Features:

The multi-touch feature allows sideway finger scroll, flicks, panning, swipes and other gestures very easily, for both hand users. To navigate in an application using this multi-touch mouse the one-finger gesture is helpful, where index finger can be used for scrolling and swipe across document. The thumb helps in navigating forward and backward for browsing history. For positioning any opened application window in the Window 7, maximizing or minimizing the window and to enable the snap feature, the two-finger gesture is helpful.

Microsoft Touch Mouse Review :

The package of Microsoft Touch Mouse needs some alteration when compared to Microsoft Arc mouse or Apple’s Touch Magic as it is little bit heavy. However, it is fair in simplicity when compared to other latest wireless touch mouse brands in market. When coming to performance it is quite satisfactory due to its Blue Track laser sensors, which allows in operating on any surface accurately. For gamers the mouse can become an additive touch mouse, if all the gestures are thoroughly identified.  The ambidextrous feature is one good feature, which makes it different in both Wireless touch mouse and Microsoft mouse category. The compatibility on different OS could have been added as this is Touch mouse for Window7. The price is expensive for people who want to operate on different operating system. This reason may even make them choose some cheap wireless touch mouse, having fewer features but compatible on different OS.  However, for people who are looking for multi-touch mouse with latest technology and easy in installation, this can be good choice.

The Microsoft Touch Mouse price in India may be bit expensive, so know the price in online stores which may be slightly cheap.
