I want to like this
Date:March 15, 2013
I bought this to use with my iMac on which I've bootcamped Windows 7. Under OS X the trackpad works perfectly as advertised. It has a comfortable feel and is very responsive. My problems with this device arise when trying to use it under Windows 7. The support page for this product does not offer Windows drivers. I tried using the drivers for the T650 (the Touchpad for Windows model) and those drivers don't recognize the trackpad. I don't understand why there aren't any Windows drivers for this product. I would give this a five star review if I could use this with my Mac regardless of the operating system I use.

I don't recommend it

The size is good and it supports multitouch gestures ,but it's slower than the original trackpad and sometimes it's lagging (fully charged).

Allllmost, but not there
Date:February 24, 2013
Yes, it's sensitive. Yes, it has gestures. Yes, it's rechargeable. Yes, the charge lasts a couple days of constant usage. Yes, it's thin and portable.
Right-click, though, is completely awful. I can't use this at work because I always have to right-click on things. I am forever repeatedly tapping in the right corner. One moment it works. The next moment it doesn't work. Clicking on the right corner? Sorry, that's a left-click most of the time in most applications. It seems the software is trying to learn what I'm doing, but guess what, it fails about 50% of the time. If you want to use this as your everyday mouse, it had better be because you need gestures for Win8, because it sure isn't for its ability to right-click anything anywhere, in any situation, because it sure can't do that.

Excellent trackpad for the Macbook Pro Retina
Date:February 4, 2013
I got this trackpad because I use both the mouse and trackpad for my work. I have a Macbook Pro Retina (2012) model. This trackpad works beautifully. Pairing is extremely simple - the Macbook detects the trackpad as soon as the trackpad is switched on. A few quick clicks and the trackpad is paired. I've found that even after I switch off the trackpad and switch it on, my Macbook Pro detects the trackpad seamlessly.
Make sure to download the software from Logitech to get all the gestures. Basically, all the gestures available in Mountain Lion is available via the software. Without the software, only a partial set of the features will be available to you (so make sure you download the software).
The software itself contains a preferences manager (that sits in your control panel) that allows you to change the preferences for your gestures. The interface is remarkably similar to Apple's interface to setting up gestures (including the animated videos for how the gestures work). Thankfully, Logitech has not included any bloatware with the software so all you get is the software to configure your trackpad.
The trackpad itself is no different from Apple's trackpad. Scrolling (including inertia) is available as is all the two, three and four-finger gestures. And the best part, is that it's fully rechargeable. I fully charged my trackpad when I got it and it's been on 24 hours since then. Battery reached about half it's charge after approximately 2 weeks of light use.
Overall, I would highly recommend it. As I mentioned, make sure to download the software to get all the gestures.
