Mike, I downloaded the new driver and messed with the MacAlley BT Mouse
settings before posting the comment.
Guess what??? It is working this morning. Maybe the BT Mouse prefereces
is one of those that needs a system restart to work. Anyway I am using
the BT Mouse to read and reply to your response and I am using MT-NW
3.5.3b2.
Lets see (and hope) if this will continue to work.
