This doesn't sound right, why would a mouse need always-on internet connection? I shot an e-mail over to Razer to see what they had to say. I'll let you know if we hear something back. Thanks to [H] forum member one_fell_swoop for the link.
Razer forces you to create an account with them before you can use the software with the mouse. You cant configure the mouse in any way until you make an account with them and activate your computer and account through their server. If they decide to take down their activation server for any reason, you will never be able to use the software. If you live somewhere without access to internet, you will not be able to activate and use the software. If you work somewhere that has a network behind firewalls, chances are even though you can download the Synapse software, the firewall may also block you from activating and using the software as well.
