    Looking for a wireless gaming mouse

    Hello all,

    My RAT7 took a crap after 2.5 years, and I figure that since I've recently bought a laptop desktop replacement and retired my desktop PC (well, turned it into a media center PC), I'd like to get a wireless gaming mouse.

    I don't care much for FPS games, so I don't need an amazing, over-priced pro-gamer piece of hardware. I'd love to keep it under $50. I'm using a crappy $3 usb optical mouse as a replacement and it's working just fine for my needs. I just want to lose the wire.

    I had found the roccat pyra wireless mouse and it fit my needs perfectly, but I can't seem to find one ANYWHERE besides ebay (and I hate to use ebay). I suppose if I can't find any alternatives I'll break down and buy from ebay.

    What I want:

    A well-built mouse
    Small usb dongle (pref. one that can be placed in the mouse)
    Either a rechargeable battery that can charge via USB cable while still in use, or will take standard AA batteries.

    Any recommendations will be appreciated! Thank you!
