I don't mean this to flame you or anything but this should be under the ~~~~~~~~~I WANNA~~~~~~~~~~ thread. By the way, do a search, on intellimouse optical in the forums and you'll come across many deals, some go as low as $19 last time I saw. Check it out. Good luck.

Look out! I smell a lock!

WTF.. here is your answer to that. This mouse has MAJOR problems with the cord shorting out. Go to the msnews.microsoft.com newsgroup server... look at the hardware forum.

Mine failed after 4 weeks, similar reports from others.

I believe Microsoft has pretty much let them dry up in the market; they have already announced new models (2000 speed optics instead of current 1500 speed optics).

Nice mouse... when it works. Microsoft told me this morning 3 to 4 weeks backorder on my replacement...

Made in Mexico!

I really think when new members sign up that they be forced to ACTUALLY read the rules........this is getting ridiculous

I think there was a batch of them that went out with that problem. I thought mine was doing that for a while (cause for some reason my computer kept freezing up), but it turned out to be my Windows installation rather than the mouse. I'm very happy with the Intellieye mice I have.

Might depend on your motherboard and such as well..how prone it is to small electrical currents. But, the new ones coming out will prob drive the old mice down some in price though

Did anyone actually get their intellimouse from buy.com? Mine's been backordered since June. I heard a rumor that they were gonna be getting some in July.
