I'd look in to Microsoft Intellimouse. I have the wireless explorer ($59) and it's great. The batteries last me about a month. Only reason I went with M$ was because their mice match my desk
Am I still here?

You should buy the MS IntelliMouse Explorer with IntelliEye 3. It is the best mouse ever, even hardcore gamers think it is the best. Everyone I know that have tried it agrees that it is the best.

Currently using a Logitech Cordless mouse.

This Logitech has two buttons and a scroll wheel. Has worked well for me so far, though I think it drags with a little more friction (heavier because of batteries is possibly part of the cause of that).

I prefer 5 btns - but only if they work, which is what they stopped doing properly on my former Kensington Optical Mouse in a box. That optical mouse was fast and light, but I do not miss the cord (good riddance to mad mouseigliitis!) or the way its buttons gradually died out on me.
