    Recommend me a gaming mouse...

    ...Looking for a good, comfortable gaming mouse. Must be wired

    Currently seriously considering a Boomslang, but wondered if anyone else out there prefers another?

    Just to chip in:

    I have an MX518 and two MX510s - amazing mice, very highly recommended. I can't use a mouse with less than 8 buttons nowadays

    Can pick a 510 up for under 30 squid in a few places.

    Ooh - the 518 looks purdy - Any idea when Scan will have some more in stock Mort?

    518, im using a mx700 and its awsome, used it for 3 years now. mx518 is newer though. Or check overclockers and look at the new mx that has just come out. G something i think at the top of gaming mice

    I'll be placing an order this weekend if they're in stock

    Also I prefer to avoid OCUK if at all possible for reasons well documented elsewhere.

    EDIT : What are the chances that the 518 will be in stock for this weekend?

    Why must it be wired, you on a laptop or something?

    Do yourself a favour and a MX logi laser mouse - its the best gaming mouse you can get, and ive tried the lot.

    all i wanted was a mouse with a frickin laser beam, and now ive got it.

    I have an MX310, and I like it. I found the wireless Logitech mice I used to be too heavy compared to what I'm used to.

    It's on the way to us .. but I'll have to see if theres any chance for an arrival tomorrow...

    (I think there may be more of a delay for the G-series mice & keyboards - but i'll see if there is any update on them also)
