Opposite here. After trying a few, I have no interest in buying cordless mice and will actively go out of my way to make sure any mouse I buy is corded. Even if things have gotten better in the last few years since I've tried them with regards to lag and such, there's still the annoying battery situation. Sometimes there's just no replacing a direct connection. All that said, I agree on the price on these. I'd love to have an open-firmware mouse, but $130 is too steep for a productivity mouse and there's not enough buttons for a gaming mouse (I like using the MMO-style ones which basically have a 10-key pad under your thumb).

> there's still the annoying battery situation That was what kept me away from cordless mice for decades. Now I seem to get about a year on a set of batteries. Do you use your mouse for gaming? Image manipulation? I don't have accuracy issues, but sometimes I notice a very slight lag if I haven't touched the mouse in a few minutes. Personally I'm willing to put up with that compared to the cord getting in the way.

  > Do you use your mouse for gaming? Image manipulation? Yes, often, and yes, sometimes. The "wake up" thing is a problem I remember having from one of the wireless rodents I had in the past and it was definitely frequent enough to turn me off. Granted, improvements in this and in battery life have surely occurred over the years, but I've never had a problem with a cord getting in the way (are you pointing your mouse backwards sometimes?), so that's not something I need solved. I'll just stick with wired mice for now and the foreseeable future.
