I had a V70 up until about a year ago. It is a good basic mouse. Bluetooth mice have some quirks, the most noticeable being the slight delay in "waking up" after a period of idleness. Nothing I couldn't live with though. The V70 died after about two years of use. I purchased it as a refurbished unit, so this one might have had a history. I don't think it's a bad mouse though.

The mouse I am using now is a M705 Logitech. It is a wireless, but not Bluetooth. It has a USB dongle that it pairs with. This uses a precious USB port, but I have a powered 4-way hub installed. This dongle is also capable of pairing with other devices (printer, keyboard) so only one dongle is needed for several devices. I have yet to try out this feature because I have the Apple Bluetooth keyboard and a wired USB printer.

Having had both, I think I would go with a USB wireless mouse. There is more options available, and you get more bang for the buck.

Hello all, any recommendations/suggestions on any of the many mice available. I just tried a GearHead that wouldn't connect and I'm thinking of having a go with a Logitech V70. Please share any good/bad experiences with this.

Thanks George

Actually I found the answer. My internet provider doesn&#39;t allow tethering unless my plan includes 1gig data. Right now I only have 500megs data in my plan. That&#39;s bs as far as I&#39;m concerned, but I don&#39;t really need a data plan for my iPad, since I turn off the roaming feature on my iPhone anyway when I travel. There are enough wifi hotspots everywhere so I&#39;ll be all right.

Thanks for the responses guys.

Just to be asking since there isn't enough info in your query, did you have Wi-Fi turned on, with both devices?

Interesting reading, thanks. One thing I forgot to mention. I had used Oynx recently and turned on visibility for hidden files, so I was seeing various hidden files in the trash as well. I wonder if that made any difference. We use Crash Plan for backup so TM is not involved as suggested in some of the Apple discussion posts.

A quick scan through the first page didn't show any definite revelations about the cause, but you definitely aren't alone!

UPDATE
I restarted. Still the same error. Then I went in and manually deleted several files. Then I tried the empty trash menu item again and it worked.

Go figure. I'd still like to know if anyone knows why this occurs.
