    What's the best Bluetooth mouse that you guys use?

    I prefer something that natively connects to my Macs BT without a dongle (so no 2.4GHz RF ones please) ad preferably full size as i'll be wanting to use it instead of the track pad.

    I've only found a few so far, but none have caught my eye. All the rest seem to be RF with a dongle.

    I am 90% sure you can use the Logitech mx700 with the inbuilt bluetooth. And it's a nice mouse - I have the corded version (mx510) and I love it, works very well with OS X. Only good for right-handers though.

    I've had my Apple Wireless mouse for around 3 years now, but sold it recently as I was never using it.

    I'm one of those who reckon a 2-buttoned mouse is sorely needed on the Macs and I prefer to live with one (2 button mouse) than with a one buttoned mouse.

    At the moment, i'm borrowing my brothers MX518 wired but he's going to need it back soon and i'll be needing a mouse.

    I guess i'll have to stump up for a MX7/900 unless there are better alternatives.

    I have a RadTech BT510: http://www.radtech.us/Products/BT510.aspx

    It works well enough. It's a bit "twitchy" sometimes, especially when the battery is running low. It also seems to move very quickly across the screen, even when the speed settings in System Preferences are set to minimum. And the battery doesn't last very long.

    It's fine for light-to-medium use though, and the USB power cable is a nice touch.
