What type of mousemat are you using?

When mousemats get dirty, the optical sensor on the mouse "thinks" that
there's movement as the light reflects uneven, and thus moves

The best "mousemat" I've used on an optical mouse is a plain white piece
of paper - when it gets old and dirty, you just throw it and get another

Apparently there are special optical mousemats now, but I've not seen
one to judge it (yet)
