    ms explorer v3 seconded i have the version1, which has bigger buttons which is nice for my fat fingers, but it has the problem where it doesnt scan the desk enough times per second so it can be stupid if you move it too fast... but the v3 is fine, just the side buttons are smaller

    Mx500 here but the debate could go on forever between those 2 mice, either will be excellent (just the dodgytech will be better ).
