Post by **reefsurfer** » Sun Sep 25, 2005 1:02 pm

I posted a review about this baby earlier..but up until today i havent seen it or held it in my hands..

Tried it at a store today.. fucking awsome mouse, it has weights that you can put in it(a catridge undeneath the mouse) to get the best weight on the mouse..

..and the scrollwheel have 2 buttons(excluding the press down button) sorta speak..u can click it either way on the sides, so it tilts.

The shapw of it is close to the 518 but they have made the thumb form longer... more comfartble.

And its 2000 dpi compared to the 1600 dpi on the 518..and u notice the differance.

Its $100 here in Sweden, but i can get it for $80.
Its a must buy for me, just gotta sell my "old" 510.

I have the 510 and it has 2 thumb buttons.. so i, like you, are used to two, but the thing with the G5 is that you have the tilting scrollwheel to compensate the 2nd thumb button.
Its fucking kick ass.. go try it in a store and u'll see what i mean.. no need for 2 thumb buttons when ya ot that feature.

i see, i was thinking something different.
