Some time ago I reviewed the Bluetake BT500 Bluetooth mouse. With its compact size, comfortable ergonomics, and smooth performance, Bluetake's BT500 Bluetooth mouse was a very good choice of a mouse for mobile users. About the only thing that could have made this Bluetooth mouse better was if it came with rechargeable batteries and a self contained means to charge them. Well, that is exactly what Bluetake has done with the introduction of their new BT500+ Bluetooth Rechargeable Super Mini Mouse, the topic of this review.
