Same here.

With wireless you get:

extra cost, extra weight (drives me nuts), either a battery that eventually fails or replaceable batteries that you need to buy and replace, and if its not bluetooth, some usb adapter that either gets lost of broken.

Plus that adapter takes up one port...oh wait. But I'm still team wired mouse.

Most reasonablemice now support wither a 2.4GHz dongle, or Bluetooth. If your device has WiFi it almost certainly has Bluetooth support. So many motherboards are coming with built in wifi now, as do a lot of prebuilt towers. For most usage a Bluetooth connection is just fine.
