When it works I love this mouse, but when it begins to stutter it (like anything wireless) begins to cause major headaches and short tempers... When the processor starts to work harder and the mouse suffers and if you do not have a direct line of sight to the computer is lacks ideal functionality!

This new mouse seems to me a small masterpiece. Simply the best mouse that I ever used. Its weight, shape, functionality. I know other people might have other opinions but I like this mouse and so here it is, my personal encouragement to buy one. For me it is just perfect.

This mouse works just as advertised!
I bought one of those glass L shaped desks that you see at staples, office max, target, etc. where the glass isnt very thick and has no tinting. The Anywhere Mouse MX handled it like a charm. No more mouse mat! The mouse also fits comfortably in the hand and feels very responsive.
The only thing I would change about this mouse is to make a bluetooth version so i dont have to use up a precious USB slot on my laptop.

30 feet from the laptop, down the hall and in the bedroom, like the Energizer bunny, still going. Problem is, I don't have Superman's vision to see through the walls to see what the mouse is doing. With that said, it'd work great for a home theater mouse. It feels good in my medium sized hand and is very responsive. It's a life saver if you have carpal tunnel syndrome because you can place the mouse on any surface anywhere around you that feels comfortable for your wrist due to its fantastic tracking system. I'm still using the batteries that came with the mouse and that was 30 days ago and I use it everyday for 5 hours or more. However, I never forget to power off the mouse when I'm done. The mouse has never failed to connect when I wake my Toshiba Satellite P105-S9337 laptop up from sleep mode. Once in a while, it'll be powered down. I have been running Windows Vista Premium 32-bit till ten days ago then upgraded to Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. The mouse works in both OS versions.
The only downside for me is that my thumb hits the back button unintentionally. So not quite 5 stars.

This mouse is a big step forward in terms of mousing technology. It lives up to its claims which I find unusual for many technology devices.
Things that I really liked about this mouse:
1. The size of the receiver -- most cordless devices have this huge USB portion that stick out. I have had problems with these since they can easily bend and break and render the device useless. Also, the fact that you can use this receiver to connect multiple devices -- GENIUS!! Why has it taken folks this long to come up with that idea!!
2. On/Off switch -- this may sound like a small thing but when you are relying on batteries to power your pointing device, you want them to last as long as possible. Again, why has it taken folks this long to come up with this concept.
3. Ability to use this on any surface... When you are traveling, you have to use your mice wherever there is a flat surface. Often that means smooth glass or marble conference tables. No problem with this mouse. It worked well on every surface I tried it on (including my cashmere shawl sitting next to me on my chaise lounge chair!)
4. Attention to "small details" -- Logitech does a great job thinking like a "traveler"/"computer user" (probably because they are also users!). The convenient carrying pouch, the scroll wheel, the ability to have multiple ways to using the mouse buttons (either using your thumb or your fingers, the solid feel of the mouse... these are all things that make this mouse something that you enjoy using as opposed to just tolerating its use.
However, in terms of ergonomics, this is probably not a great mouse. I do admit that I am biased because I do prefer trackballs. When I do use mice, I prefer something that is larger in my hand. However, I realize that this is meant to be a portable mouse to travel with your laptop and if you hate using your trackpad, this is probably much better than nothing. I am planning to order the full size Logitech Performance Mouse MX. I've used previous versions and found the full-sized version to be very comfortable and fits well in your hand. In fact, if I am using a mouse, that is the only version truly liked.
However, I did find that my son loves using this mouse because of the size -- so if you have kids and don't need a "travel mouse", this makes a perfect size for smaller younger hands. The fact that it will track reliably on so many different surfaces is another huge plus since my kids who use their laptops in places you would never expect.
I would not hesitate to recommend this mouse if you are traveling and hate to use the trackpad. Also, if you have kids who are using the computer -- this mouse will be very comfortable for smaller hands. I have found Logitech devices are very reliable. The battery life achieved with their pointer devices is great so you aren't going through batteries too quickly. Normally -- at least for full-sized devices, their ergonomics are very good and probably the best in there class (without having to go to special adaptive ergonomic devices which cost a LOT more money). And now -- using their nano receiver, they have really raised the bar in terms of usability. Excellent Excellent set of devices!
