...for $35.99 plus there's a $5 off coupon floating around somewhere. Should I buy it and sell my Intellimouse Explorer? I love the Explorer but the cord is starting to piss me off.

Would $30.99 shipped be a good deal on this mouse? Is it a good mouse?

I have 57 minutes remaining....

No. Though I will play Doom 3 when it comes out. Usually don't have much time for games :(


I was just asking because I've heard the response isn't too great for this mouse in FPS games.

Something to keep in mind I suppose, thanks. If the response is so bad that my gameplay suffers from it then I'll either A) Have an excuse as to how terrible I am or, B) Have a reason to get a new mouse ;)

I had a cordless mouse for three days.

I hated it, so I got rid of it.

Why?

- Laggy
- Sleeps to quickly

I sold it & bought a logitech Dual Optical.

Been happy ever since.

Alright, I just closed my Goldbox without purchasing the mouse.

Figured I'd have more fun with a gamecube game then a cordless mouse anyway :D
