I'm not keen on the looks but everything seems to be where I would like it to be. I miss my Logitech G5 dearly, using a G400 currently and while it's similar in shape I can't comfortably reach the second thumb button (I don't have huge hands but they aren't tiny either).
Looks like every button on the Zalman will be in reach and with the customization to the shape and adjustable weights (can't stand light mice) I think it's a winner. Especially if can be got for around £35.
Life is like a hair on a toilet seat. Sooner or later you're bound to get pissed off!
Well the looks certainly fall into 'acquired taste' territory, but personally i love the little windowed weights compartment!

after inititally thinking they were a bit of a gimmick I'm totally sold on adjustable mice. I have a RAT 7 at home and at work, as well as a RATm for my work laptop. It is surprising how uncomfortable it is to go back to a normal mouse now.
Quick question about the review, is the little auto catch to turn autoclick on & off? If so is the speed adjustable? If its yes to both this is the new favourite mouse of DMR noobs everywhere!
No left and right click on the scroll wheel and badly placed buttons on the side (just like most mice on the market). I'll pass.

Looks very Terminatorish. Well done Zalman
It looks like it's ready to transform in a robot any second.
I love the little hatch for the weights, it gives it an iron man / crysis look about it. The suggested price would make it worth looking at for me anyway. I use a rat 9 just now and am getting weary of swapping batteries all the time. I also find the rats thumb buttons a bit off compared to my old sidewinder.
I could live with the looks at that price (its certainly no worse than a rat) so I'll be keeping an eye out for one in sales or wait for a rechargeable version and see what the reviews say about its battery life.
Oddly enamoured with that, I have to admit. Very steampunk, love the weights and their little compartment, very nice.
If I ever do a Cyberpunk build this might be it. Maybe with an Asrock M8.

Maybe I'm getting old........
