I want to buy this mouse to replace the LX8 mouse that came with my Logitech Wave kb/mouse set. Do you guys think I could just replace the mouse using the same receiver of Logitech Wave Desktop? I don't want to plug in both receivers.

Unlikely.

[mirage]

Unlikely.

Yeah, I thought so too :(

But anyway, I have been eyeing this mouse since some time. After reading the review here and posting my question, I have just found a refurbished one on ebay for the half price of Newegg and pulled the trigger :) I will post how it goes.

Well I can not tell if it is as much as you :), but I really like the mouse now that it arrived. Its ergonomics is much better than LX8, the wheel with the two scroll modes is very original and nice. I actually prefer using 2xAA batteries as in MX1100 instead of rechargeable internal batteries. There is one less clutter on my desk, the charging station. And I already use NiMH batteries anyway. When needed in every 1-2 months, swapping the batteries with charged ones is easy for me. Although the forward and backward buttons are placed at better positions than LX8, they are still not as good as the MS Intellimouse Explorer for Bluetooth (http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-IntelliMouse-Explorer-for-Bluetooth/dp/B0002E5P1I) I use with another computer. Oh and the thumb button, I am thinking about a better use for it.

By the way, the receiver of Cordless Desktop Wave desktop did not connect with the MX1100. Yet another USB receiver behind the computer for me.:rolleyes: I wish every wireless peripheral would have been Bluetooth.

Hey! I found a silly (i.e. fun) game to play with this mouse, Spin the Wheel !!! Open a long webpage (such as this thread) in Firefox and spin the wheel while trying to come as close as possible to the bottom without hitting the end. Wheeee :D Another good way to drain the batteries of a laptop ;)
