the brand new MX1000, an official replacement of the MX700 from Logitech. This new mouse actually uses laser technology to scan (as the ad states) 20x more precisely than optical mice. 800 dpi resolution and 5.8 megapixels per second is the set rating.

You might be surprised to know that this mouse has had no issues with any surface I have tried it on, including a mirror. It states that you shouldn’t use it with reflective surfaces but I wanted to see what this thing could do.

The battery/charging changes include a set of LEDs, showing battery strength. The LEDs shut off if there isn’t activity, in case you were wondering.

The mouse no longer glows since it is using the laser instead of a camera picking up a red LED like all other optical mice.

The mouse uses a lithium ion battery for power, instead of AA batteries like the last two incarnations. Other changes include a more ergonomic feel for use of your thumb, plus it gives you all of the standard buttons the MX700 and MX900 had.
