I've seen a bunch of threads about folks having problems with this combo, but just had to chime in that I bought one on an impluse today (the mouse, not the 17" - although that was an impluse too!) and it works like a charm. Super easy setup and it's not "jerky" as some have reported. I have not yet been able to get the left and right navigation buttons to work - even though I've got a MS trackball with the navigation buttons working just fine. Hmmm... go figure.
