Why the BW keys so thick? Feels like using old keyboard...
Like the Tron little more, except the keyboard is too wide -.-;

I have been using PVC mice/mouse for many years, haven found any problem at the connector (unless you're tingling with it everyday).
Good PVC should give very sturdy protection even under severe usage, and the copper inside should be in higher quality to prevent tear even when bend many times, and that's the different between cheap and good mice
Braided dust magnet, umm, might be cause of the bumpy structure that catch dust easily, like the wire sleeving inside the chassis.
But if the wire tends to stay at 1 way might be the PVC inside the sleeves, the PVC material is different from normal one.

... so much hassle just get wireless one la... LMAO
