    Wireless 7 Button mice

    I've been looking and looking and haven't been able to find anything. I currently have a Razer Copperhead which I love. I'd really like to have something comparable in a wireless format. I'm not talking about the DPI or anything like that, just the physical qualities: Ambidextrous shape with...
