Computer mice, the rodents that can make or break your computing experience. Make the right choice and make sweet harmony with your applications and harness the power of 500 horses (or at least 500MHz), make the wrong choice, and down pours muscle aches and frustrated days. These devices have been around since the beginning of time (or at least technology time) and they're now one of the most basic components in any computer setup... or are they?

With so many different choices in the computer mice market, it becomes hard for one to choose. Those cheap mice that come with your computer are quickly becoming useless when compared to the wide variety of mice currently available on the market. From balled to ball-less, to roller or scroller, to even large or small, if one doesn't know what to look for or what their needs are. Would you prefer more accuracy? Or how about some freedom from a wireless mouse?

In this review, we feature computer mice from Belkin and AVB. Both of these products feature at least a unique feature or two that sets them apart from other mice currently on the market. How useful are these features? Are they worth the extra bucks? We break it down for you...
