The MX Revolution has a Rechargeable Li-Ion battery and a charging cradle that draws external AC power.

I am using a Evoluent Vertical Mouse ([url]http://www.evoluent.com)[/url] because it avoids the inward rotation of the wrist. Couple with a gell mouse pad I no longer have any wrist paid.

This seems a rather interesting mouse. Avoiding arm twisting is really a nice feature...

MOD EDIT: Picture warning added.

How about kensington media mouse?

The new line of Kensington (SlimBlade) seems pretty nice. The have this one, which is a laser mouse and doubles as a presenter and/or remote control for music. It has some pretty good reviews (1 and 2 ).

Just my very modest two cents.

It has a neat design. But unfortunately it's not Bluetooth (don't like having to plug the USB adapter all the time).
Bluetooth mouses, sure are lacking...

I too would be interested if anyone has had any problems with interference using their BT and wireless network at the same time.

BT seems nice since there's no need to worry about a dongle.

What about this one?

Logitech V470 Bluetooth Cordless Laser Mouse for Notebooks - Blue

It's a bit pricey, but looks great and seems to have the basics (incl right/left wheel control)

It isn't as pretty as the VX/MX... I'd really like a Bluetooth VX/MX. :)

I bought the MoGo x54 Pro mouse (Bluetooth). Still haven't tested, but the battery doesn't last long, so it probably won't become my main mouse.

My main mouse is the good ol' ThinkPad Travel Mouse (with USB cord).

There are other good options, though:

From Microsoft:

and Logitech:

Logitech's MX Air™ Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse seems especially good.... Don't know how much time the battery life lasts, though...
