I just said a silent prayer and gave thanks for the fact I didn't know that.

No offense meant (or was there, muhahahahahaha)

I bought this last woot-off... seems like an ok mouse, but I didn't notice the lack of thumb button(s.) No button 4 makes me a sad monkey,.

I bought this mouse from woot not too long ago. The packaging had a picture of Korean pro-starcraft player Nada on it.

That alone makes this mouse worth it.

For everyone complaining that it isn't wireless... Do you not own scissors?

Razer is a great brand, but the thought of using a 3 button mouse is painful. I need my forward and back buttons, they are a part of my life!

I use a Razer mouse and love it. The one I have is a higher model than this one but for the price you can't go wrong with it. It'd be great for someone who wants to improve their PC gaming, or even just for casual use.

Where are these "3 programmable buttons"? If they refer to the wheel and standard right and left, its not worth gaming with.

I am with you there! This is only my 2nd Woot Off. I'm a noob and I'm addicted!
Shop 'til ya drop!

How ironic is it that mice would be eaten by the very snakes they are named for?

That said...bring on the Copperheads, my fav classic Razer mouse.

doesn't everyone have one of these by now?


will woot not stop selling them until the whole world has one?

I love the one I picked up on the last woot-off. No fancy-schmancy extra buttons for me! It's all about simplicity.

...and rhyming. *cough*

Tell me about it... I work on a mac with a single clicker! I had to Upgrade to 3 buttons

That's over 6 miles per hour for anyone looking to buy this for transportation.

Once again. Have you tried reading This thread and sending a PM to agingdragqueen?

She was working on getting payouts to people.

This is about 40 bucks anywhere else. Grabbed two.

Sooo, you were supposed to get 50 bucks for 45 seconds worth of sub-par photo editing, and never received it?

Get over it.
Move on with your life.

I highly recommend everybody check out the first link...I'm not going to boycott Woot, but if that's the way STUNNARD looks, I'm going to read everything she has to write...

Angry I missed the key board earlier. Hope they have it again

Or,as deadbishop notes...Exactly

On top of that, Woot (or w00t) is also l33t-speek; it is/was an acronym in co-operative games for "We Own Other Team".

if that translator would have worked for leet, I would have bought 3 of them

I wouldn't own a Razer product again. As for not being wireless ... until they operate without any lag, I won't own a wireless gaming mouse either.

LMAO, well done sir, well done.

Sorry, but no 3-button mouse should be considered a "gaming mouse". Faker.

45 seconds? I'd say that would include opening and saving in Photoshop.

My first woot off, bought the mouse. Glad I didn't buy it at Fry's for $40 yesterday!

I guess I'm an old-school gamer. I just use the right and left click buttons on my crappy old mouse, and the keyboard for everything else. This will be a vast improvement. In for 2!

Gamer mice are almost wired. Check the Steel Series Xai, Ikari, or IntelliMouse 3.0 or 1.1

SOME MOUSE!

I bought this on the last Woot Off, great mouse, I love it. Fantastic buy for the quality.

Gosh darn it! This is the second time I missed these in a Wootoff! I bought three of them, gave two away, and promptly left mine in a computer lab, never to be seen again.

Arkie123 wrote:I thought we were in the world of "Say NO to wires!"

wires will always be better and more reliable for gaming.

Noo, I was in Calculus and missed this... I need a new mouse too. Curse you education, blocking me from buying gaming stuff.

Just received mine today. Have not yet had a chance to do any pwning. Upon unboxing, it seems bigger than some of the other comments indicated.

It's very light, but by no means flimsy (*cough* Gyration Air Mouse *cough*). The buttons are light but deliberate, and are 2/3 the length of the device, necessitating a "claw"-style grip. It does seem to glide around rather effortlessly on just about any surface (likely due to the teflon feet). As it lacks the standard FW/BK buttons, it's truly an ambidextrous mouse. The "on-the-fly" switches on the bottom are a nice touch, but I can't see anyone taking the time to flip the switches mid-match. A 1/4" movement @ 1800dpi moves the cursor about half a screen, but the sensitivity is fully adjustable in the software.

Oh, (heh) and all the paper documentation is in Korean with an english PDF on the disc. Unfortunately, the disc only contains a downloader and the PDF, no driver/tweaking software. An internet connection is necessary to install the software and latest driver, but Windows' standard mouse driver seems to work like a champ.

Given its lack of FW/BK buttons and the switches being on the bottom, it's probably best suited to RTS games (hence the Starcraft champ's endorsement). For FPSes, I think I'll stick with my G5, but overall, for a shade over $18 shipped, I'd call this rodent a steal.
