Anybody tried this oddity?
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008OEHV6U
Read the reviews, mostly positive, but some people seem to be having serious connectivity issues, as it uses bluetooth (but that's another issue).
My main question is, does the center scrolling area provide feedback in a similar way when scrolling (vibrations) like the Arc Touch or the Explorer Touch (and I guess Sculpt Touch)?
Arc Touch: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003UT6C9G Explorer Touch: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00519UZM8 Sculpt Touch: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008OEHPPM
I love how the touch scrolling pad on the Arc/Explorer feels. If the Wedge does not provide similar feedback, how does it feel when scrolling?

i tried it at the store when Windows 8 launched and didn't like it, the ergonomics were poor
i use a regular mouse, and for awhile used a large wireless touchpad for the desktop although with 8.1 I rarely use it anymore 7/22/2014 4:14:56 PM |

I hate it. I also hate every other Microsoft mouse I've tried or been forced to use. The mouse that comes with the Ergo keyboard combo actually gave me a fucking repetitive use injury.
Back to Logitech forever. 7/24/2014 6:27:04 PM |

I ordered the Explorer Touch, that shit is golden.
Feels great, very responsive, and the touch pad's haptic feedback is like orgasm for the index finger. 7/24/2014 11:46:37 PM |

Usually the unusually colored accessories are more expensive, but the black one linked in the OP is $17. 7/27/2014 9:23:56 PM |

I use a corded HP laser mouse that came with a previous desktop. Works just fine. 7/27/2014 11:11:14 PM |

I use a mechanical Hawley Mouse Mark II three-button mouse that plugs into a serial port. The only downside is having to unplug my dial-up modem drive every time I want to use it, so usually I just say fuck GUI and just use the command prompt. 7/28/2014 4:35:44 AM |

Update: Best mouse ever... http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Explorer-Touch-Mouse-Sangria/dp/B00519TSG2
$50 mouse for $14, performs like a $50 mouse.
The touch scroll pad is the best invention ever. 8/8/2014 1:07:57 AM |
