I think my IME 3.0 lasted about 5-6 years.. mouse button 1 now has an annoying double click problem - as in you can't really hold down the mouse buttons anymore. well, it's from 2001....

edit: compared to build quality on my salmosa, which lasted about 2 weeks before an annoying squeak from the mouse buttons started.

I'm using a Logitech G9 as well, and i love it. Except for the fact that the coating on my fatty grip is disintegrating - it just feels really gross. (On a side note is there anywhere that sells replacement grips?)

I also bought a Razer Salmosa for my work laptop. The annoying thing about it is that the left mouse buttons squeaks. I'm sure the "mouse' it wasn't advertised as having realistic sounds lol. While i wasn't expecting the best quality mouse for the price i was paying, the fact that it started squeaking a few weeks into the purchase. So when I try sneaking in some games while Im at work, the noise draws too much attention and it makes it too obvious that I'm not working.

I got the first batch of G9s and i really hated the disintegrating rubber on the fatty grip. Did they change the material on it?
