So my trusty old n52 seems to be on its way out, cant complain its lasted a very long time & done everything I asked of it, I know razer bought the nostromo rights off belkin & are now calling it tartarus, & the only other item that looks pretty close is the g13.

I have some reservations about these two:

Friend of mine is a much lighter user than me & has had his razer items break pretty quickly, also it seems you have to install some software called synapse or you cant edit the key functions, this synapse has been called spyware (by others I have no experience) as it tracks all your gaming habits. It is also said to feel cheap & plastic.

The g13 however has also had a few complaints about reliability with the buttons round the thumbstick packing up.

Also wondering if you can change/remove the wrist rests on both of them, first thing I did was take the rest off my nostromo as it was much more comfortable without it.

So anyone had much experience with these or knows a good alternative?

Thanks.
