 It took someone long enough to figure out!!! November 22, 2009
J. Gammage
WoW gamer for going on 5 years here. I NEED BUTTONS!!!! I have been using an MX610 Laser Mouse for most of this time as it had about 9 buttons and was fully programmable. Had they kept manufacturing it, I probably would have stuck with it (that they discontinued this mouse and rereleased it as a lefty is just salt in the wound). Well, my MX 610s were falling apart and I needed a replacement badly - something up to date that I could buy and keep buying (given that I am hard on mice/keyboard/etc)!
BUT WHY IS IT THAT EVERY FREAGGIN GAMING MOUSE ONLY IS MADE FOR ACCURACY, SPEED, COMFORT, ETC!?!?!?! That's all well and good, but any real PC gamer is going to want a gazillion buttons too - especially for MMO's. What is the point of making these awesome mice with only 4 or 5 buttons?
So walking out of the store I see this thing yesterday and about crapped my pants. Look at all those buttons - and it works exactly like you think it should! I am so happy with this thing! I've never felt a mouse move so smooth and it is so accurate - and futher fine tuned through software. I can't say enough good things about it - worth every stinking penny.
Got some gripes though:
Customization - I guess it was too much to be able to fully program this thing. You have your choice of two modes:
A) Keyboard mode where the 1-12 buttons map to your keyboard 1 through "="
or
B) num-pad mode where these buttons map to the keypad 1-0, -, +.
No, you can't just map whatever keys you want to it. Not that it matters, because you can easily map your number keys AND your num-pad keys separately in WoW. It'd be nice though...
Size - It's a tad smaller than the mice I'm used to. Then again, I have BIG hands. I wish it was just a little bit bigger or that the buttons were a little more spaced apart. I suppose it's perfect if you can't palm a basketball (like me, lol). Don't get me wrong either. Even though it's a little small for my hands, it still fits comfortably - these guys KNOW what they're doing!
No Tilt - I'm just nit-picking here, because you really don't need the extra tilt buttons. It has TOO many buttons as it is, lol.
Final Thoughts: If you are like me and you got a Nostromo on one hand and have all 3 modes mapped out (or have just about every key bound on your keyboard), then this is the mouse compliment you have been looking for. Finally someone figured it out!
 Overall i got what I paid for. November 21, 2009

It's worth the money. If you want serious response time for gaming this is the mouse to get.

 Lies about addon's. November 19, 2009

On the box and in the product description, this mouse claims to have addons for "World of WarcraftTM and Warhammer Online: Age of ReckoningTM, and more".
Turns out "and more" is nothing more than a lie. There is no other addons for any games except these two. When asking their customer support about this, they dodged the question but replied with "There are no further addons scheduled at this time." Yeah? Then take it out of your product description.
Another thing to note, there are two buttons on top of it to the left of the standard left-click. If you click the front most one more often than 5 seconds, it will also do the second ones command. I look awfully silly jumping up and down every time I go to select an enemy.
Wait until the product gets the software it advertises, and fixes the hardware defects.
Needs better drivers, Half comfortable buttons November 16, 2009
pen name (USA)
This works as a mouse and USB HID keyboard. The 12 buttons are seen as keys. I could not change it with the drivers. It may be possible with custom drivers.
The back and forward buttons next to the left button are uncomfortable. They don't click like mouse buttons. They are on the edge of the mouse. I have to press them with the right half of my index finger or I'll click the left button accidentally or it feels like I could twist my finger off.
Buttons 1-2 & 4-5 are usable, 3 & 6 are high. I don't use 7-12 since I'm not as precise with my thumb joint. If you press and hold multiple buttons, they repeat like 125612561256125612561256...
