A well-made mouse.
I bought this mouse because my old wireless one died and I needed a new one that could handle the abuse of several gamers using it. Overall, I am quite satisfied with it. The only problem I encountered was that it doesn't come with the software drivers to use it, but requires you to download them. When I tried, I got an error message everytime I tried to install them. This has kept me from being able to reprogram the buttons, however, since the two side buttons come pre-programmed to Back and Forwards I haven't had too much trouble with it.

The sensitivity adjustment is very useful. I tend to just use one, but other members of my family use the others. Also, the adjustable weight, while not something I felt I needed, is a nice touch.

Finally, I haven't had any problems using the feet on my mouse pad. In fact, I haven't even tried the other two sets that came with it. They sit in the cord/weight/feet holder, which is another nice touch.

All in all, I'd probably give this mouse a 4.5 for not being able to dowload the software to truly use its full potential, but it's good enough in other ways to merit a 5.

A mouse you must buy
I have had this mouse for three months now. It's a beautiful thing I tell you. The weights and adjustable cursor speed make this usable for anything from gaming to graphic work. Nicely built, and fits comfortably in your hand.

Super high Quality
The quality of this product is unmatched by the other mice manufacturers.
It fits my large hand nicely an comes with alot of extras.Well worth the money.
My only complaints is not enough buttons and no sideways scroll.

Pretty good mouse, but different from your usual Microsoft Mouse
The mouse weight and DPI adjustability (is that a word?) are great. It's a pity that it won't work well with my USB KVM :(

super nice
very high quality, this was for a gift, the person that I gift it to was in shock, he did wish to have it since long time ago, but it was out of his budget, here I found a very good price.
