Optical/laser mice will work on soft surfaces, just be sure you keep the surface clear of any dirt or hair-type things. I personally promote Logitech hardware, though I'm guilty of having a Razer Naga mouse. If you're going to be in front of the big TV often, then get a laptop table for laptop computers (they usually make them for better air flow, etc) with a fold-out mouse sidebar.
