A Logitech MX900 mouse is the finest of pointing devices and uses regular Bluetooth to connect to a PC. I was looking for a mouse to work with an 2008 iMac and the mouse paired with it easily using System preferences > Bluetooth > +.
The mouse had a rubber soft-feel coating which had worn and perished over time - possibly due to cleaning and possibly due to hand perspiration (see here for a pic from a guy who paint sprayed the mouse to great effect). My solution was to use a cloth and alcohol (microfibre cloth and alcoholic hand disinfectant) to clean off the rubber and leave a shiny plastic finish as shown here.
The second problem I caused myself by replacing the two NiH AA batteries. The charging light on the base unit was fast-flashing in red because I'd used 2000mA/hour batteries. Changing these for 1500mA/hr which were normal for this mouse's time changed the charging light to a slow flashing green. Long missed mouse with a great result.
