    I have the Razer Copperhead - I like it - it has a profile switch button on the bottom for quick settings change - plus a built in 35kb ram for saving your preferences.

    You don't even need to ask my opinion. :p
    I LOVE Razer products, and think they are vastly underrated. I've got most of their product reviews in my sig if you are interested.

    I'd vote for avoiding laser mice, they don't do very well with quick flicks of the wrist. Optical technology is really much better, read up at esreality where they actually do some real testing.

    I like my MX518, but I prefer my new Death Adders surface material and shape a lot more.

    i have the razer copperhead and the g7 and i love both of em. as far as performance? copperhead. much more responsive, always on and looks way cooler than the g7. but the g7 is THE BEST WIRELESS MOUSE I HAVE EVER USED!!! no lag, very responsive, and has a very nice charging station. both are in the same price range so its a hard decision to make, so i just bought both. i mainly use my g7 when im just browsing and IMing. when the heat is on in CS:Source...i get my copperhead on.

    The Kensington Ci65m Notebook Wireless Optical Mouse rules them all.
