Would be what I'd get.

It's gotta be said, for me that, 'lip', (that was on the MX1000), on the thumbside was REALLY helpful. It allowed me to control the mouse with the palm of my hand and the thumb, (of course), but BECAUSE of that lip and the subsequent thumb control, I was able to move the mouse in softer, more subtle ways than if I only had the use of the palm of my hand. I loved my MX1000 I had before, and it was awesome. To be honest, how I'm getting by with the G9 I'll never know, but I am, and I'm actually ENJOYING it; bizarre. I MAY get the, lipped', Logitech Performance MX Mouse some day if I ever get fed up with the G9, but until then I'm sticking with it. Now if only they made a G9 with a nice big fat lip like that on the MX1000. :p :D

The thing with mice is that you need to hold them before you buy so you get an idea what it mght feel like as you're using it, problem is, 99% of the time you can't do that, (unless they have the tethered replica mice on show for you to get a grasp of in the pc hardware showroom). My advice would be to look back at mice you have used in the past and then to decide if the features of the potential new mouse are going to be more of a benefit to you or a handicap.


Always weigh up the pros n cons before making a decision. :)

Oh, I wasn't offered the MX Revolution, it was the one linked above ^^ - makes sense now.... since the Anywhere MX and the Performance MX are 2 of the best wireless mice Logitech offer, which is similar to the G7 I was replacing.

I've had the older version of the MX revolution and loved it so I think the new one might be the right option..

How did you get them to give you that when the warranty's expired?

They just offered me that as good will :D Logitech are very good at looking after their customers I have found..
 
it still only has one? I would have thought theyd have gone to rev 2 like the g5, but meh.

More buttons does indeed = better imo too, just ive heard such good things about the g7, and some bad things about the revo. Not actually used either, since i dont use wireless except on my media center rig.
 
Just a quick update, order the Logitech Performance MX Mouse with Darkfield Technology which ended up costing me £44.99 delivered :D

I got another 35% off voucher as they sent me the wrong feet for me old MX1000, this was all free of course but as they got it wrong they gave me another 35% off code for my next purchase....

They certainly know how to win customers and business!
 
i used to use logitech exclusivly for periphierals.

but i've since moved onto Razer, Originally just mice, as i found logitech mice to be very uncomforatable for me
 
I've got 3 different wireless logitech mice, the battery life on the ones that take AAA batteries is fine - change once every 4-6 months but they feel a bit heavier. I prefer the heft. I find large, shaped mice uncomfortable so never got on with the Revolution. I like the Nano, find it comfortable.
 
Used the Performance Mouse MX for 3 days and its up for sale....

Too big for me. Made my hand ache due to having to curve over the larger bulk of it compared to a smaller mouse. I've got average size hands.

Apart from the size issue it is a superb piece of kit but probably suited to those with large hands

Will try the smaller Anywhere Mouse MX
