Strengths: Very compact. good button layout, awesome receiver concept that for from long ranges too (I use it from about 10 feet), nice pouche to hold mouse, accurate laser and works on most surfaces.
Weaknesses:kind of small for my hands, but then again, it is a compact mouse. i have carpel tunnel and it doesn't aggravate the pain in my wrist, so it's still pretty good size.
Overall Evaluation: i would totally buy this mouse if you're looking for a nice compact laptop mouse. it has many functions and the buttons are all programmable. can do most things that you would want to do. one thing that i tried to do and doesnt work is setup a button to change programs (alt+tab), becuase the provided program doesn't allow you to type in the command, but rather, press the command, causing my computer to switch to another program. a little annoying, but whatever. its a good mouse.

Strengths: great scrollingfits nicely in handlight
Weaknesses:storage of receiver
Overall Evaluation: I love this on my laptop -- in fact two of my friends have bought it after seeing mine. It fits my hand really nicely, it's easy use to use, and you have to try the new scroll wheel to understand how incredible it is. The receiver is so small it barely protrudes from the USB port. The only down side I can find is that, to store or retrieve the receiver, you have to pop off the battery cover from the bottom rather than, say, sliding it in to the base.

Strengths: Well suited to a small hand, nice ergonomics, awesome usb transmitter
Weaknesses:Roller a bit sluggish
Overall Evaluation: The tiny transmitter is awesome; it's small enough to leave in all the time without problems. The mouse itself is fantastic for a person like me with small hands. However, even with modifications, the roller is sluggish for my tastes. Nice options for customization let you, for the most part, customize the mouse to suite your preferences. All in all, a fine product.

Strengths: Size, sturdy, battery life
Weaknesses:Placement of back/forward buttons
Overall Evaluation: I received this mouse as a present for Christmas. I previously had a Microsoft Wireless Notebook Optical Mouse that served me well. But I have a little 14mo. daughter that loves to try and pull at the USB receiver. Not a good thing. But with the new receive for this VX Nano, there's virtually nothing for her to grab. When people say the receiver is small, it's an understatement. I sometimes wonder how the mouse works so well with such a small receiver...all I know is that it gets the job done.With the mouse itself, it has a sleek design that's very comfortable to hold. Hard-rubber sides ensure a firm grip, which is helpful for those with larger hands. On the bottom, you'll find the laser eye as well as the power button and the battery lever and door. Inside the battery compartment, you can store the USB receiver if you decide to detach it from your laptop. The scroll wheel is made out of solid stainless steel with a rubber grip for your fingertips. The stainless steel construction gives it a very solid feeling as you scroll with the wheel. Plus, the scroll wheel gives you two modes of operation. The first is the standard "click" scrolling that's found on most mice, and the second is a "smooth" no-resistance scroll. You can change modes by pressing firmly on the scroll wheel itself. I find that the smooth scroll is most beneficial for very long pages as you can let the scroll wheel run longer with a flick of your finger. I had to install the OEM software to customize some of the button functionality but no biggie. If there's any fault on this mouse, I would have to say it's the placement of the back/forward buttons. They are located, in tandem, on the upper left of the left click button. It's an awkward placement that I'm just not used to. If they were placed more to the side so that I can use my thumb, it would have been perfect.
