Are you talking about the Bluetooth set? According to the site you can buy it at best buy for $89...

Yeah, I am curious as to what you are referring to as well. I hope they keep the bluetooth mouse around, I would like to try to get that working with an IBM T40 with bluetooth so I can eliminate needing wires of any sort (I prefer using a mouse to the on-keyboard stuff when possible).
Scott - you can't go wrong w/ Logitech's wireless set. I've had mine now for about 2 years already. Get the Wireless MX-700 w/ the wireless keyboard too. Here's the cool part...the wireless receiver that plugs into your USB/PS2 port is also a recharging dock...it recharges the mouse batteries. I have never had to replace the batteries for this wireless mouse yet...and it's been about 2 years since I bought it. Highly recommended.
I for one bought such a bluetooth wireless mouse half a year ago. I tried using it with two computers and now I can't get it connected with any of them. A friend of mine tried it with his built in bluetooth transceiver, but the software refused to install due to competing bluetooth stacks.
Now it's collecting dust on a shelf.
