ParticipantAnyone use one?
Was thinking of buying one as my old optical mouse is getting on a bit now.

Participant2000 dpi laser engine
An ultra-high resolution engine churns images at an astounding 6.4 megapixels per second. A massive (30-pixel by 30-pixel) sensor array and precision laser technology provides best-in-class performance and tracking.G5 Laser Mouse
In-game sensitivity switching
The G5 provides instant access to three sensitivity levels 400 dpi, 800 dpi, and 2000 dpiâ€â€ÂÂbefore driver installation. Shift from pixel-precise targeting to fast-twitch maneuvers, without pausing the action.G5 Laser Mouse
Adjustable weight cartridge
Adjust the G5s weight and balance (up to 36 grams) for the control you need to dominate the competition.G5 Laser Mouse
Polytetrafluoroethylene gaming feet
Forget sticky workaroundsâ€â€ÂÂthe G5’s durable polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) feet give the ultra-smooth glide you want in a gaming mouse.G5 Laser Mouse
Full-speed USB
A 500 reports/second*, bi-directional connection delivers blazing speed and instant acceleration.I am liking the stats on that.
Only bad thing i can see with it is that its not wireless. I dont think i could go back to a mouse with a wire on it now.

ParticipantThe G5 r0x m8 i use one and so does insane (or at least he was but he was on about it being no good for his little girlie hands or summat)
Plus only big smelly/ noobiebumkin/air raping/stat/forum whores use a wireless mouse for gaming. ❗ 😆 8) 😯 ❓

ParticipantSweet, I knew the stats, but think it’s better to get a personal view on these things 🙂

Participantit being wired is a plus for it 😀 dunno why people get their wires all messed up or something like that. Have an mx518 and never have any trouble with the wires

ParticipantTried wireless couldnt get on with it, there was always noticeable lag.
Tried Logitech MX518, couldnt get on with it, mouse to big for me hand which is costly in a small firefight as you have to move your whole wrist instead of just your hand.
So, back with my standard HP rollerball mouse.

ParticipantI have a 21 inch screen, with my mx518 I make a small movement with my hand/wrist and can go any place on the screen

ParticipantGot an MX 5 its great. And I have used cordless Logitechs for 3 years now and it feels no different to go back to using the cord

+1 for me, and the battery is too heavy compared to a wired one…

ParticipantWell it arrived Friday, installed Saturday and going back as soon as my mate gives me the RMA number due to a faulty scroll wheel 🙄
