Kensington SlimBlade Trackball Mouse

Time to try out yet another mouse.

After having 2, yes 2, wireless mighty mice die on me for one reason or another, it was time to start looking at alternatives.

Before I move onto the review of this mouse, let me state the minimum requirements for my perfect mouse.
- Bluetooth wireless
- Horizontal + Vertical scroll
- Full size mouse (not a “notebook” mouse)
- Laser Tracking
All other options are negotiable.

So as far as this Kensington goes, it is basically a re-designed Apple Wireless Mighty mouse. Similar look and feel, scroll ball, and bluetooth. Overall its a pretty damn good mouse and I would recommend it, however it had some shortcomings that made it not the mouse for me.
- little bit too small, didn’t fit in my hand well.
- price $80+

If you are looking for a great bluetooth mouse for use at home and while on the road, this is a solid choice.
