If you really need a mouse on the go
You won’t find many smaller than the striking Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse. With a surface area barely bigger than a credit card
It’s certainly easy to throw in your bag. It’s surprisingly comfortable to use too considering its wee size. The top surface recognises swipes in four directions
So you can scroll around on pages and in applications with ease.Handi

The editors didn't like
No thumb buttons
Noisy feet

Expensive
Windows 8 is just around the corner
And with it come all sorts of new gestures
Including the ability to swipe between apps. But you won’t be able to pull them off with the Microsoft Wedge Touch MouseThat’s a bit silly
Especially when Apple’s Magic Mouse and Trackpad support all sorts of useful gestures on Macs. You can’t pinch to zoom in
Switch app or pull up Microsoft’s Windows 8 Charm bar (

Smart build for touch functions and battery, Tiny; great for travel
Touch functions limited to scrolling, even on Windows 8, Available touch panel on any OS is clunky and slow, Expensive considering the complete lack of touchsensitive features…on a mouse named the Wedge Touch

The Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse has an elegant, extremely compact, and surprisingly usable design, and works as well as advertised
Touch gestures are limited to basic one-finger four-way scrolling, and a $70 price tag feels too lofty
Executives dying for an ultraportable mouse to go with their Windows 8 or Android tablet will find a beautiful companion in the Wedge Touch Mouse, but it's a lot to pay for a pretty basic set of functions.
Runs on one AA battery; Touch support is good; Switches off automatically; Tiny;
The mouse isn't terribly comfortable to use; Limited touch-based gesture functionality;
There are a lot of notebook mice out there, and Microsoft has been engineering them for as long as a lot of them. There was the Bluetrack Explorer, the fold-up Arc, and even the flat rubber Arc Touch, and while the Wedge Touch continues some of that u...
Responsive, Portable, Works well with Windows 8, Easy to connect
Pricey, Not for desktop PCs
The Microsoft Wedge Touch Mouse is certainly not going to be to everyone's taste, and we had some serious reservations when we first saw the design, but it's actually not that bad at all if you want a light mouse to quickly work on your tablet when a tou...

Personally? I wouldn't buy this device for laptop or desktop. I've got tiny hands, a love of cute technology and a lust for new gear, and still it's not my kind of thing. If it were a little bit bigger or you had a more obvious and ergonomically-friendly...
