I think optical mice are a lot better for gaming, but I am just not updated. |

Logitech Optical Mouse
It was $29 when I bought it a long while back. It works fine atm until I can get a MX518, I wanted the G5, but noticed too many complaints about it at my friends tech shop <_< |

redfac18 they also ship other ways:
UPS Guaranteed 3 Day Service - Delivery within 3 business days.
UPS 2nd Day - Delivery within 2 business days.
UPS Next Day Saver - Delivery in 1 business day.
Orders shipping via UPS Guaranteed 3 Day Service may ship via UPS Ground if UPS can guarantee a ground delivery to your shipping address in 3 or fewer days.
I for one personally prefer FedEx, since their warehouse is only about a mile away. 
sobe, I heard complaints about it as well. Which is another reason I haven't bought it. I am thinking about the Logitech MX518 as well, it might not be as accurate but do I really need a mouse that accurate?

| Quoting NoClanFrank | I use a Logitech® 510MX mouse but I am considering upgrading again.
I have a used 500MX mouse that was acting a little funny. The mouse I am considering getting is the Logitech® G5 Laser Mouse. Nitro has tried to talk me into getting the cordless mouse version of it but I never really trusted a cordless mouse. That would be too weird. It's like going to the pet store and asking for a mouse without a tail. |
yea im working on saving after i get a car but i only dream of either but i use a cheap basic locitech opitical 10$ lol i went through a few over the years from playing RF the game really strains my hands. cant keep a beat like i used to.
yea fedex sucks UPS all da way love their prices too and i got my first purchase from them it was a 512MB ram  and was shiped in 3 days |

I just don't like UPS <_< That 3-day gauranteed shipping... It's total BS! lol, I ordered a LinkSys Wireless-G w/Speed Booster & 2 LinkSys Wireless-G w/Speed Booster pci cards, and I used that UPS 3 day gauranteed shipping, it got to me house 7 days later <_<
But with FedEx, I get it around 3 days.. So I don't like UPS! lol
Also, the MX518 is worth the money, and for only $33 from NewEgg!
Logitech MX518 2-Tone 8 Buttons 1x Wheel USB + PS/2 Optical Mouse - $33 |

I have the same mouse. Told you I wanna be like Frank. Anyway, I had a Microsoft blue and I miss it. I had that left click worn down so nice. It finally gave up on me though, and I thought I would move up, but really don't like the 510 as much.  I could have saved a buttload of money but just buying another Blue. |

i would like to see the stats of a regular mouses life vs. a gamers mouse life.
Gamers go through mice like tissues ... but ive seen other mice live long long lives.
do gamers mice really make that much of a difference to your game ...  |

why ... mice are mice ... you can only transmit data across a USB or PS2 soo fast, after that your mouse cannot perform better. is it just a comfort deal? |

you can get mice that have better control, but you still need skill to control the mouse.
You people just want the fancy gaming mice to use the drivers/software to cheat in RF with semi-autos, just like the 1000RPM cheaters you are. |

I use a A4 tech optical double scroll mouse with 2 extra buttons on the side( comes in handy with games like FEAR, to many dam controls needed for that game)
model No. WOP-49
best mouse I ever got. fan of A4 tech's mice
P.S I use PS2 coz it out performs usb by heaps and is more reliable |

Mine has on-the-fly DPI change ... i use this often and i believe it makes things easier for me, also the comfort factor is a big issue aswell and this mouse is THE most comfortable I have ever used.

LOL i can in fact have all 7 buttons set to fire and go wild on it ... but where is the fun in that?, the only thing i have on my mouse is a button that ive macroed to say "t, g, g, enter" (i keep hitting it at random times on msn and xfire aswell ) |
