Same here. I thought it was a mouse problem because when it does this
the optical thingy on the bottom is constantly on. It only ever does
this when you carry the mouse around with it on, left on a desk, it
never seems to do this.
I did suggest to Logitech that they should put an on/off switch on these
mice but they gave me some rubbish answer like "It's intended to be used
with the base station and not carried around and used with a laptop". I
was like, "What? So I fork out an extra 50 quid to get the bluetooth
version because...?". But that is all beside the point.

It's a real shame really as the logitech mice like the mx500 and mx900 are
really, really nice. The off switch issue on the mx900 is the only gripe I
have.

MacMice makes a mouse that looks much like the apple mouse with left and
right mouse buttons plus a clickable scrollwheel that is bluetooth and
comes with an on/off switch (http://www.dvforge.com/themousebt.shtml).
I was looking into this mouse, but decided to go with the microsoft one
instead.

I think it is a problem in the mouse firmware, but maybe my suggestion
with disabling inquiry scan and page scan before disconnecting can help
to not bring the mouse into a deadlock.

That is exactly the point. I discussed this with another company and it
is hard for some sales/support guys to understand what is really needed
and what is simply a bad design. Not integrating an on/off switch is
totally stupid. However Apple did this one right, but you there is
always the proble with the missing second and third mouse buttons ;)
