With sales of notebook PCs on the rise, Logitech has added to its growing family of notebook computer mice, offering two new mice with battery management features: The Logitech V200 Cordless Notebook Mouse and the Logitech Cordless Mini Optical Mouse.

The Logitech V200 Cordless Notebook Mouse combines a battery life of up to one year with virtually interference-free 2.4GHz digital cordless technology. The 2.4GHz technology gives users a range of up to 30 feet, which is great for presentations.

Meanwhile, the affordable Logitech Cordless Mini Optical Mouse is a good fit for value-conscious notebook PC owners who are frustrated by using a touchpad and want a reliable cordless mouse to improve their computing experience.

Both new mice make going cordless easy. Each features a convenient battery-light indicator that notifies users when the batteries are running low. Also, both mice are plug-and-play — they include a miniature USB wireless receiver that is paired individually with the mouse during manufacturing. When the receiver is plugged in, the mouse works immediately. When not in use, the USB receiver conveniently snaps onto the base of the mouse. This action automatically switches the mouse power off, saving battery life, while also making the mouse and receiver easy to transport.

Initially available in onyx and silver colors, the Logitech V200 Cordless Notebook Mouse will retail for $39.99. The Logitech Cordless Mini Optical Mouse will come in two color options — aquamarine or silver, both bordered by a gray grip and will retail for $29.99.
