GREEN! This is the most comfortable mouse I've ever used. It's even better than the MX Revo i have on my desktop. I have two of these and they are much better than the Nano VX, though you don't get the nice tiny receiver. These are getting a bit hard to find as they are supplanted by the Nano. In for 2 more! (verified it's at HI Costco too).
Very good mouse except that it only uses one AA battery which last much shorter time than many other Logitech mouses. I change the battery about every 3 weeks ( I use it more than 8 hours every day).

OMG...I can't believe you're complaining about 3 weeks use of 8 hours per day. Get a few eneloop AA's. I keep a few spare in my laptop bag and have never even needed to swap them out. Battery life is much better than I anticapated.

Great mouse. I used it for a couple of years until the right button started acting up. However Logitech sent me a new retail box as soon as I gave them proof of purchase (email from Buy.com).
How does this compare to the VX Nano? I tried a Nano before it is too slim. I have a V220 and it is the perfect size and fits in the ball of the palm perfectly.

It fits better and has extra buttons. I like it over the Nano except for the larger USB insert, but that doesn't bother me anyway.
I like this much better than the nano, thought I was "upgrading" with getting the nano, but this version (vx rev) has much better placement and the wheel is actually a button, rather than a manual switch (for the gears) on the nano. The bigger receiver isn't really that much of a problem with this mouse, since it slips inside of the mouse easily when not in use.
this mouse is worth every penny even at full price. i've one of each (VX and MX) but might buy a spare just in case, thank OP!!
with respect to the nano, nano has a somewhat better dongle (its nearly flat so it doesnt stick out of USB) but to my taste its too flat and loses alot of the comfort that you get from the VX. i dont know possibly you can get used to that but i had it for couple of days and never "connected" with it.
Weird that it only happens to them on macs. Also I haven't heard of any problems from pc users but I haven't really researched it much either.

I've had the VX Revolution for about a year and a half with no issues with my MacBook Pro or my PC. I've been on tons of wireless networks for work (companies) and leisure (coffee shops, friends homes) with no problem.

VX rev is a great mouse. Love the zoom feature. My battery lasts for 6 months or more and I forget to turn it off. No prob with wifi either. Much better than the MS bluetooth mouse I tried for awhile.

I have a V220 and it is the perfect size and fits in the ball of the palm perfectly.I use a VX Nano on the go and VX Revolution when docked to a 24" LCD at home. The VX Nano is a bit on the slim side, but I appreciate the smaller size for portability. I also had a V270, which is similar to the V220 and I know what you mean about it fitting really well. That bit of bump in the palm area really helps. The VX Revolution was not a great fit for my small-ish hands. I find the thumb wheel and side buttons a bit of a reach. But overall the mouse is great and the smooth scrolling feature itself is worth every penny.

great deal! I'll be stopping by Costco later. I still have the first battery I used in mine.. that was back in march. Still going strong although the battery meter shows one bar left. I use it every day for 8hr or more.

Could you give the Logitech contact information?
Compared to LX7 (and other mouses I used), this mouse is index finger friendly with shorter click throw and requiring less force. I now use this as my desktop mouse even though it's a bit small for my hand.

Comfortable mouse, however its fragile. I dropped mine ~2 feet at the most. Stopped working after. Luckily I bought it at costco and they just returned it. It is small, though (I guess not by notebook standards). I prefer my MX1000 (or my new MX1100), and I even have small hands.
