Mine was This. (http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/products/details/US/EN,CRID=2158,CONTENTID=10776)
It looks, and feels so great. The MX1000 mouse is the best mouse ever made, hands down, but unfortunately, the bluetooth implementation is so awful. It lags constantly, particularly when gaming/encoding video (Bluetooth, is or course, much more CPU reliant than RF).
The touch sensitive media controls were also nealy useless, as they just won't respond.
The other problem is that upon restarting, the damn thing WILL NOT STAY CONNECTED. The software (Logitech SetPoint (Avoid at all costs)) crashes constantly, and recognises the keyboard, but will not generate a passkey. Of course, it's kind of hard to enter the passkey into Windows with no keyboard!
The logitech bluetooth drivers were also, somehow, crashing my internet connection. No idea how, but uninstalling the drivers has stopped the problem i was having.
I kept this for just under 2 weeks, i tried so hard to put up with it's problems, but i've gone back to my Logitech MX700, which has much smaller keys, and just feels worse to type on. Not to mention that the mouse doesn't charge properly.
I must say i sadly miss my MX1000 mouse. I might go for the MX3100, basically the same thing, without the touch panel, screen, and bluetooth, which i will avoid like the plague in PC peripherals from now on.
So, to generate discussion, has anyone ever just had something that they wanted to love so bad, but due to problems, just couldn't?
