Advantages: Great response, accuracy and comfort.

Disadvantages: Charger is not the best.

I bought this mouse a good 2-3 years ago now. It has a solid construction however the charging base is not the best. The optical sensor is actually a laser, however i havent noticed any difference between this and any other normal optical sensored mouse. The mouse always picks up movement that i make regardless of how fast i move it.

I play counterstrike-source with mouse and do general web browsing and find it really comfortable, the mouse has back and forward buttons on the side for web browsing however you need the software to set these up sometimes which can be a pain. It also has a application switch (the equivalent of alt-tab) within these two buttons, this can be useful but its a bit to slow compared to the usual alt-tab. The mouse also has a 'fast scroll' above and below the normal scroll wheel, this is really great when its setup right as you can zoom through internet pages to find what you want, however this doesnt work with windows 7 as the drivers havent been released.

Overall the product is really great, the only downfalls are the charging base. I would like to see a removeable lithium battery of some kind and a solid battery charger like that of a digital camera. Other than that, there are no faults with this.

Summary: Solid mouse, worth the money.
