scroll wheel clicks to the next page. When scrolling up and down, the wheel glides smoothly. The scroll wheel can also be used as a button, which activates the Flip 3D overlay, allowing all open windows to be organised in to a stack that you can scroll through.

The best feature of the mouse is the BlueTrack technology. The provides the mouse with the precision of a laser mouse and the coverage of an optical mouse, allowing it to be used on nearly any surface while providing much smoother control than most optical mice. This is great for travel, allowing the mouse to be used on the go without needing to carry around a mouse pad. Everything from tables to carpets can be used as a surface for this mouse.

Finally, the mouse is small; easily moved from one place to another and can connect to the computer from thirty feet.
