Ok, I want to get a Bluetooth mouse to use with my Powerbook, but the thing is I will be using it in a classroom with about 20 other Powerbooks. Will my mouse interfere with their computers? I don't want to be moving their cursors by accident, but a Bluetooth mouse would be nice.

doubtfull.

i'd venture a guess and say you'll need to turn on the bluetooth mouse feature somehwere in the OS. unless somebody else has turned theirs on, there will be no issues.

if somebody else is using a BT mouse, i'm have to guess that they are on different "frequances" or "channels" and would not interfer with each other. not entirely sure how BT works, but i believe they need to "mate" or set something up so they can identify each other and remeber each other.
