Cursor control is a TOP concern for me. How well does it work for you?

I dont use it too often, but i wish you could adjust the speed of the cursor. It works well but i usually resort back to the computer mouse.

I don't use this for cursor control at all, partly because I don't need to and partly because I felt it would be a lot easier my touch pad than on this device. I did play with it enough to know it does control the cursor, but it's not great control.

I have not used this in a long time. But my memory is that I had no cursor control problems. I used it mostly with powerpoint presentations (my audience needed pictures or I'd loose them with verbal droning only) and a couple of times with a software program. I was teaching kids and I needed to be moving around. I would have gotten miffed if this did not work and I had to keep going back to my laptop at the podium. I also used a smaller, cheaper one that I bought at Target. "Targa" brand I think? I had no problems with this either. You may find you have several good options, esp. now several years later. FWIW.

I use the touchpad only and have not had problems with it. Sometimes the cursor jumps when I am typing, but I have had this occasionally with other computers. Hope this is helpful.

I haven't. The only issue I have experienced with this mouse is horizontal scrolling using the mouse wheel. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I haven't been able to figure out why. Vertical scrolling has always worked for me.

No - it's very clicky in each of the four directions, and slightly sticky. I've found that even just using it as arrow keys is difficult, w.r.t. getting precise motion.

I have not had problems with the power source. However the cursor is a nightmare and has made this beautiful computer all but unusable. I think that the issue is with an all too sensitive trackpad, but I cannot seem to figure out a way to turn it off.

When that happens to me, I realize it's because one of my thumbs touched the trackpad--and I agree it's a pain in the components. I'll bet there is a setting to turn off the trackpad somewhere (I use a real wired mouse), but I've managed to live with it well enough so far.

Oh yeah, thats mostly what I use it for. it works amazing, you can tune the dpi to the speed you want and it fits comfortably. im noticing however that it'll freeze for a second and start to go slow for a second, but I'm not sure if its the mouse or something else

Yes. When the keyboard is in control a cursor appears. Functions just like a laptop. Works well.

I use a software called X-mouse button control to control all the mappings of my mouse. Super useful software and best of all it's free and works with every mouse I have ever had.

Yes it has the capability and i have used that feature once but i cant say if it is as responsive as using an actual mouse.

I have had trouble with it with Windows 10. It causes frustrating unresponsive web pages after a recent update (roughly two weeks ago). When I don't use the mouse, the problem is resolved (apparently)

No. Not with both hands. Even with 1 hand it is hard. Only way I can get cursor to move is with using only 1 finger

My experience is it treats your touch just like a mouse. You can specify in settings whether that is a left or right click or a select and slide.

well, i would say it could scroll easily down a page from 8 feet away, but if you intend to use the cursor at that distance, it is going to be choppy at best. I use it from a distance of 6 feet occasionally with the receiver being in direct sight of the mouse and it chugs along happily

Same problems here: middle clicks are often ignored, and when they do register, there is a very noticeable delay. Trying to use this mouse with GIMP (a graphics editor) is a nightmare.

Yes, actually the layout of control and shift are very good, on the center pads. The two complaints about key layout are the ~ location is very counter intuitive for me. (it where left control would normally be). The Insert key is acccessed by the keypad toggle, which is annoying for ctrl-alt-ins, for vmware virtual machines. With that said they kes are trivially remappable. The keyboard height is taller than a standard keyboard, and won't push under my desk on the keyboard tray. I own two of these now.

I own it and use it, It is not easy to set, but with a little patience it only takes a minute, once you got the touch for it, it is quick.For me the most important thing is that it is effective for capture,and it doesn't hurt the mouse,i does both
