Im currently using the logitech cordless optical iTOUCH. I like the
keyboard, dark with white letters works for me. ITS the DAMN optical mouse i
can't get into. It feels like a left hander to me. I used a MS ps2 for 7
years and its right handed with the bend ,as it were, towards the left. This
optical bends to the right and the buttons are of the same texture and are
too small, i have a hard time feeling if Im on them or not. mho
