$80 for a mouse is pretty nuts, I agree.  I've never had a cordless 
mouse, previously I had an MX500, and discovered that's just exactly 
what I want.  Wasn't like the cord was always getting caught, but it 
happened enough.  The Logitech software is really excellent now, you can 
customize all 10 buttons the MX1000 has (including the left/right 
scroll) depending on which application you're using.  That actually 
takes a little registry tweaking to accomplish, easy enough.  I bind the 
scroll left/right buttons to lean l/r for those games that have that 
feature.  Smooth and precise, you can put it on anything with the laser, 
one's knee for example and it will work. 
So it works OK in Linux but only recognizes 3 out of the 10 buttons.
