Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Price, Easy plug-n-play

Weakness: Buttons are little clumsy due to size of mouse.

The Targus wireless optical mouse is either one you will love or hate. I bought this based on it's relatively inexpensive price since I would not be using it as my primary mouse. For a small compact optical mouse, it has done the job for me.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Wireless Optical instead of a ball that can get dirty.

Weakness: The cursor can stop working and then jump around the screen when you don't expect it when the battery gets low.

I like the idea of a wireless optical mouse for a notebook and I think this one is ok for using when you get tired of using your laptop pad. The only things that I didn't like about it is that the cover was tricky to remove and sometimes the cursor will jump.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Ease of installation Ease of use Size

Weakness: does not work as well with aluminum cased laptops

This is an excellent product. I purchased it the other day from an office products store, where a friend recommended it. My laptop comes with a trackpad, which work intermittently, so I needed something more dependable. Thus, I went with this Targus wireless mouse. It matches the color of my laptop, the Targus logo is not huge (as I don't usually buy Targus equipment). It was easy to setup. Just...

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Easy to install, and great in power managment.

Weakness: None

One of the best mouses in the market today.With its small size its perfect for space saving, and also has a great feature with an ON and OFF switch which is great to save batteries.Also its optical feature makes it virtually maintenance free since it has no ball to clean.I would recomend this mose to other people as well.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: price

Weakness: awkward shape, weak signal

fortunately i got this mouse @ lower than its competitor price. unfortunately, i should have paid more for its competitor. this mouse's signal dropped so frequent that it's unusable. the shape of the mouse didn't help either. it's uncomfortable after using for more than 5 minutes that was if i got to use it for more than 5 minutes. not recommended.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: None that I could think of.

Weakness: Interferences

The mouse does not work properly if there is an wireless device such as wireless internet or wireless fone or anything that is wireless around it because of interference. So if you have any wireless device around your computer, do not buy this product.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Less clutter. Price after rebate.

Weakness: Included battery.

BUT LIKE MOST included batteries, they don't last long. Used rechargeable 750mAh NiHM batts. Fits good enough for my right hand. No problem co-existing with my wireless router and USB adapter. Has ON/OFF switch with sleep mode for power management.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: wireless

Weakness: too bulky and bad range

it does work as a mouse, but not as a good wireless mouse because of its range. I would recommend some other brand like benq or logitech over targus wireless.

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Smart, easy to use

Weakness: sometimes stop working without reasons

the targe moves accurately. the mouse is portable with small usb adapter. Better than my former microsoft explore 2.0. which is huge and stops working after 3 days. But this mouse sometimes stops working. and after a while it begin works again. I thought it is out of battery, but it isnot. Also, be careful about your battery cover. I spent 10 mins to open it at the first time. you need to move...

Targus Wireless Optical PAWM10U Mouse

Strengths: Easy to Install. Power Management.

Weakness: Battery cover is difficult to remove.

It worked fine with Wireless Internet on my laptop. But sometimes interference with other RF devices causes slow response from the mouse. Blue LED from receiver is bright and is distracting. It uses generic driver and is very easy to install. For $30 with $20 MIR, it is a good deal.
