I just purchased this item and without need of instructions was able to insert the usb into my computer and get it going. It didn't install any additional software on my computer, just took a second to recognize the new piece of hardware. Also, the batteries (energizer) come included in the package so it was ready to use as soon as I got home. Good thing cause I always forget to get batteries! Now, the batteries go placed into the mouse by sliding off the top cover (where your palm will usually rest during use) away from your left and right click buttons. It was very smooth to slide it off and I had no issues inserting the batteries. Also, it comes with little plastic inserts that can assist if needing to remove the batteries later to replace.
One thing that i absolutely love is the fact that the usb receiver is able to be carried in the mouse itself. it fits right in the middle of the batteries. Perfect for me cause i will use for work and I travel a lot with my computer and mouse. No more losing these little usb receivers, yay!
Overall, the mouse does not feel cheap at all. I certainly am happy with my purchase, especially cause I wasn't going in with any expectations but a having a cute looking mouse! This product really raised the bar and I'm so glad I also got the matching keyboard now. I was hesitant to purchase at first and so glad I opted to.

This mouse far surpassed my expectation.

PRO: It is comfortable to use, and the light-up colors are very nice and defined.
The 5 different modes is a very nice touch for all gamers. They have ultra-slow to ultra - fast. And you can customize all 5 colors!
The buttons, oh the buttons. very useful especially when macroing.
Solid wire, though it sometimes gets in the way, but hey.....as long as it doesn't break it's all good.

CONS: When I find one i'll let you know. But I doubt that will happen.

Overall Review: "10/10" -IGN

Fun, interactive and a darling face sculpt on Ruby Rails! Not to mention all the fun geeky details of the character's interests!

My 8 year old and 6 year old daughters love calico critters!  They have many other animals, but this mouse family is so adorable!
It is well made, and the cloth they are wearing is so cute too.  I am sure this will be their favorite toy for a long time!!

Been using this mouse for about a week. It's cute - the green color is bright and fun! And it moves very smoothly and is really responsive. Great mouse!

It is a lot prettier and even more sophisticated then it looks online. The quality is great for what I paid, the stones are set well and the band is sturdy. I would definetly reccomned this product...

I was a dinosaur nut as a little girl. Denied my passion for reptiles and amphibians by my parents, I grew up to be OBSESSED with them.  Never understood what the big deal about T. rex was after all it has those awful huge legs, fanny and tail and then those disgusting little ineffectual taloned arms I always felt like they just assembled the bones wrong.  Always liked nice biters; guard dogs, crocodiles etc.  Stuffed toys are almost always just these placid things user "projects" on, but this T. Rex is a blast!  Your hand slips through a pocket overlapping his shoulderblades and up into his jaws and you can make him chase stuff, snarl and bite the stuffing out of it!  Mine is 29" inches long; I don't know where these goofy measurements posted came from; it's plenty big, menacing and squishy enough.  I love to look over it's eyes that stick up on top of it's fuzzy salmon-colored head while snuggling it and look past the pitbull-sized jaw full of neat little fangs into the nice protruding pink tongue.  This is the best stuffed toy on earth, no one should be without one!  Thank you Wild Republic for making this wonderful toy!

Hands down one of the best mice I've ever used!

Pros:

-Size: I have rather large hands, and finding a good mouse that fits comfortably in my hand isn't always the easiest task. This mouse works well for  large hands, and my fiancee (who has small hands) has no problem gripping the mouse either.
-Design: This mouse looks WICKED. Words cannot describe how amazing it looks. Has a thumb rest, the LEDs are vibrant, and the inside kind of looks like a car engine. Really sweet. Plus it has a fiber cord which I'm in love with.
-Features: Pulsating LED lights, which are okay. I primarily keep it on the red LED because it matches my build scheme better. Really nice having a DPI button built into the mouse. Four different settings which make it nice when switching games or just needing a change.

Cons:
I only have one con, and it's not a suuuuper big problem, just more of me complaining. The middle scroll wheel tends to squeak when I'm using it. My computer is running four fans, my CPU cooler, PSU, and GPU, so I can't really hear it unless I listen for it. If my computer was significantly quieter though, it would probably be enough to annoy me. Nothing I would return it over!

All in all, this is an AMAZING mouse. I honestly don't think that I'm going to ever switch, because it's just so amazing. Thank you for an outstanding product!

