I just realized that there ae not only the G5 and G7 whichs shapes are not too good for broodwar but also an G1 with the shape based upon the mx300 and optical sensor of the mx510.

in the vod of boxer vs pusan i saw boxer playing with the G1

anyone has this mouse already? what do u think about it? i am thinking about changing my ktec ktm-6500 to an logitech G1 as the ktec drivers are the greatest crap ive ever seen (newer versions dont even work in english) while the logitec drivers are really good.

@ BrutalMenace: i have found it in a lot of german online shops (30€ - 45€) so i think it should be available in the US too (if not try ebay, there are tons of it ^^)

So that's why I'm not pro, my mouse isn't shaped correctly for BW!

But seriously I have the G5 and I'm kind of eh, I upgraded from a mx500. It certainly tracks smoother, the dpi is noticeable, but it's also missing a few buttons and some of the functions, albeit useless ones like the sensitivity changing buttons don't work

Good time to replace my mx300 with G1.

i have this mouse

changeable definition of 400/800/1200/1600 dpi (it changes colors when u change the definition, woohoo), acceleration up to 15g, teflon pads, 6500fps, the buttons have a special anti-slip-surface which you don't need because of their form, some more fancy stuff.
seriously, there are so many "gaming mouses" out now that you can just go to the store and be sure you will find a good one. i love it. =)

the Razer Copperhead is the best RTS mouse, combine that with the eXact mat and YOU HAVE THE ULTIMATE in gaming warefare.

ah and thats the reason why none of the korean progamers uses the razer ? - lol
technicaly the razer is the best ive ever seen - but its shape isnt the best for broodwar by far.

!!!This is NOT an "which/my mouse is the best" thread!!! So please post only to the topic!

@chicken: they also released an G15 gaming board - but i think each standard keyboard with the right size of the buttons and a good klick feeling is pretty good for gaming.

hmm anyone knows wether there are english G1 drivers for non asian windows versions? or does each logitech mouse need the same logitech mouseware?
dont wanna buy this one only for having the same problems as with my ktec ^^
