Title: Oh, what a difference another six months make: what was once a Five-Star rating is now a One-Star rating
Product review: Back on 9/5/05, I wrote a glowing Five-Star review of this mouse after six months of use. Mea culpa. After barely a year's worth of M-F 8-5 usage, it is now headed to the landfill. The switch under the left mouse button started failing a few weeks ago and finally quit altogether this past week. It took awhile to figure out how to disassemble the mouse without breaking anything, but I was able to confirm that, yes, it was indeed the left switch that was the culprit.As seen with other reviews here and elsewhere, this is an all-too-common complaint. That being the case, I felt obliged to delete my original Five-Star review and replace it with this One-Star review.Bottom line: this is a one-year-and-done mouse. If you like its ergonomics, the IntelliPoint software's interfacing with Microsoft Office, and you don't mind replacing it annually, buy it. Otherwise, look elsewhere.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
