Hi, I was reading about the sticking mouse button on the WoW mouse, and I am a little reluctant to 'pull up on it like you are going to break it'. Is that really a solution or should I contact the manufacturer for a new one. Other than the occasional sticking problem, I love the mouse. But then again, in the middle of a boss fight, if it sticks I might just break it for real.
TheProfosist:
yes it is really the only solution out there besides getting a new mouse i was actually told to try that by their support before considering rmaing mine. i would try that as a temporary solution but also rma your mouse with the company. they will ask you to wait till late january or early febuary to send it if youd like because that is a big defect in the origional product and the should have a revision of the mouse that fixes that in production by then. thats actually why their not shipping to some contries mostly european and asian. once you pull back on it like your going to break it you will hear a large crack stop pulling then then click it a few times like you normally mine worked fine after that but still had a squeeking sound that it didnt origionnally have so i decided to still rma it but i am waiting till the revised version hit production.
if your wonder what actally caused the stickyness unresponsiveness and squeeking its due to the fact that the right and left click are made in layers which have to be hand put to gether in order to get the finish and feel of the brushed metalish surface.
hope i was able to help and if you need any more help or have anymore questions please ask. also if you having trouble with the in game macros and how to set them up which is something many people who have the mouse dont understand how to do. it is on my blog in one of the more recent posts

Ok, did it and got scared :) We'll see how it works but it sounds better. Thanks, I'll probably call for a replacement next month. No, I got the idea of the macros down easily, I actually don't use that many. What I wanted was to be able to add functionality without moving my left hand around, so that works well. The only draw back, and it is purely a convenience thing, is I would like to see automatic character detection and profile switching.
TheProfosist:
well it kinda does when you nimport your character into the software it gives it a default set of controls but if you mean for the program to be able to detect what character you are playing in game at the time and switch thats very possible but unlikely because blizzard wouldnt realease that much of the source code. realy the mouse/driver just acts as any other keyboard/mouse/input device to WOW. WOW never gives any realtime info to the program.

That's what I figured. It was just sort of a wish list thing. Also on the list is a split natural type gaming keyboard like the g15, so I could match lighting schemes. Mouse is working without sticking so far :) Thanks again.
TheProfosist:
well im am full content their 7g keyboard the only problem i have is that its not back lit
the reason i like the keyboard is because it still uses the hardware/mechanical style keys instead of the membrane plastic keys. the contact in the key are gold plated the keyboard respond to your every slight movement the key registers about half way pressed maybe a little less so the reviews saying tat its slower typing wise and such are just do to the fact that the person is a heavy typer and needs to feel the key hit the back plate. also the keyboard is built like a tank nothing could take this thing out. it is surprisingly very ergonomic due to the large slightly sloping palm rest it. the keyboard actlly has a ps2 connection which thay chse due to the fact that ps2 has a bigger buffer than usb for keyboard and mouse things. this allows you to press every key on the keyboard at the same time and as long at the program suporrts that many keys being pressed down they wil all register.
i love the keyboard but wish it had backlighting like i said before sadly the only way to ad this to a mechanical keybaord is individual leds in each key and with the board already being $150 that would make the price skyrocket even more
if your looking for a good basic gaming mouse like the bare min always works never a problem responces to your every movement loook into the ikari laser its by far the best gaming mouse i have used i still have it i run it with my MMO mouse 7G keyboard SX mousepad and Siberia neckband headset
if your looing for a productivity mouse look at the MX revoultion definatly the most comfortable and most ergonomic mouse i have ever used. i paired it with the dinovo edge which is an amazing keybaord very ergonomic beautiful design. sadly i no longer have this set due to the fact that my steelseries set fulfills everything that is needed on that computer
but my latest set is a logitech MX1100, razer lycosa, SteelSeries SP mousepad, the MX1100 is by far the best mouse i have ever owned it perfectly combines a productivity mouse and a gaming mouse. essentially logitech took the mx revolution and combined it with the g5 and took into condsideration the falts of both. it has the ergonomics and comfortability of the mx revolution but then have adjustible dpi 400-1600 and a hidden button under the thumb. they also fixed the micro gear scrool wheel pronblem that the MX revoltion had where you switch modes from fee spin to click modes by pressing the scroll whell which disabled center click or middle click(which they now have brought back so you have a 5 butoon gaming mouse +1 more buton) and you had to hold it down to wait for a clutch to catch this is now just a button and is flawless. also the razer lycosa has the ergonomics of the dinovo edgo tochcensored media controls and has backlightling and anti ghosting with a usbport and headsetports on back. the SP is just a great mouse pad plastic very smooth but dosnt work with gen 1 laser mice due to its dimpled design with gen 2 & 3 on the other had this greatly incleases its tracking accuracy as it did with infrared mice
