very very very true.....but i would like to add something about a4tech....the x7 series is really good...but to now haven't heard of news regarding problems that may surface...but here's a thing...my friend got a tad lower series than the x7(donno whether its the x series or others) and he had returned to the manufacturer for more than twice now coz the mouse keep failing(sensor)...so i'm actually thinking....is a4tech really reliable? is it really long lasting???

for now microsoft eventhough sidewinder has been "dead" for quite sometime...but with the new Microsoft Sidewinder Mouse(not talking about x5 or x8 but the as mouse that i've stated) really looks good and for the features they offer, its kinda good(to think that they wan to go into the gaming peripheral market again)...
I really support this....i'm a average gamer but now searching for a good gaming mouse...but i won't wan to have a mouse that doesn't suits me(ergonomics), i've been to a local pc shop in uk and tried palming the sidewinder, g5 and g9...so far the best are the sidewinder and g5.....there's another thing that we as consumers must have it mind is the money over product quality....are we paying what we get???...thats why if really wan to have a mouse that suits you and long lasting(by 2-3years, at least 2years), we must do our own research.....

what city life said was true...some brands like razer are monopolizing the gaming peripheral industry, thus they can pump up their prices without worrying losing of ppl buying coz their brand is popular...to me...eventhough the looks of razer mouse are very very tempting, but i've read and heard alot about the mice being faulty after 1 year of using(but depends on different level of usage).

ikari comfort +10
razer -10

no doubt ss ikari is more comfy...but somehow i just doesnt feel right holding the SS ikari...deathadder shape suits me more XD

or perhaps IME 3.0 =p

what im trying to say here is that ikari is comfy but it doent suits me that much...

you got a problem with that???

The WoW mouse is VERY uncomfortable. I've tried it, and I'm a WoW crackhead.

It's ugh, I don't know how to say. It doesn't suit any hand..

from the picture, seems not that bad isn't it?

Oh...what kind of the failure of sensor ur friend facing? Lagging? Un-detectable? Which model he bought?

Play around the WOW mouse capture some picture share - very sexy baby

nope...the sensor just failed...meaning cannot detect anything...I think he is using the glazer or run on shine mice....come to think of it i got another friend's a4tech mouse oso got wire problem...he said after some half year usage, the wire at the end of the mouse head starts to like 'unwired' then now the rubber coating also came out(only at that part). what he said that it needs to be rewired(soldering). but have you heard of any problems that x7 series might face??

p/s: i might be wrong of which model of mouse my friend uses.....i think it might be the 3x or something..haha
[/spoiler]

fuuuyooo ....juicy looking mouse...but abit worried about the comfortableness of the mouse....also...i think another mouse also fits the category of have like more than 8programable buttons.....has anyone heard of saiteck's cyborg mouse??...hehe..
