11 The MX1000 has a gigantic bulky cradle like my MX 700. The G7 has
12 interchangable batteries and a base docking station, but that is just
13 a USB extension that houses a much more portable USB reciever like a
14 smaller wireless optical mouse.

16 If you plan on moving around a lot, get the G7. If you're staying
17 put, the MX 1000 will do fine. Both are dang good mice, so you really
18 can't make a *wrong* choice, just one is better than the other for
19 certain needs. That's all.
