Do a search on the forum buddy as this has been asked a few time`s already,only reason i say this is you may not get many reply`s.

BTW G7

Get the MX518. You'll even have change for a few pints down at the Uni bar

If it doesn't have to be wireless, get the new G5 with 2 thumb buttons, if you look you can find it for about £44(I dont think i can get in trouble for pricing something OcUK don't sell). I had the old G5 and this is the best mouse i've ever used.

not having a mouse & yusing tab meant surfing the net was a bit hard, id usually search but i was having a few problems =) Well i went ahead and followed the 1st comment and ordered a revolution, ocuk and my other retailer didnt have the g7 in stock, i was use to an mx500 so hopefully its not too different and i like it.
It wound up at about £62 next day delivery so its not too bad. Dont think order has been posted yet so if theres any big pros of a g7 over the revolution please tell me ASAP

I love my G7, no wires to get in the way and battery swapping so it's always got power.

Iv got plenty of change to put behind the bar already

Cancelled the revolution order as i realised the g7 was probably going to be better for me, hot swappable batterypack, higher DPI, on the fly sensitivity changing. Plus its the same style as my current mx500, disappointed in only 1 thumb button though, step backwards in design from my mx500 which iv had for god knows how long.
It wants to hurry up and get delivered though, iv got a hell of a lot of work i need to do and i dont want to go n spend a few quid on a mouse, i might go have a look in the poundshop see if theyv got sumthing!
OOPS, named a competitor

haha
