No, unfortunately clicking the scroll wheel to switch between the two modes actually physically engages and disengages a ratchet-type system inside. So even if you could use another button, it wouldn’t be able to switch the mechanics inside.

Can you change the scroll wheel to work as a middle mouse button (opening tabs in background) and search button to work as a switcher between ‘hyper-fast’ mode and the ‘click-to-click’ mode?

I lost my VX Revolution, so this is probably the next one I’m going for =) Great job with the review!

You can disable the systray icon by: Click on the Tools Tab (top right). Click on the second icon on left side (Indicator Settings). Uncheck “Show SetPoint icon in notification area”. This is with the 4.00.121 version from their site (didn’t load from CD so don’t know what version that is).

Unfortunately I don’t have a Mac system at my disposal to test out stability under OSX but I have noticed that the mouse does go into a hibernation mode when it hasn’t been touched for a while. (Indicated by the green LED on top shutting off.) So when I want to disable the screensaver/screen blanker on my laptop I have to actually wake the mouse up first. Not a big issue though since technically the mouse powering off is helping to prolong the battery life.

Great work on this review. A comment about the drivers: under OS X 10.4x on a Mac Book Pro, which was running wonderfully stably before, I now am having some hangs that appear to be related to the screensaver and/or waking up from sleep. LOVE this mouse otherwise.
