I am a full-time blogger, which means I am on the computer nearly all day. I do most of my work on my laptop. While I love my laptop, I have never cared for the mouse and have always had my trusty Trackman Wheel Mouse that I love. Until recently that is!

My Trackman started sticking and hindering my work. So, what’s a girl to do? Buy a new mouse, I suppose. And so started my search for a new mouse. After looking at mouse after mouse (who knew there were that MANY to chose from?) I finally settled on a Rocketfish Twister Wireless Laser Notebook Mouse.

I am in LOVE with this little mouse. I was quite nervous I wouldn’t like any mouse that wasn’t my Trackman with my little side ball, but I do! Below are the reasons why I like my new mouse:

First and foremost it was easy peasy to set up. I didn’t even need the CD my computer recognized it right away. Being technically challenged, I love when things are easy to set up!

The mouse converts from travel/storage mode to use mode with a simple twist, this makes traveling and storage a breeze! Packing up my Trackman along with my laptop was always difficult because of the size and limited space. Now that problem is now solved! It also comes with a cute little pouch for easy storage at home or on the go.

The USB receiver is stored inside the mouse! How cool is that? It makes it near impossible to lose (not that I am admitting to losing things constantly). You simply eject it from inside the mouse and plug into your free USB port.

The 3D scroll panel is smooth and silent. I was worried that I needed to have it on a flat surface to work. However, I have been sick this week and spent the day on the couch curled up with my laptop. The mouse was on the arm rest and it worked just fine!

And there you have it, a happy geek. If you are looking for a new mouse, its affordable and sleek.
