I have a Logitech laser mouse, and the USB receiver is seriously tiny. It sticks out a quarter inch or so, if that. Also the mouse itself will work on anything that isn't a clear surface.

But it only has the standard buttons so if you're looking for one of those that has the scroll ball and like 5 buttons on the side and shit then keep looking.

Is it one of the ones where the usb receiver clips to the bottom of the mouse? Those look cool.

No, but I mean the receiver is tiny anyway.

Used to use this before it broke. The receiver clips on the bottom and it only uses one AA battery. Also it was on sale for maybe $10 so it was a good price.

That's what I have only it's silver. I haven't had it long but apparently the battery life is insane. I think the guy who sold it said he had his for two or three years and changed the batteries once.

holy shit that usb thing is small.
Yeah I looked at it on the logitech site and it is really expensive.
I really like this one http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mice_pointers/mice/devices/143&cl=us,en

But $40 for a mouse...

I have a standard 4-button wireless Logitech that I got on eBay for $12, it has lasted about a year and I really have no complaints

No.

EDIT: MIND = BLOWN

I did a bit of investigating and if you take off the battery cover there's a spot INSIDE THE MOUSE to put it.

Glad I could help. I think that I saw it on eBay for $20. I will probably snag that.
