When you place your hand on the Microsoft 69K-00001 Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 for the first time, you'll wonder how you've ever managed without it. Offering an unmatched package of ergonomic design, accuracy, style, and advanced features, this mouse is designed to conform to your hand in its most relaxed position. This breakthrough design with a tilted, elevated hand position is designed to reduce pressure the carpal tunnel and wrist, and it will give you the comfort and performance that you deserve.

The Natural Wireless Laser Mouse 6000 is ergonomically designed to conform to your hand in its most relaxed position and is loaded with advanced features.

The battery-life indicator warns you when the battery is running low.

Smooth 4-Way Scrolling
Featuring high-definition laser technology, the Microsoft 69K-00001 offers laser precision as you scroll through your files. Smoother tracking means less strain on your hands and wrists, and higher responsiveness means you'll quickly notice an increase in your productivity. The mouse also offers four-way scrolling, adding even greater efficiency and comfort to your work. The entire scroll wheel tilts from side-to-side and reacts to how quickly you roll the wheel for smooth, accurate maneuverability. For example, imagine yourself working with a super-wide spreadsheet loaded with data. With the Laser Mouse 6000 you can tilt the wheel from side-to-side to scroll right and left without having to click-and-drag the application's tiny scroll bar or arrows. And if your desktop is cluttered with too many items to find what you're looking for, don't fret. This mouse has a built-in Instant Viewer -- just click the scroll wheel button to display your open windows, then point and click to select.

The Magnifier
If you work with loads of digital imagery, you'll love the mouse's magnification feature. With this feature, it appears that you have a magnifying glass pressed against the screen. With a simple press-and-hold motion, the Magnifier enlarges the area of your screen that fits inside the lens. You can easily adjust both the size of the lens and the level of magnification. So when it's time to touch-up photos or fine-tune detailed tasks, the Magnifier will quickly become your best friend. (The magnifier works with most programs, but it is not compatible with Direct 3D API in full-screen mode, media players, OpenGL, or Layered Windows. Also, if you're using Mac OS X, the Magnifier enlarges text and images on the entire screen.)

Battery Life
This mouse also features advanced Microsoft technologies that help prolong the life of your batteries, which means that you can spend more time working and less time running back and forth to the store. The 69K-00001 automatically enters standby mode when it's inactive for a set length of time, which minimizes unnecessary battery drain. In addition, the light in the mouse's optical sensor illuminates only as brightly as necessary to provide optimal tracking power. And although it is inevitable that your mouse will eventually run out of juice, the Laser Mouse 6000 comes equipped with a battery life indicator that warns you when the battery is running low.

As the name implies, this mouse is completely wireless, which means you'll never have to hassle with cords again. Loaded with five customizable buttons, you'll have quick access to the media, programs, and files you use most often right at your fingertips. The mouse's ergonomic design features soft rubber material and a shape that feels as natural as a handshake. With a sophisticated form, the Laser Mouse 6000 has a cutting-edge look that will complement today's latest technology. So if you work with a computer that runs Windows XP/2000, has an available USB port, and 45 MB of free hard disk space, the Microsoft 69K-00001 could be the mouse you've always wanted.

Brand new in box for nearly 70% off
This product is great. I bought the same one several months ago at CompUSA for 80 dollars. Here it was 28.
Better than you can imagine!
This mouse is fantastic. While the wireless feature is becoming fairly standard, its ergonomic shape is without parallel. I work all day on my computer, and using this in conjunction with an ergonomic keyboard means that my hands never hurt at the end of the day. If you use your computer for several hours each day, ergonomic products are well worth your money. You will be impressed.
Great Mouse
I sit in front of my PC at work for 8-14 hours a day & my wrist has been killing. I went to CC to try out some mice and this was by far the nicest, but very expensive. Jumped on Amazon and found this mouse at a great price and bought it. I was a little leary about it being wireless, but it has worked flawlessly. My wrist pay is definitely much less and the mouse performs exactly as I had hoped!! Going to purchase another for my home desktop!!
amazing, but there's room for improvement
Mousing with this is relaxing. I noticeably felt less wrist strain, though I do wish the mouse was a quarter-inch higher to accommodate my wider fingers. As it is, while my thumb, index, and middle fingers are comfortable, I occasionally feel that my ring and little fingers are a little cramped. The location of the Back button for the browser is a little odd. Instead of putting it where it is now, I would have placed it on the other side of the Forward button, immediately above where the ball of my thumb would rest in the thumb groove. That way, if I wanted to hit Back, I'd just have to slide my thumb up instead of having to bend it to reach the Back button. Finally, I wish that the scroll wheel assembly felt a little sturdier. The left-right motion of the wheel for horizontal scrolling feels a little flimsy. Also, the scroll wheel itself seems a little too light to be able to effectively use it like a fly wheel (spinning it and letting it continue to scroll until you actually stop the wheel). All things considered, this mouse will spoil you! If you plan to use it in a shared space like a large office, you'll probably end up keeping it in a desk drawer every night to make sure no one filches it.
