SwissGear The Spyder GA-6290

What a great wireless mouse. I first saw and purchased the SwissGear The Spyder GA-6290 in TJ-Maxx (a clothing store of all places). In the check out line it was displayed close to the register for only $14.99. I saw the price and though "hey it's a Swiss product so it can't be that bad".

From the moment I started using it I was impressed. The highlights include 5 function buttons, ergonomic design, low battery indicator and PC/MAC USB compatible. The SPYDER GA-6290 uses the latest Laser mouse technology with 1000 DPI resolution that makes for smooth and very accurate tracking. Included are USB receiver and 2 AAA alkaline batteries. The USB receiver stores conveniently in the mouse bottom flushed and locked in place.

My one complaint about the mouse is when using it with Vista and Firefox (XP and Firefox were fine). With Vista mouse have problems or won't work when clicking combo boxes or scrolling pages on some sites. I found that this problem occurs more on pop ups or on windows open from Firefox browser. When I tried the same sites using IE the mouse worked fine. Even with this setback the mouse is still a great value and works very well.
