Have you adopted a mostly wireless lifestyle yet? How hard was it?

I bought the Motorola Bluetooth Mouse from Woot recently to go with my Motorola Bluetooth Keyboard w/ Touchpad I bought earlier.

I think it's an awesome mobile mouse for the price. I had no problems whatsoever pairing it to my PC, which is in the next room (I use a second monitor connected through the wall to watch Netflix). I have experienced no loss of signal from the opposite side of the room, maybe 12 feet to the PC through the wall. With the wireless USB mouse I was using, I would have to sit up in bed and lean far forward so the mouse would work. The other great thing about this mouse is that it seems to work on any surface, including crumpled up fabric and my leg; impossible with the other 3 wireless USB mice I have.

I also bought this mouse about a month ago. Works great. No issues yet.

Paired fine with my old Macbook Pro running Leopard but not Windows XP that I run on a partition. May not be XP's fault but mine... not sure. It hasn't bothered me enough to investigate...

OK, I'm in for 3 at this price! Can't wait to see if they work as good as everyone is claiming.

Purchased the BT mouse the last time it was on WOOT. Was DOA. Contacted Support. They suggested I replace the battery with a fresh one. Did - that Mouse was still dead. Contacted Support where I was told to wait a while so here it is 2 months or so and the mouse is dead as a doornail. I would say both Support and the mouse are dead as a doornail. Beware of the doornail!!

2 months seems like a long time, there - please feel free to drop support@woot.com a line about your case and let's see if we can get that resolved!

I was in for 2 of the BT mice. They both arrived and both worked fine out of the box. The problem I have with them is that they "sleep" or stop responding too quickly after the previous motion. So as I read a page and then go to select or scroll....nothing. The mouse has to be moved back and forth and sometimes the wheel or a button has to be pushed before the pointer will move. This is with the standard BT stack on a ThinkPad with BT 2.1 EDR. Have not found a solution yet. Otherwise they work fine, even with my ICS 4.01 phone.

I bought 2 of these mice and so far the 1st one I have received will not pair with anything. So far I have tried to pair it with 4 computers with no luck. It does not even show up a a discovered device. New batteries, switched to PC and PIP-Boy, nada. Tempted to open up the other one which is a stocking stuffer.
