Hi, it works just fine with Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 7. I have lots of wireless mice and generally prefer those over corded ones. But this mouse is so smooth, I often use it instead of my cordless mouse both at work and at home. The documentation is a little sparse, so if when you are using it you don't find an answer there, check the online help for the Brookstone Scan Mouse, they are identical and Brookstone's documentation is a little more thorough.

I use it on my Win8 laptop fine on the good side its 400 dpi optical resolution, not super high but good enough, especially if you want to grab some text. The 11.7" x 16.5" maximum scan size lets you capture a large area. On the bad side is the "Scan Button" on the side is very easy to hit with your thumb when using as a regular mouse, then you have to cancel out to get back to what you were doing. All-in-All very good if you will be using it. USB 2.0 only Plus they have a website where you can get any new drivers.

It is not a question whether it supports Windows 8, it is a question whether Windows 8 will support it. It should. Yes.

It should work with windows 8 provided you have the necessary software. I believe this is an oem sale so software is not included. That can make it very pricey.

Hi Cyrstal,Yes, the device is now compatible with Windows 8 Operating System. If the box or the disc that came with the unit itself does not have the driver for Windows 8 yet, you may refer to this link for free driver download.

Per the packaging it came in, it is compatible with windows 8. I have Windows 7 and it took a few times to get it up and running. If you want to see the compatibility on the package, I can send a picture of it, as I saved it.

No, it needs an update to the flash reader which is not compatible with Windows 8. That is my only disappointment with this devise.
