I have a Samsung NC10-14GB 10.2-Inch Blue Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life that is great except for the dinky little track pad. Seriously - a Smurf would have trouble using this thing! So I decided a mouse was in order, and a small one at that since I like to go different places to study. I have tried both wireless and Bluetooth mice and came to the conclusion that a simple, wired mouse would be less of hassle to deal with (no batteries to replace, broken dongles, misplaced mice, etc.)
This little mouse is typical Logitech - priced well and seemingly durable. It has a cord length of ~ 2 feet, so bear that in mind if you have to wrap the cord around your computer to get to a USB. The SetPoint software is a great addition to download - it really lets you tweak the mouse settings and expand on its capabilities. I found out of the box that the cursor was a bit slow and the software allowed me to change that (note that it works out of the box as a basic mouse - true plug-and-play). I was also able to customize the middle button (the default zoom function doesn't interest me, but the document flip option for Windows 7 Home Premium is cool and handy).
The physical mouse itself is small - another reviewer remarked on its small waist, and he/she was correct. I don't have especially huge hands but the mouse is noticeably narrower than my other mice. It's not uncomfortable, but I have worked with other mice that fit my hand better. The buttons have a nice positive click, and the scroll wheel is money. Plus, the price is right: if this little guy breaks or 'walks off' It won't break the bank replacing it unlike my Microsoft Bluetooth mouse!). The smallish cord is actually pretty handy - it doesn't get in the way on a small table like you think it would.
Nice price, slips into computer bag with ease, very responsive (no lag like my wireless and Bluetooth mice) - plus no batteries to tangle with. All told, this is a great option for the road warrior, student, or anybody who values simplicity. Finally the SetPoint software that you download from Logitech's website really ups the ante on functionality.
Cheers!
EDIT: 2/6/10
I still stand by my original review of this mouse save for one aspect: The tiny 'waist' of the mouse did cause my hand to cramp up after prolonged usage, which I thought I could learn to live with but could not. So I returned the mouse and instead bought a Logitech LS1 Laser Mouse. Hopefully the new mouse works a bit better for me. If you have smaller hands, than the V100 is excellent. But those with average to larger-sized hands need not apply.
