    4 out of 5 stars Nice mouse!   October 21, 2008
    A. Cosenzo (Wilmington, DE United States)
    This is the nicest mouse I've owned. It's great for gaming.

    It's not gigantic so it fits my hand well. It's nice and light. The mouse is very responsive and you can adjust the sensitivity level. It's sensitive enough to register even very slight movements. It also has a lot of programmable buttons. The cord doesn't tend to tangle, and I prefer a corded mouse because they can't run out of batteries. The mouse is also very cool looking if you care about that.

    I only have one complaint about this mouse. It has small slick tabs on the bottom of it to allow it to slide across tables easily. These tabs are held in place by some type of glue. For whatever reason the black glue melted and oozed out of the sides of these tabs, leaving little dots of black glue on my desk. I didn't notice until I saw the black dots on my desk and it took me a while to figure out that they were coming from the mouse. I was surprised to see this happening considering how nice this mouse is.

    I don't have the time to give a thorough review but suffice to say this mouse is excellent in every respect and very durable.


    5 out of 5 stars Gaming Mouse = Good Mouse No Matter How You Slice It   July 12, 2008

    After only a number of hours I can't imagine using any other normal mouse. While shopping for a 'gaming mouse' I was disheartened by the extremely overt negative reviews for every gaming mouse I could consider that was under $50.

    Like most things involving those who are young and with little else to live for, these types of devices seem to install 'loyalty issues' between one brand or another. All of the negative things listed about this mouse I find to be wonderful features.

    The material of the mouse is a wonderful soft rubber. The scroll wheel is large and has very pleasing control.

    As to the side buttons which everyone seems to hate. They are designed so that the thumb can press either of them easily at will without actually moving positions. To press one you use the joint part of your thumb, and the other you use the flat part. The buttons on the other side, where you of course don't have a thumb, are exactly the same way. Because this is an ambi-dexterous mouse, if you are left handed you still get the wonderfully designed thumb button. As far as being able to easily press the two buttons on the side of the mouse where you don't have a thumb, this unreasonable, but extremely understandable. They are still easy to find because they have tiny plastic bubbles to identify them, but when using your pinky and ring finger you may have to take a split second to identify them from each other. You're only going to need two extra buttons for extreme combat 'oh my god' reaction situations, so the two buttons on the non-thumb side can be for other things which require less instant action, or simply not used at all.

    The sensitivity changer-upper is controlled with one of the extra side buttons (you get to pick which one in the options, and that button can still have another function in addition to triggering the scroll wheel sensitivity change) + the scroll wheel. Whether you prefer this or a physical button on the mouse itself is simply personal preference. I love it being the scroll wheel, its simply easier for me to think about in my brain than having to find even MORE buttons on the mouse. Also the on-screen visualization is excellent, its visible but non-intrusive, and has shown up on top of every game I've tried it on.

    The main two buttons are very long, which again I have grown to like and not despise. I can have my fingers arched up and pressing directly down or I can relax them flat, either way is comfortable and I like the option. My hand goes to its normal combat position in games but when I'm simply reading long bits of internet my hand can simply rest comfortably.

    The software is excellent and there's no reason you wouldn't use it, but the mouse still 'works' when you first plug it in to Windows XP, so you don't have to worry about not having a functioning mouse if you need to reformat or some such.

    I couldn't recommend this mouse more. I paid less for it than it costs here on Amazon, but now that I've tried it, if a meteor smashed my room (and Diamondback) to bits I'd pay even more than $40 for a replacement.

    It's a good mouse with very tweakable features in Vista.
    As noted elsewhere, the side lights aren't as bright as the 1st gen, but that scroll wheel led will keep you up at night.
    The only problem with my first gen diamondback is the teflon wore down on the bottom. The 3rd gen has better software from Razer.

    If you are looking to take your gaming to the next level, this is the mouse for you. Precision, Precision, Precision. Prior to getting this mouse, I was getting creamed in COD4, but after my kill/death ration went way up. It may take a little getting used to, because it is only a slight movement and you're across the screen.

    I only have 2 cons about this mouse. First,(and this goes for all gaming mice)they need to make a wireless model. Second, occasionally when trying to press one of the thumb buttons, I end up pressing both at the same time and it has had some interesting effects, i am not sure why. Say i have a grenade programmed for that button, and a knife programmed for the second thumb button and i press them both by accident it may end up as a Knife, Grenade, or a jump??? But that only happens very rarely.


    All in all, a great buy!
