Sure - the dock really has nothing to do with the Bluetooth aspect of the device, so a bluetooth mouse will work regardless of whether or not you have a dock.

Thanks I was reading some old thread where there was an issue. When you connected bluetooth mouse to transformer without dock it disabled onscreen keyboard. Thats why i wasn't sure. Can you recommend any particular mouse to this device?

I use the ms bluetooth notebook mouse 5000. It works fine enough for me.

using a Dell Bluetooth Travel mouse (logitech rebrand), works fine. My only beef is that i need to find a Bluetooth mouse that can support 2 pairings. I have the Infinity & ZenBook (yeah, i like asus) and its an annoyance having to repair each time.

if the keyboard dock is connected to the tablet the on screen keyboard doesn't come out, so its better to use a Bluetooth mouse with out keyboard dock if you want to use the on screen keyboard

Why on earth would anyone want to use onscreen keyboard when the dock is connected? Cmon... Haven't seen more weird reply in some time...
