I have a Microsfot 5000 bluetooth notebook mouse, this thing is 2 and a half years old, well recently one of the feet on it came off so I was wondering if anyone knew of something to replace them.

Of if you have the pad, clean the sticky glue off the mouse and foot and use a plastic glue to adhere it to the bottom again.

Indeed it is, apparently they are just going to send me a replacement and I can just "dispose" of my old mouse

That's cool.
It's nice to get a nice fresh mouse once in a while.
I've purchase mine from Costco and I keep the packaging. Usually something goes wrong with them within 3-5 years and I end up with a new one with another 3-5 year warranty.
I've had a couple new mice over the past 10 years and never had to repurchase.  |
