Logitech G9 for $46 shipped AR

If you dont have one, jump on this, Sweet mouse. Good price. Highly recommended
 
kinda looks uncomfortable from the pictures, anyone own one? also whats the DPI on it? I was looking at the Razer Lachesis, but this is like $15 cheaper after rebate. I just dont want something that is awkward.

3200 dpi. It comes with 2 grips (one fat rubber one and a skinnier textured one) and is a finger mouse. I don't really find it comfortable for office use (use an MX Revolution instead), but for gaming it is very very good. You can manage a tonne of dpi settings on the fly. I operate at around 1600-2000 for gaming YMMV. I upgraded from a G7 due to the battery issues and am very satisfied with the G9. $46 is as cheap as I have seen it.

I tried the Razer Lachesis and found it to be terrible. The way the side buttons are positioned makes it hard to hold the mouse and even harder to actually use the buttons. I ended up returning it within days and went back to my MX-518.
 
I have a Lachesis and my roommate has a G9. I borrowed it for a while and the G9 a great all around mouse.

It is better for windows usage then the Lachesis due to the nice scroll wheel , and softer buttons. The Lachesis is a better true gaming mouse in the end, the high DPI really comes in handy and its super light for flicking, and the buttons are harder to press so you don't accidentally hit them but those traits can be unfriendly in windows..

This is a great deal , i'm very tempted to have both :D
 
Crap!

I'm waiting for Amazon to e-mail me my gift certificate for a return and I was planning on buying this mouse anyway with it! It was $75 before...

I bet its going to be sold out when my gift cert. is sent to me. :(
 
I just got a g9 from the egg. *3 days

I went from a g5 - overall i'm not impressed. i like the increased sensitivity, but I much prefer the g5 feel. I've got large hands (large gloves too) and it feels small to me.

I'm on the fence about returning. i'll try it a few more days before i decide.
 
I have fairly large hands but I prefer the G9 to the G7 after using it for a while. At first it felt odd but not that I'm used to it I don't like using my old mx518 at all.

Turn on the heat dude. Who wears winter clothing while gaming?
 
great mouse. I upgraded from an mx 5xx and I prefer the feel of the g9 with the smaller grip. I paid $65 for mine and I'd do it again.
 
This is by far the best mouse I've ever used. It trounces the MX518 and G7 that I had before it.
 
I wish my local best buy had these out for demo so I could try one out a little.

Also, does anyone else see this as being a preorder?

When I ordered it yesterday, under availability it said March 6, 2008. My order is now in "Will Ship Soon". Maybe they are out of stock of the ones they just got in?
