HP Bluetooth Pc Card Mouse - Great invention!!! 
2007-11-17
I was a bit skeptical about this product before purchasing it. It may appear that it would be uncomfortable in your hand due to its edges and angle. But it works and feels great. No more bulky mouse stuck in my bookbag. It is quick and easy, recharges and stores in the laptop. The only improvement that I could think of is a scroll wheel of some sort. They will probably come out with it someday. But even with out it is a great product. I highly recomment this mouse.
Portable, Compact But a Little Quirky 
2007-10-10
I purchased this bluetooth PCMCIA card mouse to use with a new tablet PC. It is a wonderful design and allows the perfect way to stow and charge a portable wireless mouse. It is light, compact and easy to use. It would be perfect if only it did not lose connection with the laptop from time to time. I have used Bluetooth keyboards and mice before and this mouse suffers from the same signal stability issues that my previously owned devices did. Sometimes it fails to connect right away, when I first activate the mouse (by flipping down the kickstand at the bottom of the device). It eventually connects and usually works fine for several minutes. However, if I let the mouse sit for a few minutes, allowing it to go into power conservation mode, it sometimes has a hard time connecting to the laptop again. I have removed the Bluetooth drivers and reinstalled. I have used the standard Windows Bluetooth drivers and also tried the custom drivers downloaded from the HP website. The results are always the same. The odd thing is that both the laptop and this Bluetooth card mouse are made by HP. I would like to think that HP would utilize better quality control when marketing a device that proudly carries their namesake. Still, this mouse provides an excellent way to stow and carry an always charged pointing device. I am giving it 4 stars because of its wonderful design and perfect portability. I believe that anyone considering this mouse should realize that it is not suitable as a normal, full-time pointing device. It is a perfect backup mouse for those times when you are on the road and do not have another pointing device available. If you need an extremely portable device that can be stowed in the laptop itself, while its internal battery is charged from the voltage supplied by the PCMCIA card slot, and also allowing a completely wireless alternative to using the laptop trackpad, this mouse is a pretty good investment. I mostly blame the Bluetooth wireless technology itself for the connection problems. Until the Bluetooth wireless technology matures (if ever), I feel that this mouse performs just as well as any other Bluetooth wireless mouse on the market. As far as rating this device for convenience and style, you just can't get any better.
Almost exactly what I've wanted.

I am very happy with the HP Bluetooth Card Mouse. It stores nicely in the PCMCIA slot of my laptop and stays charged up and ready to use whenever I'm on the go. The only thing I wish it had is a scroll wheel. Although nothing in the description mentioned a wheel, I was hoping the 1/4 inch strip between the buttons would scroll when I slid my finger up and down. Too bad -- I'm addicted to the wheel on my desktop mouse. That would be a cool feature. But overall, I am extremely pleased. No dongle to break. No batteries to replace. No clunky wires to drag out. And my coworkers keep saying, "What is that? That is so cool!"
I did have a bit of trouble installing it, but that was more the fault of my HP Laptop (NC6230). It had an HP proprietary Bluetooth interface that wouldn't install the mouse. Once I got the standard Bluetooth interface installed (with help from the HP Website) installing the mouse was a breeze.
Nice concept, but works *only* on hard, flat surfaces 
2007-09-30
Travel mice are intended for, well, traveling, when often not even a desk is available, so you end using your mouse on whatever vaguely flat surface is handy: the arm rest of a chair, the seat next to you, your pant leg, etc.. Most travel mice do just fine with these surfaces, but not this one.
As an example, I was just trying to use the PC card mouse on the wide armrest of one of those comfy chairs at Starbucks. It worked okay while I was just moving the cursor around, but as soon as I clicked, it went haywire. The problem is that when you click, you press down on the mouse (obviously), which presses into the surface it's on. If it's a soft surface, it deforms a bit.
On a normal mouse, this wouldn't be an issue, since the hard shell keeps the surface a constant distance from the little camera on the bottom of the mouse (near the red light), which detects motion. But on this mouse, the only thing keeping the surface away from the camera is the front edge of the card and the kickstand. If you're on a hard surface, that's fine, but on something soft, the surface squishes closer to the camera lens whenever you click. The mouse sees this as motion, so the cursor jumps 20 or 30 pixels with each click, making it totally unusable on anything but very firm surfaces.
As long as you have a desktop nearby, the mouse works as advertised, but I don't see it as a replacement for a travel mouse (especially since it has no scroll wheel). It's handy for emergencies, though, when all you've brought is your laptop, with the mouse safely tucked inside.
Excellent for meetings 
2008-06-13
I am a corperate stooge and usually lug around a trackball with dongle to meetings all day. This little fella has changed all that. It plugs into your PC card slot on your laptop and not only does that store it and secure it, but it also charges it. It is small, and i have huge hands, but it is not an issue. It seemd fragle at first, but my has seen fire and rain and still functions well. My only complaint is that the cursor is sometimes jumpy on dark suraces, but i have used a peice of paper as a mouse pad and it works great. This is NOT an everyday use all the time mouse. Much too small for that. But as i said for meetings and traveling light this is a life saver.
Pairing with Vista Business on Lenovo Thinkpad T61 
2008-04-15
Two points to this review
Item 1 - Bluetooth pairing with Vista
There is an error in the HP installation guide that comes with the mouse. To successfully pair with Vista Business on my Lenovo Thinkpad T61, do NOT enter the passkey "0000" during pairing. Instead, leave it as choice #4 - no passkey and it will works.
At first, I followed the included HP installation guide and entered the passkey. The mouse can pair, can connect but cannot move. After googling, searching HP suppport site, mogo support site, vista, lenovo and all the support site, I stumbled onto this requirement....silly me.
Item 2 - No scrolling
I noticed that many people says that this is a missing function. Actually, it may even be better than the Mogo Moust X54 as I heard the new scroll bar on that mouse does not react well. On the mogo mouse or the HP one, there is a FREE software made by a company called Pointix. Although this software has been abandon, Newton apparently er...picked it up and offer it free plus an activation crack. You can find it under scrolling software at Newton's site.
With this software, your right button when depress allows you to scroll in 4 direction and when press once function as normal as a right-click. Wonderful software !!!
Well, the item works well, fits in my hand well. 5 stars!

Card Mouse 
2008-02-09
Works great! Will considerable save me from toting along a mouse for working in other locations. During a recent presentation is also worked great as a remote tool for advancing the presention.
Clever, useful product with no negatives 
2008-02-09
This is the rebadged Mogo, which fits the standard PCMCIA slot. A satisfying product if you have that slot, integrated Bluetooth, and a dislike for the pencil eraser or touchpad. Battery life, connection reliability, "feel", and solidity are all superb.
The free Pointix software enables excellent scrolling despite the lack of the center wheel.
If there were ten stars I'd give this elegant product all of them!
