First time making a blog entry on TL. And just wanted to ask this:

Can anyone recommend something that is around the size of my old Razer Diamondback except a little wider? I love the shape of my Diamondback but having to rest my ring finger too close to my middle finger (I place my ring finger on that corner between the RMB and the right side of the mouse) got a little tiring sometimes. How does the MX518 compare? How about the Salmosa or the Abyssus? Or the G9x? I've also seen some G1's and G3's for sale. (The G1 comes bundled with a keyboard though which I won't have any use for)

I play with fingertip grip, have a pretty big hand I guess (7 inches from the tip of my middle finger to the top of my wrist), but I don't really mind small mice (I've used a friend's Razer Orochi before and had no trouble with holding it comfortably, but I don't plan on getting that as I'll never play wireless anyway so I doubt I'd get to utilize that functionality). Do note that while I fingerip grip it, I dislike having the butt of the mouse just touching the tip of my palm (which is something that happens when I tried holding a friend's Lachesis)

I made an img for that thread that compiled the dimensions of a lot of poupular mice, that might help. The Deathadder is only ~7mm wider, and that is one of the widest mice, so I'm not sure how much of a difference that's going to make. Oh and according to your specs, the Diamondback is approx. 129x63x38.5

Hmm, the G9x seems to get the widest grip. I might just look into that.

Thanks.
