MX510 or MX1000 Poll

I need to buy a new mouse, and while cost is a factor, comfort/reliability is more important.

I will be using it for general use, photo editing, and gaming (in that order). I've been using an MS Intellimouse for the past 3 years, so the cord doesn't really bother me.

Thanks for any advice.
 
I bought the MX1000. Weight feels fine to me, but I'm already used to a heavier mouse. I wouldn't want to part with it now.

Thanks for the response.. I guess I'll drop by a Staples or OD store and try out the mice and see how heavy the MX1000 is.


Just make sure you think about the weight when the batteries are in it. I tested a few wireless mice out at my local best buy and remember thinking they felt lighter than I originally thought... Then I realized why...
 
No brainer go for MX510,the MX1000 is not a bad mouse being it`s the best cordless mouse ,however it`s heavy and battery dependent.
 
I love the MX510 I got. The resolution is great. regedit and crank that mouse multipler from 0 to 2. I don't have the deskspace for a huge mousepad, so fast movement on screen with little movement out the mouse is a big plus.
 
hmm I came from the MX700 to the MX1000, and the MX1000 is MUCH better. MX700 is heavy as hell, MX1000 was light in comparison. Never really used the MX510 though. I like the erogonomics of the MX1000 MUCH better than the MX510/700.

But since the cord doesn't bother you, why waste money on wireless? I'd get the MX510 hands down.
 
The Mx1000 is just too expensive...I just got the mx510 in today from the Egg $34 + $10 MIR and it's amazing 100x better than my msft intelli mouse
 
I got the MX510 for $30 after deals, which is pretty reasonable. Now I just need to wait 3-5 business days for it to be shipped and I'll be set.

The only thing left to get is a nice shiny new computer to match but that's another thread lol.
