Microsoft Mice

[Synomenon]

I'm trying to decide on a Logitech V400 Dual Laser Notebook mouse or a Microsoft Wireless Laser Notebook Mouse 6000.

One feature I need is for the cursor to "wrap". That's when you bring it to an edge of the screen and it appears on the opposite side of the screen. I think I remember Microsoft mice being able to do this, but am not 100% sure. I know Logitech mice can't do that.

So anyone know if Microsoft mice, specifically the Wireless Laser Notebook Mouse 6000, can do this cursor "wrapping" thing?

Thanks for the link, but it looks like the developer of that one isn't working on it anymore.


Anyway, does anyone know if Microsoft's IntelliPoint has this mouse wrap feature integrated into it? I read somewhere that it did, but it may have been in the older versions of IntelliPoint. I know Logitech's SetPoint doesn't have it.

Well, bought a Microsoft Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 6000 and a Logitech V400 Dual Laser Wireless Notebook Mouse and tried both.

They both feel pretty good ergonomics wise. I ended up keeping the Logitech since it has back and forward buttons. The UberOptions Pack you can get for SetPoint is another plus though Microsoft's IntelliPoint seemed to have almost everything in there that the UberOptions pack adds to SetPoint.

Also, I finally found a nice cursor "wrapping" app. called "Boscado Wrap". Only problem is that it's not freeware and the developer doesn't seem to be working on it or selling registration keys for it anymore.

Check this one out also. You can prpbably ignore the sound and use the warp. It's free.
