Theres a big difference between this too??
I was going to get the whell, but its not on stock, and its more expensive.
Ill thinking of getting Basic. Is it ok?

Please dont tell me to get Logitech MX 400, 500, 510 or THE MX1000!
These too are the only ones affordable right now, since i just got myself a new MOBO(a7n8x-x) and Processor(XP 2600+)....

I need some answer ASAP.

well apart from the wheel, theres really no difference. but seriously, once u try the wheel, u wont wanna go back.

uh. how about logitech 310 then? im only suggesting because the mx engine mice seriously rule over M$ stuff.
I can agree, I am using a MX310 here and so far so good
Get the a mouse with a wheel, I find that I scroll a lot faster.
Yea the wheel is worth it. I used logitech mice. I think you'll only find a difference between high end ones. Using a Microsoft one right now :) Works great.

Hi,

the additional wheel is useful either for play or work. And you can also look at other MS optical mouse w/wheel. I think MS has a few models in the market.
Both Mouses have Steering Wheel, there´re just different naming, like "basic" and "Whell", also known as "1.1".
Ill get the basic, its really worth the price.

And for the logitech ones, they´re just overpriced here.
Actually not all, my "bootleg" logitech is just crap, but well, it costed me naugh, was a gift, cant complain at all.....

EDIT: The MX300 is sold here at the price of the M$ intellimouse 4.0a....
I'm getting a Microsoft Optical Mouse with Wheel (Corded version, don't need wireless) along with a Microsoft Keyboard.
you shoud go with logitech I never had one from them that didn't work
Actually i just found a M$ intellimouse 1.1 5 buttons cheaper than wheel mouse.
Ill get this one!

About my logitech, it really isnt a real logitech, its made by someone else, fake one ;)
does it have a scroll wheel between the buttons?, if it dosn't you don't know what you're missing

BTW. Tip: use click the middle button in a browser and use autoscroll
Not a fan of autoscroll.
I do like the 7 buttons on my mouse tho: left, right, autoscroll, back, forward, prev Winamp track and next Winamp track
What a monster!!!