Marisol was an impulse purchase today at my local Target. I'd planned to get her a bit later on through Amazon after I'd seen her in person, but when I actually DID see her in person, I just couldn't resist! The photos online of this doll do not do her justice at all.

For starters, her clothes are very bright, but not quite as neon as stock images show. She also has much subtler hair and skin. Her hair is layered in purple and pink and her skin is in fact a sort of lavender colour. The colours in person are much more palatable than in photos; I originally hesitated to buy her for that reason.

She is a solid centimetre (or maybe even more!) taller than the other ghouls I have, purely because of her amazingly long feet. Her hands are proportioned very similarly and both are sculpted with "fur" details! It's little things like this that make me love the MH doll line. Given the attention they're giving her toes, I hope that she gets a "Cinderella" costume of some sort in future, or perhaps an "I love Shoes!" fashion pack? That would be just fantastic. One thing to pay attention to: because she's so much bigger than the other ghouls, her knees have been done differently. They are tighter and do not rotate to the side as easily, so she's more stable on her feet. She still doesn't balance well without a stand, however.

My particular doll suffers from the infamous wonky eye syndrome at certain angles, but every doll on the shelf had similar issues. She also has a bit of glue seepage that I plan to take care of in a few days (and expect will get worse with time, since I live in such a warm climate). Otherwise, I'm thrilled by this doll. She's really quite magnificent and I'm far fonder of her than I thought I'd be!

Another point worthy of note is that Marisol came in the new, mostly plastic packaging that MH is now using. They're a bit of a pain to get open without ripping the package apart (which makes me sad, as I like to save some of the box art), but are pretty well-designed for what I assume is meant to be an anti-swap, anti-theft measure. The stand for this doll came wrapped in plastic and hidden away behind a cardboard panel, and her journal was sandwiched between similar layers with an arrow on front warning you not to cut across the journal by mistake.

Imagine mice that can e-mail, set up Mouse Blogs, post news on Mouse Book and check facts on Whiskerpedia.  In Prudence Breitrose's delightful new book MOUSENET, all mice have become computer literate, but are hampered in their evolution because computers are simply too big - from a mouse perspective - and can only be used when humans (and cats!) are not looking.

And so the story begins, telling the tale of 10 year old Megan, her uncle, the inventor of the tiny Thumbtop, her mother the research professional who studies the effects of global warming in far off places, the father she hardly knows, her stepmother who really wants to give her a Complete Make Over, her step-cousin Joey who spies on her, trying to steal her secrets and her funny, wonderful, intelligent friends, the mice of Clan 1578, their interpreter Trey and the head of Mouse Nation, known behind his back as The Big Cheese.  I learned to love and respect them all as they set out to provide a computer for every mousehole and change the world for the better.

Along the way there are missteps, dangers, marvelous insights into the human condition as seen from the perspective of another species, and transformational moments when evil simply cannot hold up under the power and logic of good.

This is an absolutely charming, positive book - a totally appropriate gift for the holidays.  My grandson loved it.  I loved it.  It's a winner!

I got the pink version of this mouse as a gift last Christmas, and as someone who's been through several portable USB mice, this is by far my favorite so far. I get compliments on it all the time, which have ranged from "Oh, how cute!" to "Man, that's like the Mercedes Benz of mice."

But looks aside (and this is a gorgeous mouse), I really like it for the following reasons:

1. It's very portable without sacrificing size. The USB plug is tiny, so you can keep it in your laptop constantly if you like. If not, there is a tiny little compartment in the bottom of the mouse you can put it in. I had a ultratiny USB mouse that was about a quarter of the size of this thing, and it just wasn't worth it - way too uncomfortable for daily use. This mouse is about the size of a typical mouse, and fits very comfortably in my hand.

2. Range - I can be across the room controlling my computer if I like. Admittedly, I never have any particular reason to be doing that, but if you need that sort of range, this mouse provides it.

3. Battery life - Just remember to turn the mouse off when you're not using it, and the battery will last practically forever. There's a little switch on the bottom that's very easy to get to. It's so easy to do I just do it by habit now - I hardly have to think about it.

As far as the software goes, it works great out of the box with Windows Vista. Like others have pointed out, the support on Windows 7 isn't the best. I just upgraded to Windows 7, and the response time of the mouse was a bit slow just plugging it in and going with it. This was quickly fixed by downloading the Intellipoint drivers for Windows 7. Now my favorite mouse works just as beautifully as it did before. :) I'd highly recommend this mouse.

It is so pretty.  I have had many compliments on it and the mouse works great on it.
