Were there any markings on the black sides of the mouse?

Really? Take a look at both sides of the mouse. Is the black area completely blemish free?

Actually, it does have some blemishes.

I think they all do. Some water and a little elbow grease buffs them right out.

OOS. :( I should've pulled the trigger on these earlier. I already have one at work and one at home. They're great to use everyday.

I use the Logitech Performance Mouse MX and love the hyper-fast scrolling feature and bought the M500 because it was cheap and also had that option. Using a regular scroll wheel just doesn't cut it anymore after using hyper-fast scrolling. :)

Exchanged for a new mouse today at FS. Works great! This time, the box had a "compatible with Windows 8" sticker on it. I need to get used to the Hyper-Fast scrolling, its a bit sensitive IMO.

Lansdowne FS denied my PM request cause they used their own computer to check the stock status of the mouse. But at Bridgeport FS, I just showed them the price on my phone with no internet connection. >:-D.

I've had my M500 for a week now and it seems good, however today I restarted my Mac Mini computer and only the right button on the mouse worked. I rebooted again and it was OK, although I had to move it around a few seconds before the tracking was recognized. Later the tracking seemed to go a bit insensitive for a few seconds, then it recovered. Before today there were no significant issues.

If problems persist I'll take it back to Staples or contact Logitech support or their forum.

I have a couple of older MX300 optical mice that have been extremely reliable, hoping same for the M500.

I used the "hyper scrolling" function for a day. I ended up switching back to the traditional "clicky" scroll wheel.

I just got my second one and the quality control on this mouse is pretty pathetic. The rubber sides of the mouse have these ugly scratches/blemishes - and these are brand new. Pretty surprised Logitech would allow this to get through. The Logitech G400, on the other hand, was flawless and free of any scratches/blemishes.
