Notebook/mini/travel mouse?

[beatle]

My girlfriend loves notebook mice. I'm not exactly sure why, but I can't argue with her in wanting computer parts as presents. I don't believe she is very picky, but she says she wants it to be "cute." By definition, a smaller mouse is "cute" so I don't think it matters. She doesn't want it as small as possible, as she still wants to be able to use it, but I'm thinking that a smaller optical mouse w/wheel would fit the bill. I don't seem to see many with the wheel. Does anyone have any recommendations?

depens on what she considers "cute" (aside from "small") Best Buy has a Kingston which is plain but it's very small.

Logitech has a pretty sweet brushed aluminum one. I believe MSI has released it relabeled as a "gaming mouse" it's a bit bigger but still small.

both have the wheel

I guess the most stylish laptop mouse is the logitech brushed aluminium one, the mouseman traveller.
As well as plain aluminium (my favourite), it also comes in metallic purple and light blue, if your gf likes that sort of thing.

Quite a nice little mouse to use, too.

I like the MS Notebook mouse

Here are some cute mice (e3Works ones)

I found a mini notebook laser mouse from a minor brand that has a spring loaded spool in the middle of the cable. Extend it all the way and then a bit, it'll zip back into the spool. Neat. Can't remember what the brand was though. It was only 13 euros, so it's no ripoff either.
