Bluetooth Mouse
Lawrence
I currently have both a tablet & a Netbook with Bluetooth. However, my hands
are big enough that I find most of the Bluetooth mice uncomfortable to use.
Are there any full-size Bluetooth mice available?

that is the same size as all of their other "standard" mice. Pretty
sure that logitech sells some as well and many companies such as dell
vend the same hardware with their name on it.
Might also take a look at http://mogostore.com/ as they have some
interesting mice that ride and charge in the pcmcia slot but are large
enough to fit large hands.

The information in the "MoGo Store" website us rather limited. A lot
more details are to be found on the main MoGo site:

Really valid recommendation!
One of the main advantages is that they can be stored inside the
computer and there is no "extra" to forget when leaving the house or
loose it when on the road.
Immediately after its appearance I bought the "classical" PCMCIA MoGo
mouse (also branded as "HP Card mouse) and later I got the "MoGo
Presenter Mouse X54T" which I use for the screenshows in my lectures.
Fantastic device. Only disadvantage: My good old HP tc1100 does gave a
PCMCIA card slot and I did not yet find an adapter for PCMCIA to X54
{siiigh} so that I can not store it inside the computer and need a
loading cable :-(

Do you have a model number for the MS Mouse?

You're right, *expensive*. ;-)
I forgot to mention earlier that I'm left-handed, so I need one that can be
used ambidextrously.
Unfortunately, I have some *feeling* problems with my hands, so, I also need
one at least 5" in length. My favorite wireless was the Logitech Cordless
Click; however, I don't really like the wireless dongle sticking out when I
need to move around. I've actually gotten pretty good at using the wireless
mouse on my shirt or leg. :-)

Yea, expensive, but rechargeable, and ambidexterous.

I found one of these a week ago on eBay. Paid only $35 .. I charged it and
used it for the first time this morning. It feels really cheap, like it is
made of too thin plastic, but it works well. [only used it for about 20
minutes.]

You got it *cheap* <g>.
But it's not "cheap" at all in the sense of "poor"!

So it's just your premature first impression which is "cheap".
I have several of these "mouses" (mice <bg>).
One of them, the x54 "Presenter" is a true essential for my work.
I would not want to miss any of the different models.
