Check out my new mouse, it kicks ass once you get used to it. Personally, I think it looks kinda cool with the colored LEDs shining through the clear buttons, but most people seem to think otherwise :)
It's a nice improvement over my old optical, page is www.rotokiller.com

Duude. . . that's cool looking. . . although, I'd have to actually see it and try it before I buy it.

Yeah, I got one
Handles fine...
There's a button in the grip, where the middle/index finger is on the webpage...
it's a cool feature, kind of a squeeze trigger
And the 4 spheres that appear yellow/orange whatever on the top are the other 4 buttons, with yellow/red LED beneath em
none of the buttons click, and there's actually a 6th button near the bottom of the mouse... well, like the point of the grip closest to you
I don't use it, but other people who got the mouse do
It's really customizable... You can disable the grip switches and stuff if u don't like em

Hehe that thing looks nuts! If iI jus saw a pic of that I wouldn't realize that it's a mouse. I can't see how that would look comfortable...

Here's my mouse: none of this infra-red/optical/6-button flying saucers for me! Just a good ol' fashioned M-S48
The best mouse

Doesn't that wire get in the way?

And that looks like something someone clever would build in electronics.

interesting, though.

I get lots of that, the cord doesn't get in the way at all
It comes out to the left, above your thumb...
(Provided you're right handed) it just doesn't drag on the ground...
I don't know why everyonew thinks it's in the way

Hmm... well it really look like one of them things that you either like or you don't. I don't think that I can say anything much about it with out giving it a try.., but I doubt that is going to happen soon.
