    Wireless wonderful?

    Logitech asks gamers to go wireless or not to go wireless?
    Watch the show.

    The first wired/wireless mouse aimed at gamers? Razer's had one for a while now.

    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    0iD: Plus weeing in it every now & again does it good
    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    I wouldnt spend that much money a mouse no matter how good it is because i would be use it for gaming so to be fair the mouse is only as good as the person using it

    Yeah definitely not the first, he may have said oriented to mmorpgs and does mention mmorpg features later, not sure if Razer have a naga wireless/wired combo.
    He's not making much sense though, suspicious of the input lag between plugging in for charging/being wireless. Show me I can believe in it by sending me one to review, could also be a pain to replace the battery (which will become damaged as people just use it wired and mess up the battery).
    Slightly cheaper than the Mamba launch price?

    Re: Wireless wonderful?

    I don't like wireless input devices, personally I normally use a trackball where there is no point in wireless. My problem with most wireless devices is they go into sleep mode quite quickly and reconnecting takes up to 1/2 a second. Which is fine with games where you are mousing all the time, however if you play a game like X3 there are periods of inactively, after which you find you being shot at and everything has gone to sleep. (I have a wireless joystick, bought before my wired one..., I purchased a wired one because of the sleep problem). Ok this mouse charges however I do find wireless devices have the batteries run out at the worse possible time. You either pay a fortune in batteries or use rechargable ones and have to replace them all the time.
