    Woo,I know of four...but three are rather difficult to use as they can't navigate to well and the fourth is liable to clock watch too much:D

    A4Tech BatteryFREE NB-30 - mouse

    I'm on my third one of these, been having them for years between desk-top and lap-top. No batteries, mouse is wire-free, mouse mat can be used on your lap or on the settee cushion! Great! And good value for the ten quid or so. Highly recommended.

    Great!

    BTW to explain the three I got -

    Number 1 had one on my desk-top for ages. Then got a laptop. Didn't get along with the touch pad so bought one of those half-sized mouses but it gave me awful cramp in my hand so brought the BF down from the DT. Unfortunately, didn't appreciate     it wasn't a good idea to run wire from the USB plug at right angles over the back of the table - ended up (I think) breaking a wire in the cable. Nixed that one. Bought number 2.

    Then I was trying to use an old mouse on my DT but was so used to using BF that I ended up buying one for the DT again - enter number 3!

    Didn't want you to think it was the fault of the mouse.

    Moral is, if running off a side USB port on the LT, make sure you keep the wire straight as it emerges from the USB plug.
