 Solidworks or CAD user? Then do yourself a favor and get this mouse! August 7, 2008
I work as an architectural engineer in AutoCAD and Solidworks all day. Because of the nature of my work, I do a LOT of zooming/panning. I am only 25 and I was starting to worry that I was not going to be able to keep mousing much longer without giving myself a nice pile of carpal tunnel. After trying some different mouses, including the oddball Perific, I stumbled on this mouse.
All of my problems are gone. If the scroll wheel is your archnemesis on a daily basis with what you do on a computer, buy this mouse immediately, even if it puts your bank account into the negative. Zooming and panning are now effortless and much more elegant. Modeling large scale objects (corporate skylights in my case) is now a breeze.
In short, for CAD users the freewheeling scroll wheel is an indispensable addition to your selection of input devices. This more than makes up for any shortcomings this mouse has. Also, you can completely disregard any reviews that complain about not enough programmable functionality in the included software. UberOptions is a free modification you can find easily on the web that more than makes this mouse as customizable as you want it to be. Do yourself a favor, and go get this mouse!
Great mouse! August 3, 2008
I have repetitive stress injuries to both my thumbs/wrists to the point where they just fused the joint on my left thumb 3 weeks ago. it's in a cast, but I am a DBA so i still need functionality. This MX mouse, with all its programmable features, is really helping me continue to perform my job. Programming the various wheels and buttons to do copy/paste/forward/back/search, etc, was fairly easy. the ergonomic shape gives my bad right hand some relief too. I highly recommend this mouse even for people with two hands!
The Perfect Mouse August 1, 2008
After 2 decades of using mice, this is perfection. I put them on every computer. The heavy scroll wheel and the amazing grip and controls are legendary. I've never had any issues with the wireless. Surfing the net with this is fantastic and FAST. In short, this is nirvana.
It is painful to use computers at clients that haven't been enlightened.
Great mouse with its quirks July 29, 2008
Pros:
1) awesome scroll wheel for lightning fast scrolling for long documents and the ability to stop on a dime when needed
2) rechargeable battery + battery gauge
3) super smooth teflon feet
4) configurable buttons and jog wheel
5) fairly accurate compared to an optical mouse
6) solid build quality of the housing
7) weight well, not too heavy, not too light
Cons:
1) inconsistent travel for the buttons, sometimes the buttons stick
2) battery life could be better
3) logitech's software was horrendous (osx and windows)
4) choppy performance when there are other devices in the 2.4ghz range nearby (wifi, bluetooth)
This is a great multipurpose wireless mouse. You are able to scroll tho documents quickly. The teflon feet allow very smooth movements even on poor surfaces. Its weight and solid construction reminds you of the premuimness of the type of device you are using. However, there are some operational issues. Logitech's software is just the worst (lag on windows, and crashes os x). Forgo that and find yourself some free button management program out there. The issue of choppy performance may be attributed to wifi and bluetooth in close proximity of the usb transmitter. After turning off my wifi, i no longer had performance issues. My last gripe is the buttons. None of the buttons have a tactile feel to it, some have different stroke and travel, while others just feel like they want to stick. The buttons appear to have come from cheaper MX mice. Overall the strengths of the MX Revolution gives me enough reason to keep it as its fairly utilitarian and stylish. Most of the weaknesses could be avoided.
best mouse i have used July 22, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i have used several different mice over the years and this is my favorite so far. comfy ergonomics and the free spinning scroll wheel make it a winner. you can customize every button making it the perfect mouse for whatever your work flow might be. i use this with a 24" Intel iMac with no problems at all.
