I'll admit, that mouse looks sexy as all hell.

How much would it cost USD?

That has a nice sort of retro look to it, and judging by the pictures it has a button on the left and right side, for vile lefties I imagine? Or they just flipped the picture without telling anyone.

Anyway it's nice to see a mouse that doesn't have glowing lights and shit on it that actually performs. I'm happy with my G5 though
when they really get to know you they will run

the mx300 and G1 are two of the most favoured mice of bw progamers - and i think the G3 will be too as it is again the same shape only with better sensor.
So... this mouse IS a bw topic.

i´m pretty sure that the left mouseclick hangs,like the other versions,pilot wheel mouse optical,G1...logitech is such incompetent.

i mean,that the left mouseclick can´t be clicked.
it "hangs".it doesn´t push back.
that failing was on my old pilot wheel mouse optical.
i read this kind of defect in a lot of forums and that don´t look like a exception

@ sepiroth: i had logitech wheelmouse, later logitech wheel optical and at the moment G1 - all work(ed) perfect and none of the buttons ever hung or sth like this.

but the buttons look and sound "cheap" to me - like the ktec-6500 ones much better

they're fragile though : not recommended for those who aren't letting their finger lying to the mouse and click harder (would better buy a mx500 or 310 for small hands or even the fatality's mouse ;p)
Even if they doesn't look good, who cares ? Since you'll let your hand recovering all the mouse's surface ? That's pretty stupid when it comes to have the better looking hey-look-at-me-my-mouse-rocks mouse... -_-
I've logitech wheel mouse optical (the same of the g3 with less dpi), tried mx310, mx500, mx510 and so far the mx500/510 fits perfectly to my hands.

uh someone would have to repost that list but i know at least some pros use mx300/mx310, i think quite a few do. and even if it isnt progamers and its all the "white dudes" go for these mice, then its more applicable because all the white dudes are the ones reading this site. STFU already.

STFU. i'd rather read this mouse topic than all the nonsense you post and all the shitty threads you've made. when you post so much crap you dont have the right to tell someone what does and doesn't belong in this forum. gtfo.

Umm... beavis.smurf, we've had a numerous amount of threads like this before which were about mice & mousepads and we've never had any problem with it. This is CLEARLY a Brood War topic.

Notice that you're the only one who's having a problem, getting upset and all and not us?

On topic: I hope that thing has a dpi adjustment. 2000DPI for stacraft? Thats nuts! But im guessing thats what the 2 extra buttons are for.

But it is true that the most favoured mouse in progaming isn't the mx300, it's the logitech mini optical
though it doesn't justify your stupid trolling.

I never said it would be "THE most favoured..." but "ONE OF the ..."
The postet list isnt really up 2 date ( i think about 2years old?) but it shows that a lot of use(d) the mx300 and the G1 / G3 are more or less the same mouse with higher dpi.

@ whoever asked it: u can adjust dpi "on the fly" to 800 / 1600 / 2000
I know 2000 dpi are no advantage @ bw compared to 800 but i cant imagine it gives any disadvantage (tested copperhead@2000dpi in bw and it worked fine only the shape sucked for me after a while) - i think u only have to set down the sens as 2000dpi are damn fast ^^

@ caution: "mini wheel" is a ball mouse so lets say the older version, "mini optical" ... u can guess urself what it is

I think if we would have a list of 2006 there wont be that much ball mouse users but some more with G1, ktec-ktm6500 ...

@ WireFrame: G1 is pretty good and isnt to much (about 29€ in europe)

btw saw the new Razer Krait today in stores - seems to be nice as well, but i cant really say that without gaming with it for some days.
Shape seems to be same as the Razer Viper had...

the razer 1.6 feels completely different on your hand. I got one and after a week I gave up trying to get used to it.
The buttons are really long (they're supposed to be 'slip-proof') and if you're used to clicking with the tip of your finger sometimes it's not enough pressure to click. You have to get used to laying your fingers completely flat.

Obviously missing 1 click can be a devestating mistake which is why I think I'll stick to the cheap microsoft mouses

No, u didn't get the point. The Krait is promoted from razer to be a rts optimized mouse - it is smaller and lighter than the copperhead/diamondback - as i said it looks like the older Razer Viper.

And 1600dpi or 2000dpi doesnt matter really - i am much more interested in the handling of the mouse.
