    Hi, I'm a left-handed gamer, so there aren't many mice out there that work for me. The v450 looks like the best, but I've heard there might be interference with wifi. Has anyone owned this mouse and had problems? I'm thinking the wifi catcher on my 1520 might get confused by it as well.
    (By the way, the MX610 is not an option as it has terrible software, too many blinking lights and problems. Looking at the G3 and v270 too, but they don't look as comfy.)

    I have a V450 and also have a G7,I use the G7 at my desk setup with dock and monitor and the V450 when mobile or moving around as the battery life on the G7 is annoying when you don't have the spare and charger right beside you.
    No comparison for gaming,the V450 has a decent amount of lag and the G7 has none,but for general use the V450 is fine and as it is symetrical can be used both left and right handers.
    I havent noticed any wifi interference with either and my wifi router sits on a shelf diectly under my notebook.

    I don't like to have that fob sticking to the right side of my notebook since I'm right handed, so I use the fob on the left port and Logitech V450 has HORRIBLE blind spots.

    Been using one of these for just over a year and it's been great, battery life is really good and never had a problem with it. Also had better range than my desktop MX1000 mouse!

    Couldn't comment on lag as not a gamer :)
