i can get the old boomslang 1000dpi in the tin can.
brand new old stock, about RM280 if not mistaken.
so yea, obviously not worth it.
but some collectors might still want it.

yea, i know the Death adder is supposed to have a very good sensor.

also maybe the reason why the copperhead cant do those exact turns is cos the sensor signal is too strong?
there have been complains that some ppl have to lift the mouse more than a few cm off the pad before there is no movement.

while the Habu is supposed to be a fine-tuned Copperhead sensor for low sens, which i guess fixes the above problem.

have to really try the Habu and see, tho im perfectly happy with my copperhead.
anyway, i recently scrapped off all the rubber coating on the two buttons after getting irritated at it.
after awhile, if you really use the mouse alot, you will notice the rubber slowly peeling off.
i had this prob on my old diamondback, and also on my current copperhead which is why i decided to just scrape it all off.
feels much better now btw, tho theres no resale value but im not selling anyway
so the deathadder while it is good, just the design where the buttons and body are one and coated in the same rubber material is just not for me.
and once my 2yr warranty for copperhead expires sometime oct this yr, i'm probably gonna put on the silver pro-tools shell.

IMO that Lanparty pouch does not save the deathadder or any mouse, and is also the reason why i dont use it even tho i have two of it, both gotten free from copperhead and diamondback.
its just too damn cramp to stuff both mouse and cables in.

its too bad some sellers came into the razer bulk late, or you would've been able to get the Lanpak.
this is what i have been using for the last few yrs to transport my mouse for any competitions/lan etc and apparently is no longer produced.

notice how much bigger it is, has a seperate place beside the mouse to store the cables.
was actually designed to be big enough to also carry your driver CD around, but that is useless.

PS. yea my mouse buttons are shiny cos i scrapped off all the rubber coating, got irritated and now somehow it feels much better
why the top part harder to scrape off i'm guessing is cos my fingers never reached that part so its still nicely stuck to the surface underneath.
i will be very interested to see how deathadder bodies look like in 6 months time, especially for those FPS users who prefer the palm style.

well, since you said mobo incompatibility...i would guess its a setting in the bios? something to do with the usb?
perhaps disable boot up via usb device etc? find other settings that are related and disable them.

thought cold boot is when the mouse fails to start up when the system boots.
this one his system locks up with the mouse plugged in.

you're talking about the everglide ricochet 2.52 right?
i used to use it, and it is definitely not from aluminium.
feels more like plexiglass or something similar.

i wouldnt say its easily breakable.
no one would go and bend it like mad.
dunno if you can still get the other colors, cos there used to be a white and red, apart from the black version.

cept for one slight prob.
the Death Adder is not a laser sensor.
its using a 3rd Gen Infra Red sensor, essentially an upgraded Diamondback sensor.

come on, you're selling razer/everglide stuff, the least you could do is learn alittle more about the products.

actually i get a feeling razer has abandoned laser sensors and are making microsoft the guinea pigs for laser sensor gaming mouses, since thats what microsoft seems to like
im hoping the next mouse will be another ambidextrous mouse like Copperhead but with the Deathadder sensor.

photo editing? any of the razer mouses is good enough.
gaming? all depends what design you like.

the armadillo i'm not sure if its used to tidy up your desk.

for me, basically it gets irritating when i move the mouse and i can feel the friction from the cable, thats where the armadillo comes in.
the mouse now feels slightly 'lighter' cos very little friction, almost like wireless tho not there yet.

also very useful when you go LAN or competitions, cos you never know how big the table etc is gonna be, your cable could be falling over the table etc.
again the armadillo just fixes the cable in one position.

its something you can use to throw at someone who irritates you.

for a 2nd opinion, visit http://www.razerzone.com/Products/Gaming-A...use-Management/

yes, it locks the cable in one place.

when the cable is being dragged down, the head of the mouse feels heavier compared to the rest of the mouse right?
another problem is, when you move the mouse fast and the cable accidentally hits whatever is on your desk, eg. desktop, speakers, secretary, your accuracy for gaming can sometimes suffer.
both problems of cos solved with the armadillo.

yea, you'll spoil the table.
the laser sensor will cut thru the table, cut thru the floor, cut thru whatever is below.
thats why you use razer mats, it's laser proof.
so hopefully you dont place the mouse over your ahems if just using table.

just to add in alittle.
krait, diamondback = optical infra red, thats why you cant see the light.
deathadder = 3g infra red sensor which essentially is an upgraded diamondback sensor.

eh i posted 1 month ago.
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...9&#entry9865469

i dunno if the price reasonable or not, no feedback.

well...i can go ask the guy to make more.
how many of which you want?
right now i only have extra 2 of the green one only.

you can only set the on the fly to a key on the mouse, so with the krait you're obviously limited.
unless you know someone who can write you a new driver

you can change, but then of cos you waste the 2yr warranty.

i know someone here selling a new old stock boomslang 1000dpi, complete with the original tin can.
thats if its not sold yet, last time was RM280.

sensor wise.
deathadder is better.

ergonomics wise.
that is all up to you.
i prefer the copperhead shape more since i'm more towards fingertip contol and prefer bottom of my palm resting on the pad, rather than whole hand on the mouse.
