I would expect it not to get affected by mobile phone emission since the receiver is an infrared receiver and not an RF receiver...unless its components are super sensitive to rf emissions.

Glass and liquid dont do [shouldn't >do] nothing. Comments?? I do not use one everyday. I Can confirm this. I use a Logitech wireless trackball, and I can have the reciever closer to the PC than the recomended 30cm without any trouble. BUT, stick a bottle of water or a coffee between the units, and it does seem to struggle a bit. Tracking seems a tad strange, and clicks can go 'astray'. Doesn't seem to get upset by the mobile phone though. Battery life seems acceptable. 1AA seems to last about 2 months for one that gets used every weekday, 8.30-5.30.
