Conclusion

The Logitech V550 Nano packs impressive performance and convenience into a tiny mouse. Although there are smaller mouse designs on the market, none of the smaller mice have such a convenient way to store your mouse with the notebook.

Size does matter for notebook users. The V550 cordless mouse and receiver combo is easy to live with and works extremely well. While I would have liked some tougher plastics and paint, the V550 is an excellent mouse. As of this writing, I think it's safe to say that Logitech has given us yet another great mouse for notebook users.

Pros

• "The world's smallest USB receiver"
• Excellent scroll wheel
• Great laser sensitivity
• Glide feet help the mouse move smooth
• Auto-off feature when mouse is clipped to notebook
• Auto-on feature when mouse isremoved from notebook

Cons

• Plastic base of mouse is easily scratched
• Clip-and-Go dock seems to hold firm ... but for how long?
• Silver paint is easily scratched
• More color options would be nice (black rather than silver or gray?)
