New mouse required, but not sure what to get

+1 for the Razer Deathadder.

I like wireless because I hate when cables snag, The mouse will be moving lots and sometimes quickly. Im looking for something as comfortable as the Mx1100 and possibility of wireless. the G700 comes close to this, but with all the added keys that may just get in the way. The x8 looks nice but im not sure how comfortable it is.

I also hate having cables running across the desk. I am finding the x8 perfectly comfortable, but it is not as heavily moulded as some models so may not be to everyones liking.
The x8's charging system is simple, the recharging cable attaches magnetically to the front of the mouse, so you can recharge while using. The charge cord is very light, so you will not feel it impeding you when you do charge.

I do like the charging idea of the x8 quite unique simple and elegant.

Luckily I took the razer apart to take a good look into it, I hadn't done anything to the hardware though. Upon putting it back together it seems to work just the occasional spazzi moments. But this gives me a bit more time to decide on what mouse to get as I've had to give the mx1100 back the the father so he can do some work.

Saitek RAT 7 man or the 9 if you love wireless

Would you guys pick the G500 over the G9x?

^^ this?

I have a RAT7, pretty decent mouse although found it wasn't keen on my Razor mouse mat. Make sure your mat is "laser" certified or whatever. Think it means slightly more reflective.

Anyway, good mouse, but doesn't feel as 'reliable' as my old logitech g5 - feels like it drags even though I'm using at 5600dpi.

Good mouse overall thought - only notice when playing competitively.

I've never seen or read reviews of the G9x.

Do yourself a favour, google them both and read some reviews Mice are very subjective and personal.

The more im looking at wireless mouse the more interesting the G700 seems to be, it has the same shape as the mx1100, which i find so comfortable but it also has 1000hz polling rate and it seems that the small movement issue has been fixed.

I do think the RAT 7 and 9 are nice yes, but im still wondering whether they are worth the added cost =/ the only true benefit is the ability to change dpi with that red button, but im sure if i set up setpoint correctly I may be able to do it with the g700.. hmmmmm
