Does anyone have any insight as to the weight of the wireless vs. the wired version? Currently looking to upgrade to the wireless version.

Micheal is spot on - wired one is probably 1/2 to 2/3 lighter than the wireless - I would say compared to any other mouse with a battery in it - it would be relatively equal.

Wireless version weighs 6 ounces. But I know that only answers half your question.

I have no numbers for you, but the wired one is definitely lighter, possibly 2/3 the weight of wireless. The wireless one is not heavy by any means, even for it's size, but it's got enough weight to feel normal when pushing it around. My advice, if you have kids that would grab the mouse and throw it, I'd get the wired one just so it's tethered to your desk. Otherwise, my wireless one is flawless. They really nailed it with this latest iteration. No problems at all on connection and battery probably lasts 2 months easy. Buy some eneloop rechargeables and you'll be good for a couple years alternating the eneloop 4 pack.

I've owned both the wireless (x2) and the wired of the 3rd generation. My current preference is for the wired version. The wireless one is heavy, and doesn't stand up to being dropped. I don't consider myself a clumsy person, but over time, my mouse slid off my desk any number of times. Sometimes it does okay, and sometimes you have to play with the buttons a bit to get them back to their home. The last time I dropped the wireless one, the silver "back" button (thumb) got jammed in and will not release. The wired version allows me to have a pseudo-tether for the mouse. It's also quite a bit lighter, so if it does fall, my toe will thank me. I've owned both the wireless (x2) and the wired of the 3rd generation. My current preference is for the wired version.

I just put my wireless on my postage meter @ my office - 5.9 oz - I don't like wired mice so I never considered it - I LOVE my mouse - and so does my arthritic thumb!!

I read on the Logitech website that the wired trackball was discontinued and I paid about $30 for each of mine. My guess is those who have them are trying to sell them for the higher price since you can't get them any more. I love my M570 because of the wireless feature... No more chords to get tangled in!

I have an AIR (R3) and R1. The AIR is fine in terms of wireless and the newest update with the additional features. The R1, since it wants to be hardwired to a network, is what I was hoping to make wireless. That's why I'll probably use a bridge.

The device I bought is only "wired". I recall when searching for this that there was another model that was wireless and that it cost perhaps $10 or $20 more.

I got my 9-cell off of ebay and it was around 7-7.5 hours reported with wireless but no bluetooth, though I didn't actually use it that long. It does add a lot of weight, I think the battery might weigh almost as much as the laptop :D

Wade, I did get the wired controller. Don't know if the wireless unit is as good. Enjoy Wolfenstein...amazing graphics and great story line with tons of REAL challenges.

Excellent choice. I have the wireless version of this printer at home and the wired version (shown here) at work. But use same toner, drum, etc. Never had one second of problem, good crisp documents, and even upgrades of firmware periodically to keep it in really good shape. Good value - would recommend.

okay to answer the wireless issue - I use the wireless option for both chairs with an xbox 360 and the sound works great - excellent Bass and sound quailty.

Wireless uses batteries and no cables to attach and wire to string. Its all personal preference.

I don`t know? I sent mine back for a refund. As the ad stated wireless and wired, basically.

This the IW version, wireless.I don't use it myself, but bought the unit after I saw someone use it with wireless mic.

Because its successor (Wireless Anywhere) extremely sucks. It heavier and bigger. I personally, would pay up to $100 for this one if it is new.

My understanding is that it isn't using bluetooth, as that would add to delay for gaming. It uses a proprietary communication, which I think is unencrypted to reduce response time and make this viable for gaming. I've never used a wireless mouse with better response time, feels same as a wired one to me.

I'm not able to answer that question. I have mine hard-wired to my computer. However, I seem to remember reading in the owner's manual that it is wireless capable.

The model I bought is wired usb, but I bet they have a wireless version "somewhere".

I've had a mazer brand mouse ever since I FIRST got my pc. I bought the wireless one and I got it wireless! As so I decided to try the wired one and guess what? ITS WIRED!! So yeah, I got it wired because I wanted a wired mouse
