Q: Does with work with Apple laptops? If it does, is it easy to connect?
A: Yes it works on my Macbook pro 15 inch and it's easy to connect via bluetooth. Down side is it does not have the full trackpad gesture - like if you swipe three fingers up for "mission control" it wouldn't work. Just a basic mouse scrolling/clicking mouse.
A: I'm a woman with small hands and it worked well for me.
Q: Does this mouse work when it's flat or does it only work in "arc" position?
A: It only works in its arcd position because flattening it is what turns it off.
A: It uses two AAA batteries in a small compartment on the bottom side. Be careful putting batteries in. This is the only device I ever saw where two batteries are inserted in the same orientation. Usually one positive and one negative in each direction. On this one both of each are on the same side. Odd.
Q: Does this mouse work with hp and Sony notebooks
A: Def does, I purchased to which I use with my Microsoft Surface tablet and my SONY VAIO 14" touch screen and it works flawlessly! As long as you have Bluetooth I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work with an BT device.
Q: Does it Have a Back Button on the Side ? & Does it Work with a PC ?
A: No back button. The only button on this Microsoft mouse is the main button. It does have the standard Left/right button functionality though. No back button, no scroll wheel. You can scroll by sliding your finger up/down the big main button. It is designed for the Surface Pro. Built in Bluetooth, so I suspect it'll work with a Bluetooth-enabled PC.
A: Works just fine with Macs
Q: Does it have a middle button option?
A: No middle button or scroll wheel, but the entire pad of this mouse that covers the left, and right click buttons, functions as a scroll wheel. Simply use two fingers, placed on the pad, and move in any direction to scroll!

I have had my Surface mouse for several weeks and have enjoyed having it. It works fine and is easy to transport. I stick it in my pocket sometimes and other times I carry it in my computer sleeve. It's so convenient!! The only drawback is that I have an XL hand, so I wish it were a little larger, but I won't trade it until they come up with a larger or longer size. Since it is Microsoft Bluetooth, I don't use an off-brand USB antenna mouse anymore. Finally, the quality of the Surface mouse is great and I Iove it!!

The two main features of this mouse are the flexible body and the touch pad “buttons” When traveling you can flatten the mouse and in doing so it powers off, great feature to save batteries and having to remember to switch off when running out the door. The mouse doesn’t have conventional buttons or a scroll wheel but a touchpad that you can click on either side or slide a finger to scroll vertically or horizontally. You might need to download the “Microsoft mouse and keyboard center” app to tweak the settings as I found the horizontal scrolling needed to be set to maximum to be useful. The shape of the mouse makes it a little hard for me to work with the same precision as a regular mouse. The arch shape fills the hand but there is no body under the arch for my thumb and small finger to grip. Over time I might get used to it and modify my grip. Good mouse, looks slick but a bit pricy. Get it on sale when you can!

This is my second Arc mouse & I tell you what… I doubt I will ever find any other mouse that works better for my needs. My favorite part is being able to store it inside the zipper pocket of my small planner (along with a Bluetooth number pad). The connection never gives me issues and the batteries last for so long with this mouse. Highly recommend this for personal and business use.
