![]() Now I have no idea what to new mouse to buy...might just buy another copy of the salmosa though I want something even more lighter and has buttons that are easier to press. Btw you guys were right about the dpi thing. | ||

i know that if i used 3200dpi my mouse would be uncontrollable. i'd cover the distance of all my monitors with about 5mm of mouse movement. | ||

But it is true that on 1600 i cant get it to move only 1 pixel up when trying to draw straight lines but its irrelevant to me. It works great on 800 but 1600 has prediction? Ugh... I wanted to buy it specifically with the intention on using it at 1600. I can't think of another mouse that is shaped like this and has 1600+ dpi + is as light as this mouse. I'd say LMO but I've read it's only at like 500 dpi or so... Any recommendations people? | ||

It's somewhat old and the DPI isn't the best, but the build quality is amazing. It fits perfectly into my hand. Sadly it broke after about 5~6 years, and I'm now using a scope node. | ||

The issue I have with the salmosa is that the buttons are too hard to press. If they were easier to press I'd just get a new salmosa since this one is pretty old. I assume the asian edition probably has similar feeling buttons... Any other reports on the Zowie EC2? Does it have prediction issues as well? That looks like a decent alternative based on Ghostface_Killa's nice review. | ||

I also recall the kinzu having the same issues on 1600 dpi. That would make the mico basically a logitech G1...stuck on 800 dpi. Its disappointing they haven't been able to push this further. Hasn't it been years since they came out with the G3? Even it had something like 2000 dpi, although I recall reading it had some issues with low malfunction speed. | ||

I asked the guy if he could look for tracking issues such as emulated dpi, he tested it and had no such problems, could move the mouse without skipping on any dpi. | ||

personally, I use a logitech g9x (6000 dpi) and by looking at the comparison to the mx518, the g9x seems very similar in size to mico would be interesting to see how it feels mb I will see sum1 w/ it @ mlg anaheim ^^. | ||

I wanted to get a mico to upgrade from my salmosa. I might just end up buying the abyssus or if i don't like that i'll buy like 2-3 more salmosas bulk. | ||
