Been looking at lots of different mice, stumbled across this one.

http://www.i-rocks.com/Product_detail.aspx?CL...CT_ID=1246

It's basically a WMO shape, with a solid optical sensor (the one found in the Zowie AM). 1000hz, 900/1800/3500dpi, light (weight listed includes the cord), cheap ($25), no drivers, good build quality, and good mousefeet.

UNFORTUNATELY, two things. The first is high lift-off distance. I find that interesting since the Zowie AM uses the same sensor (Avago ADNS-A3090) yet has the opposite problem (too low LOD).

Secondly, they turned ON mouse prediction. With the 3090, you can choose whether you want it on or off when you're making the mouse. They unfortunately forced it on, and there's no way for the end user to turn it off. Kind of sad because that mouse had potential to be a solid product.

This video below shows more mice they're going to release with the same sensor (or so I've read).

Anyway, it's something to look out for.
