My annoyance with wired mouses is that the wire usually hangs over the desk edge, pulling the mouse towards the edge of the desk, pulling the pointer along with it. (Nasty if your preferred configuration is to change window focus with the mouse.)
Another annoyance is that accidentally brushing against the mouse wire makes the pointer go crazy on the screen. Also tripping over an open can of your preferred beverage with your mouse cable can make you an unhappy camper.
Now, with a wireless mouse but wired mousepad, you can actually bury the wire somewhere under the pile of random papers on your desk, or actually make it look neat and straight. True, you still need to operate the mouse on the pad, but hey, that is still enough for many of us.
Is it worh the money spent on it? I'll leave that one to the people making the purchase decision...

Somehow I find it scary that a message with that content can and actually does get moderated +5 Informative. :)
The Anonymous Coward in the parent post, sharing his insight, says: "Yeah. Fuck Allah in the ass with a rusty mickey mouse statue."
Assuming it is a Christian point of view, it is very odd, since by saying that he insults God himself.
