Well, the 510 is a beaut, very precise, and well worth the ~50$
I read a TomsHardware review, and they said they liked the mx1000 even better than the 510 - rounding in at ~80$.
My personal thought - having owned the mx700 - wireless is fun. However, it is heavy at times. The lithium batteries will last a while (toms said 2 weeks without any need for a recharge) but batteries do still tend to wear out after a while (not hold a charge as well).
Will I buy the 1000? probably not (still have the 700 - don't use it though). Should you buy the 1000? If you want to try wireless, go for it. If you are content being chained to your pc, then the 510 is better.

And yes, the Intellimouse Explorer is actually excellent, especially for an MS mouse.
