Logitech Laser Mouse

If the mx1000 was corded I would own several of them by now. I searched for one back when the mx1000 was released but couldn't find any information regarding it. Why oh why must they take such a sweet mouse and then turn it into wireless poop?
A wired mx1000 is about the only thing that would tempt me enough to give up my logitech mouseman dual optical that I have had for years and years.

I'll go on a searching rampage again for info. If you come up with anything plz post it here

great minds think alike, fools seldom differ...

You don't like the MX510 Folken? It's basically the 1000 with a cord. (not exactly but close)

I'm after the laser aspect of the MX1000 on a corded mouse. I'll deem that a worthy enough mouse to replace my mouseman dualoptical. If all I cared about was the shape of the mouse I would definatly have an mx510 right now

I think there are plans for a corded version of the mouse, we must just be patient
I doubt microsoft will bend to your wishes and put a cord on your keyboard. I doubt we will be seeing many corded keyboards in the years to come.
In constrast to wireless mice I actually find some wireless keyboards to be very handy. My logitech wireless elite keyboard is awsome. It is even a few years old and it never misses a key, I can hit many keys at once, it works from almost 20ft away through walls, and the batteries last a ridiculously long time. Then again it is logitech so you have to assume it has slightly higher quality than the competition

I've never heard of that before...
Try moving the reciever farthur away. I've had problems with wireless things when they are to close to eachother as well as to far away.

I have two of these on separate systems. Both do 'quirky' jumps every so often, almost os if they randomly reset elsewhere on the screen. Have you ever experienced this?

If I can't figure out the quirks in my laser mice, you'll see it in the classifieds.

There is no lag with the wireless MX1000 - I have one.

Anyone who saying there is a noticable lag is a complete nerd!

Seriously, they optimized it all, incresed something on the USB to allow more data etc.

You probably just have a lousy keyboard. Upgrading to a higher quality one might resolve that issue.

As far as the mouse thing, will have to wait and see with the laser, haven't had a chance to try it, but with optical mice I see no difference in performance between wireless or wired, as long as its quality stuff. Maybe I'm just a better gamer though (j/k)

Exactly. I actually had an expensive MS keyboard (cause I wanted that fingerprint reader, I love gadgets) and threw it out, now I'm using a rather cheap logitech and I wouldn't trade it for anything that had a wire on it.

it's all about Logitech, don't even bother with anything else.

I'm glad I found this topic because I've been looking into which mouse to buy. I've been using a Wireless Trackman Wheel for the longest time (almost worn out my 2nd one) but it doesn't seem to be the best for FPS. Will I have to get a mouse pad for this? Monarch has them for 59.99 with free shipping off of pricewatch. I've had a cheap logitech keyboard and its never failed me but I might upgrade it too.

this is a bit of an old thread.. I know.
But, They just released the corded version of the laser mouse,,, G5 I think it's called, or something like that. I saw a review on it on a tech show.

<font color=green> I doubt, therefore I might be. </font color=green>

And there was rejoicing in the streets!! I'm so happy! I can finally get rid of this crappy MX700. Woo hoo!! If I didn't have to work I'd go get one right now. I wonder if Best Buy has them yet...
