Got a wireless mouse for my HP win 10 laptop today, the receiver is so tiny (which I like) and it stores inside the mouse, when not in use. It also matches perfectly, red & black. I mostly bought it for my Grandson to play Oblivion, think it makes the fighting easier but I think I'll be using it for my games too. PS, it also has an on/off switch to save battery life.

I have a Logitech "couch mouse" that is like that - I love it!

I don't think Logitech calls it the "couch mouse" any more. It was supposed to be perfect for using a mouse on your furniture. I would have gotten one to match the laptop too!

My wireless mouse is still using the same batteries I put in it a year ago - and I use it heavily. Supposed it depends on what kind you get, but I wouldn't be without mine. When using my tablet, the wireless mouse is invaluable.
I use a wired Razer Death Adder for gaming and wouldn't part with it. It's old, but I hope it keeps on working forever.
I tried out an ergonomic mouse like yours at a store once and really, really disliked it. Like you say, you probably have to get used to it, but it was just too unnatural for me and I could tell it would not do at all for heavy duty gaming.

I know what you mean, TLC! I have enough problems keeping the wire jungle organized! I love my wireless mouse.

My mouse , currently : Amazon I have 3 other mice , all wired . I had a Razer Mamba . Used it wireless , then plugged in . The battery life was utterly horrible . Back in the day , I had a Microsoft wireless mouse 6000 , replaced batteries maybe 3 times a year .

I remember my first wireless mouse - I always seemed like I had to put batteries in it every other day too! I think they have come a long way since then... this Couch Mouse from Logitech has been going for a year now with the same batteries. It automatically shuts off if I don't use it. That probably helps as I would never remember to do it!
