Are they available in Canada? I haven't seem them around yet. I also believe it's quite expensive isn't it? I was hoping for something in the $50-75 Canadian range.

MX 900......got one myself......bluetooth hub is useful..for wireless headphones, the mouse itself....mobile (cell) phone etc etc....

The mx 900 is a nice mouse too with reasonable battery life and not too heavy for gaming...and most importantly ..absolutely no lag even when taking it off the base station to use it....

I would assume so, but you need a Bluetooth-compatible computer/OS. I believe Windows XP Pro is the only one so far. Maybe OSX Tiger also.

The only Bluetooth Logitech mouse I know of is the V270 notebook mouse, all the others are RF.

I think OS X 10.2.6 and newer supports it... i know for sure 10.3 and 10.4 do.

Where can i buy the V270?


I see that the MX900 is Bluetooth, but it's not listed on Logitech's website anymore so must be discontinued?? TigerDirect still has it listed, not cheap. I haven't seen the V270 on any other sites yet, you might want to check with one of your local stores I see your from Canada well it's listed on the Logitech Canada site as well. Maybe just isn't out yet? Try Staples or OfficeMax.

I have the Logitech® Cordless Click!? Plus Optical Mouse, first wireless I ever owned. Works great and it's around $50 US or so.

I really can't say how great the MS models work? Used their corded ones without any problems, just didn't care for the button feel so I went with the Logitech.
