Anyone have one and would like to comment about it?

I'm very interested in this product, over Apple's own Bluetooth Mouse

The Gadgeteer reviewed the mouse. while it looks neat, i think it's overpriced for what it is.

Given my own experiences with MacMice products and what I've read about them, I'd avoid it like the plague.

I read that review, and the "mouse skipping" issue is interesting.

From the photos, it looks like he/she is using the mouse on a wood table.


I've found that the lines in the wood makes the mouse skip, but when you put it on a solid color surface, the skipping stops.


I wonder if that's the cause of the skipping in that case.


hopefully more people will be able to talk about their experiences as it ships.

This was my own experience with a different product of theirs.

iFlex...defective or just crap?

I also politely emailed them about the problem and got no response at all.
