Heh, I got a G9 because I could, and because my old mouse broke. It's certainly a really nice mouse.

gozzer just doesn't like consumerism obv ;o

Only £3 for that mouse?? thats a really nice price ^^
I paid £5 for a mouse who lasted 1 weekxD

my friend bought a £5 from tesco and apparently it was aweful xD

Are you from the 90's!? A mousepad?!

Heh, I've got an el-cheapo-but-good cloth mousemat. It's really good, and stops the feet getting more scratched up.

i have a pro mouse mat that lights up on the edges and has 4 usb hubs ^^

can you send link/add picture?:D

i use a mouse pad/mat so suppose i am from the 90s^^

the difference between razer lycosa, lycosa special edition and arctosa:

I'd never heard of the Arctosa, looks like a simplified version from that table, should be cheaper, I guess.

Razer megalodon will now release Q1 2009 (no megalodon for x mas)

ive upgraded now i have a microsoft reculsa and a microsoft livechat lx-3000 headset and a cheap trust gaming mouse. im happy so far with these equipments

Well the Reclusa is a Razer peice of equipment, IIRC (MS worked with Razer on it).

Thats why i posted here XD

fyi Lycosa is pretty cool

am currently looking at the new keyboard, either logitech or razer atm, not certain however.

am also buying a new fatal1ty headset prob, (my desk mic fails ). and am considering an upgrade on my mouse to the deathadder.

Have already purchased a mouse mat (steel! ) as using the desk is quite crap sometimes and im pretty sure it's wearing my mouse down as well

I can strongly recommend the Logitech, as you probably well know. It's such a fantastic keyboard, even withot all the features (only really use the backlight and screen is set to show CPU/RAM use for curiosity's sake, sometimes use the media keys, haven't tested the G keys yet). It is, by far, the nicest keyboard I have ever used. Heck, my mum used it once and commented that it felt nice.

Fat1lity headset is frankly amazing for the price. Been using mine for months with no issues, and can't complain about the quality at all. Even dropped them about 1.5m and they came out fine, with one little scratch from my radiator.

can;t comment on mouse, but you got the reason I bought a mousemat, slow the wear on the mouse feet.

i did have a really nice mousemat but i spilt squash on it -.- and now the mouse doesnt respond moving over it, which isn't good .

yeah, a few people have reccomended fatal1ty to me so that's what i'm going for.

i guess i could go for the logitech keyboard...but the razer looks nicer! though, the razer has issues with how long it lives for (actually so does the deathadder) so will probably go for the logitech now...

as for a new mouse, that's probably just for the hell of it but the mouse feet do look worn on my one so i expect i will be buying a new one soon.

now i just have to research prices D:

You can buy replacement feet for mice moderately cheaply.

tbh, my keyboard is fine, its just crappy and looks ugly. so thats why im replacing lol cos ive pretty got my favourite setup now when the mousemat arrives and i buy a headset for a proper mic. other than that im happy with everything i have

Logitech have just launched a new load of keyboards/mice/stuff.

hmm, that's interesting. i'll have to look into whether i buy the new keyboard or not then!

"Next up we have the G9x mouse which is an updated version of the G9 which has a new laser sensor which operates from a silly 200dpi to an insane 5,000dpi. Apart from the new sensor there doesn't seem to be much that makes it differ from the old G9, as the G9x also comes with a selection of weights, onboard memory for storing profiles and two interchangeable grips."

might buy this mouse when it release in march/april

It's not gonna be cheap at about £69 :O

The only reason I bought a laser mouse, back in the day, was because my desk surface required it and an optical mouse was unusable.. cursor flicking all over the place.
