I have a MS 6000 BT mouse which I've been using for 18+ months (with a T43) and there are no finish wear issues at all with it.

I have a Logitech MX900 Bluetooth that pairs up with both my T42p and T60p internal Bluetooth just fine. Great mouse. However, I still find that I don't use it as much as I thought I might...the TrackPoint is just too convenient and too natural.

After years of being Trackpoint only (external Ultranav keyboard), i've decided to try a mouse again and the one I want is the Logitech VX Nano (mainly due to the scrollwheel) :

This mouse is not bluetooth but the only real reason for using bluetooth (as it is much more flaky that 2.4GHz proprietory tech) is the fact that you dont need a reciever but check out the size of the reciever for this mouse - you will be able to keep it plugged in and it
wont bother you.

Still uses up a USB port permantly which used to be very annoying on my T43P with only 2 ports.

Totally agree, I can never have enough USB ports and I couldn't cope with only 1 free but 2 free would be OK as on the T60.

Yeah, I could live with that too, it used to be a real pain having to unplug my mouse to use my 2.5" usb HD cause it demanded both ports for power etc.

I used have a Targus bluetooth mouse. It's ok.
Then I bought a Logitech bluetooth mouse. It's much better.
Forgot the name, the M/N number is: M-RBB93
Also, both have the on-off switch.
I use those with my T60.

I got that Targus BT mouse too. I haven't opened it yet though. Is it the reported lag, that bothered you too?

I have a Logitech MX900 Which is Very nice and if you want something even smaller.. I also have a IOGear GME554 Bluetooth mouse which is very portable and works well.. I use the IOGear when I go on the road and the Logitech at home because its a bit more comfortable. Both Mice have a On/Off Switch
