Wireless mouse with very small receiver?

[imported_Gelfling]

I need to get a few wireless mice for my office. They are going to be used on with tablet PC's. Even though I love using a pen with my tablet, some people in my office just can't get used to it. Therefore, we agreed we would buy them coreless mice to use instead. The problem is, we carry the tablets all over and if the wireless reciever is large, it will likely keep falling out of the USB socket. Basically I need a wireless mouse with an ULTRA SMALL reciever? Anyone have any ideas? This is not the kind of thing that is easily discovered.

We have a microsoft wireless optical mouse at work. the usb receiver (when not in use) snaps into the bottom of the mouse. The bottom says Model : 1023.

How about the logitech vx revolution? I have an mx revolution at home and it just has a small bluetooth dongle thats smaller than most usb flash drives. not sure what the vx has but it's geared towards notebooks.

If these tablet PCs have bluetooth already, then you won't need another when you use a bluetooth mouse.

Also to be considered: One of my portables has an extra USB port on the inside. I fit a small BT transceiver in there, works perfectly fine.

I got the nano for my IBM X61T cuz i totally forgot to order bluetooth when i configured it. These mice are sweet.
If that's not an option check out a mini bluetooth like the one posted above.

or there is this ebay link
Too bad it's only available on ebay and its kind of expensive. the nano would be the best bet i think.

Yep, looks nice. Now you guys have got me looking to buy one of these things. Best price I'm seeing is @ $50.00 shipped. It looks like Logitech had a 20.00 rebate good 'till Oct 21st. Missed the boat again!
