Microsoft Mobile 6000 Wireless Notebook Mouse MHC-00001

Monday, February 15th, 2010

Microsoft has been launching there new wireless notebook mouse lineup and today I am going to look at one of the latest and most popular products that they have created are called the Microsoft Mobile 6000 Wireless Notebook Mouse. The mouse uses the BlueTrack laser and has a tiny USB transceiver.

This one from Microsoft uses BlueTrack laser technology and has a tiny Nano transceiver that doesn’t need to be unplugged form the notebook when on the go. The mouse has 2.4GHz wireless with a 30 foot range just about. On the bottom you can find a on/off switch to maximize battery life and another notable feature about this is that it has five programmable buttons which really do come in handy.

I found that this laptop mouse had excellent tracking on all surfaces I used it on. I tested this mobile mouse on every surface I could find – the bluetrack laser worked perfect on all surfaces and had good accuracy as well even on rough and horrible surfaces for mice (lol, well I did have to test it so I did everything I could think of).

The Microsoft Mobile 6000 Wireless Notebook Mouse is the best wireless mobile mouse Microsoft offers. The tiny Nano transceiver makes connecting a breeze even for new notebook users. This 6000 series wireless notebook mouse is a quality built laptop and notebook mouse for any mobile user to a full time computer professional.

Microsoft Explorer Mini BlueTrack Wireless Notebook Mouse

Monday, September 28th, 2009

I recently picked up a wireless notebook mouse by Microsoft called a Explorer Mini with BlueTrack Mobile Mouse. So far, I am very satisfied with the quality and usability of the mouse (both on Mac and PC). BlueTrack is definitely not a gimmick, and it turns virtually any surface into a “portable laptop” mouse pad especially since I’d never think in a 100 years that the couch would make a decent notebook mouse pad, LOL!

My favorites about the Microsoft explorer mini wireless notebook mouse are that the mouse glides effortlessly and is very comfortable using even after long periods of time. The USB dongle is very small compared to most wireless notebook mice available and the 5 programmable buttons (worked perfect on both a Mac and PC) are a huge advantage for any work that you need to tackle. I even like how they removed any clicking sound from using the mouse wheel and spinning it feels so awesome… a little to much fun. What really amazes me and has to be one of the best features IMO which is that it only uses 1 AA battery which you don’t have to replace often even with daily or constant use.

I know most gamers would scream at the thought of using a wireless notebook mouse for gaming – but I’m not much of a gamer anymore. I have to say that so far in the free trial games I have tried like WoW and a few some first person shooter games, the Microsoft explorer wireless notebook mouse works flawlessly. No latency, no stuttering/lag, no issues at all this laptop mouse.

After you use one, you’ll be definitely recommending the Microsoft Explorer Mini wireless laptop mouse to friends and family. If you are looking for a desktop version, try the Explorer with BlueTrack. Slightly larger, comes with a charging station and is made for desktop users. You cannot go wrong regardless of which one fits your needs better.

What Is A BlueTrack Technology Wireless Notebook Mouse?

Thursday, August 20th, 2009

In any bluetrack wireless notebook mouse, the sensor has been upgraded to a new technoo, the light and the component configuration have all been optimized for the best possible surface image for a variety of conditions. BlueTrack Technology provides the wireless notebook mouse and the computer with exceptionally accurate and detailed information for advanced tracking on almost any surface.

Bluetrack allows blue light which a sensor captures a high-contrast image of the surface. Basically the blue light beneficially interacts with fluorescent dyes within the surface to increase the amount of reflected light relative to an infrared laser beam. The physics is similar to the “blue light” used in crime-scene shows to examine surfaces.

All bluetrack computer mice works by emitting light that bounces back to a camera sensor. The sensor “sees” the surface and takes a picture – actually thousands of pictures per second. A custom CMOS ASIC analyzes the information in the photos to determine what’s changed from the previous image and sends that information to the computer. The computer responds to that information by moving the laptop mouse on more than 40 surfaces, including carpet, velvet, rattan mats, hardwood floors, finely polished wood surfaces, and lots more. BlueTrack Technology performed on almost every surface tested without any problems at all.
