Logitech VX Revolution

Great mouse. Well made..comfortable design.. Click or freewheel works great..forward backward buttons on the left side work great.. 1 AA battery runs for a long time.
If this mouse stopped working today, I would get another just like it.

problem in KDE

This mouse is of good ergonomics, feeling comfortable to be used as a desktop mouse. However, there's some serious issue when used with KDE/Fedora. I did some cross testing. Other mice do not show the symptom, while this mouse works find on other platforms (GNORM and Windows). It's a particular issue as KDE is the main OS I use every day. Confused and frustrated.

Very good mouse

Time was when I would scoff at mice that had more than the bare essentials - two buttons and a scroll wheel; the vx pampers you so much you may never go back...

Pros:

- The scroll wheel can be set to smoothly go on spinning; this is so useful you will miss it when using other mice.
- The single AA battery lasts for a long time; I've been using rechargeable batteries with no problems.
- The ergonomics feel perfect in this 6 footer's hands
- It has plenty of other buttons - which in all truth I seldom use

Cons:
- This guy works in the 2.4 Ghz range... So if your phone works there too one of them is going to feel the pain; in my case the mouse stutters as long as the call lasts; that's the same range as b and g wifi...
- It is pricey for a mouse

Logitech VX Revolution vs. Nano

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RSM1P5136HSXV I've been using both the VX Nano and Revolution for several months now. In the end, I prefer the feel/design of the Revolution.

Here's why I prefer the Revolution:
- The size is just perfect and easier to get a grip.
- The scroll wheel is also larger/durable - hyperscroll works better.
- Two more extra buttons (zoom in/out)
- Back/forward button is located near the thumb (whereas you have to use your index finger for the Nano)
- Uses just one AA battery (The Nano requires two AAA batteries)
- VX Revolution can be suitable for desktop use also.
- USB receiver can be easily stored and removed (for the Nano, you have to open the battery cover to store the receiver [but then again, one really doesn't need to store it for the Nano, since it's already convenient to keep it attached on the laptop forever]

Pros about the Nano:
- Obviously the receiver is the biggest selling point. It's nice to keep it on the laptop and really just forget about it.
- You can alternate between hyperscroll/regular scroll just by pushing down on the scroll wheel. (For the Revolution, you have to move a switch on the back of the mouse)
- It comes with a case and USB extender (for desktop use [although the design/size of the Nano is really more for laptops)
- Suitable for both left/right hands. (Left handers were left out [no pun intended] on the Revolution.)

I'm sure most people will find the Hyperscroll really awkward at first; I certainly did. However, once you get used to it, there's no going back. It 's just so much better with less effort to scroll than the "old generation" scrolling techniques. It almost makes it feel like your computer becomes faster, since you can navigate long folders, websites (especially forums), and email effortlessly.

I've yet to have the hyperscroll stop working for the VX Revolution (seems to be more durable than the Nano so far); the hyperscroll stopped being "hyper" on my VX Nano twice already (even after I got a new replacement). However, I have read stories about the hyperscroll dying on the MX, VX Revolution/Nano, so the hyperscroll mechanism must have a major design flaw. Many who have opened up their broken hyperscroll mouse state it has something to do with the rubber rings; Logitech should really look into this and use a tougher rubber material.

Both has it's pros and cons, but in the end, I really prefer the Revolution. If you plan on using the mouse for laptop and desktop, definitely go for the Revolution (assuming you're right handed) - no question. Ultimately, it would be great to have a VX Revolution mouse with the nano receiver.

You'll love it

I am often unable to get ot of bed due to a back problem, so I use this in bed. It works great even under those conditions. It is fast and accurate. I also do a lot of detailed work like photography. It is comfortable over a long period of time and the options with the extra buttons help a lot with this work when sometimes you have to do several things at once. I just can't say enough positive things. It is the BEST!!!!!
