Wireless ones are a pain as you have to keep changing the batteries!!

I am using a Microsoft wireless Optical Mouse. It is excellent the only problem is that it has to have batteries. So I keep some rechargeable batteries in a charger plugged in and just change them over once or twice a week. I dont know if you can use two mice but the optical one can be use on any surface and in several positions so you can just change sides and reset the mouse

A wireless mouse is liberating, they are good but your machine needs to be bluetoothed, a USB module can be bought to do just that.
The two mice would operate in a differant way so they would not interfere with each other, disconnect the wire mouse whilst using yours.

Hi. Yes to both questions. I like my wireless mouse but have had two hooked up at once (one with a cable) and they worked fine together.

wireless mouses are great,i could never go back to a usb one now,dont worry what people say about the batteries being a pain,i use cheapo batteries and they last ages,and when they do run out,it only takes seconds to change them,go wireless you will never go back to usb.

I like the wireless mouse because you don't have to worry about the cord but the have to change the batteries often.

I use a wireless & wired att the time at work - on the same PC.
The wireless has a docking station / charger so won't run out of power.
Make sure you get a reasonably good quality one though - the cheap ones are useless.

I use a wireless mouse, it's good. I don't know about two together. I wouldn't have thought that would work.

how come u want to buy a wireless one? do u want to use ur mouse far from ur pc? I believe wireless mouses are strange. I will never do such a risk. u'd better choose a usual one if u want ur mouse to have a long life.

Yes I just tried it. As long as you have two usb ports, or if you use the old mouse port, it works fine.
