The Pros:User adjustable weights. Very smooth use. Nice texture feels good in the hand.
The Cons:Annoyingly stiff cord. Scroll click feels strange. Somewhat strange looking.

#logitech_g5 Good mouse made even better by a good mousepad. I love my steelseries cloth pad, cheap and large with a good texture for easy sliding. Huge improvement over my old smiall, slippery dome shaped pad.
