Haha, I love how they quote max acceleration and friction co-efficients for a mouse :D

That does look like a serious bit of kit!

Out of interest, what do all the buttons on the side of the mouse do and do you use them in games with custom mapping?
 
lol, yeah the specs they come out with are funny arn't they.

The buttons are the usual back and forward, customizable for any game/application wit hteh middle side buttom being new. and again can be set to what ever i want.

I love the free running mouse wheel. great for just flicking and scrolling though very long pages etc. one press of the button on top and it back to normal clicking. :)
