Woot to my new mouse!

I got a Logitech Mx700 from BestBuy for 69 smacks, I had found my old BestBuy gift cert from Christmas like 2 years ago, used it to help ;)

It's a Cordless Mouse with a recharge Base for when it's not in use.

Well I brought it home to test it, and of course the batteries it came with were dead, so I had to let them charge, but after a mere 20 minutes of charging it was DONE!

So I played Planetside and it was SO much smoother than my older Intellimouse Explorer, MUCH MUCH MUCH better. Plus it's charge just sticks! I haven't run low on batteries yet, even after 4 hours of playing.

I have no idea what the battery life is like, but it is long enough for a 20 minute recharge from dead to full!

Plus all the features, whew, lots of features!

    I find it to be just as smooth as my old intellimouse explorer, not really moreso, however. I got an mx700 two days ago. It also has a very slight twitch to which I've adjusted to, it's no longer noticeable unless I'm looking for it.

    I fooking love this mouse.

    Mice that allow me to rest my entire hand atop them are mice I use. The mx700 and Intellimouse Explorer v3 both are. Love 'em.

    There will only be two types of people in this world by Christmas....those who want those two mice...and those who have them.

    MX700 = The best mouse on the market.... period.

    Second best would have to be the MX500; the cheaper, corded version of the MX700.

    Yet another owner. Had mine quite a few months now and very pleased with it. As for charging, an hour tends to last about two days of excessive use for me. This means just putting it in the charger when I go out or go to bed and its fine the next morning.

    Its also ace for planetside because having 8 buttons comes in very handy, especially when flying my reaver.

    If you haven't got one, get one ;).

    Im an MX700 user as well :)

    It simply is an awesome mouse. The charge seems to last days of use and never goes down. It just rocks.

    I don't really see why everyone likes this mouse.

    It just looks like a turd to me.

    Maybe I have to give it a go to see what everyone is so slaphappy about.
