Buy blimey, the 703 and 903 are expensive. I think I might just stick with wires. Or buy one of every wireless mouse Amazon sells and see if any one of them is good enough

Is it for gaming or just everyday stuff?

I'm also left-handed for most things, but since I started using PC's (original iMacs actually) in a shared (school) environment, I threw in the towel early and use the mouse right-handed. I'd say I've become almost ambidextrous after ~28-years, except I stick to left handed for writing/drawing/slicing/scissoring/sawing and... well, um never mind :-$. I do use my wacom pen-tablet left-handed, sometimes just to relieve CTS-like symptoms in my right wrist.

Mainly desktop stuff, but the occasional gaming too. The mouse I sent back annoyed me too much on the desktop to even try gaming.

The only mice I really, really hate are Apple's. Haven't really tried anything out of ordinary generic laser mouse wired/not.

I haven't tried any of Apple's mouses. I've got a MX518 for my desktop which is perfectly fine (probably good) (apart from occasional sticky left button and wheel). And some cheapy wired ones in work which are fine (except for no side buttons
:'(

Apple's keyboards and mice are notoriously sucky, and deservedly so.

My wireless mouse cost 6 quid in Aldi. One AA battery lasts about 4 months. I've never noticed any lag with any mouse, wireless or otherwise.

Someone in work uses an Apple keyboard with an old Unix system. Don't like the look of it. I'd like to take my Model M into work but I think it would be a bit noisy.

Only £6
:O
A little less than the £68 I spent on the Logitech. Tempted to try a cheap one just to see what it's like. Plenty of cheap ones on Amazon with decent reviews. So long as it has side buttons.
