wireless mice?

[SPITFIRE]

This may be a stupid question, but other people cant give me a stright answer.

I use a wireless mouse (logitech G7) wich use's 2.4Ghz.
Will there be any interfearance at all, also will other people useing wireless mice cause problems?

I experienced problems with an mx700 at one event, I believe you can change channels but it would be a matter of negotiation with everyone in the area to spread the channels around, personally I would recommend bring a wired spare just in case, you may be lucky but then again ... you may not :(

I attended i26 with my G7 and had no problems what so ever, although i couldnt see anyone else with a G7 there was two people beside me both with MX1000's neither with any connectivity issues.

Sloggy.

My wireless headphones always get interference from other PC's around me (they are very old though). At one event, I was tuned into my PC, tilted my head about 20 degrees to the right to stretch my neck muscles, got someone playing CS, just at the second of "Go Go Go", then tilted back to normal again to tune into my PC again.

Well I thought it was funny at the time.

Been to every iseries, I used to have problems with wireless headphones but this was i2 (so around 1999) - I think the technology is a little better now.
I've been using a wireless mouse for many many lans and never ever get a problem.

If in doubt, bring a spare cabled mouse.

The mx1000 shouldnt have problems because its bluetooth and can only talk to the one its connected to (well mine is with the mx5000 set) but i dont know about the others.

The G7 comes with two battaries, so while your playing, you charge the other, and when it dies, you swap it over :p:

logitech support are excellent - i had a problem with a bluetooth desktop mx set where the cradle/receiver stopped being detected as a bluetooth device; they sent a replacement cradle straight away free of charge

BTW there were no problems at all with my mouse :D
