I believe this mouse represents the pinacle of design/function that logitech has produced in the past 7 years. It has made it through first person shooters, mmos, rts, and years of design and cad work.
The design of the mouse is perfect for my hand, though a bigger person might take issue with this mouse slight smaller than standard frame. The curves are in the right place so my thumb and pointer fall on the corresponding buttons. The usb cable is high quality and mesh wrapped to prevent getting knotted or tangled, and is long enough to place this mouse anywhere on your desk. The slide surfaces on the bottom keep it moving smooth and are easy to wipe off if any dirt build up. The laser still works like new and I have never had to blow out or clean.
The surface of the mouse is coated with a texture that looks great and provides a good grip. The center scroll wheel is smooth but still easy to scroll and the spring is strong to provide tactile feedback when pressed down. There is only two side buttons on this mouse so if you are looking for a keyboard on your mouse go with a naga. I do feel the button placement is pretty tight so you can at times hit both.
The features of this mouse by todays standards are nothing fancy by todays standards. You can adjust dpi on the fly with the dpi buttons, the highest being the setting I tend to use for most games, sometimes dropping it down to medium for online fps play. The adjustable weight is a good concept, though I cannot say it makes a drastic difference as the mouse slides smooth enough where it dose not feel like much either way.
the option to have it is a nice touch and ads to the quality of this mouse. I think if you can still find it for a good price (hard to do in 2013) it is well worth the investment, even compared to newer models by logitech and razor.

Most durable peripheral I have ever used.
Purchased in 2007 when this thing came out.Almost 12 years now of daily use. And I mean daily. And I am not kind to this thing.Worn down anti-friction pads? Still slippery.Laser? Works fine.Buttons? No failures ever.Scroll wheel? Aside from occasionally needing to clean the slots in the wheel out every few years because I come home from work with greasy hands - still flawless.Texture on top? Perfect.Repeatability? Not amazing, I will admit, but part of this might be mouse settings in windows if I recall correctly.Ergonomics? Would be great if I could stop myself from curling up my ring and pinkie fingers and rest the ring finger on the frame next to the right button (this solves my cramped fingers, but I am dumb as a box of rocks and keep doing it) - why don't more designs include this solid frame? Why must computer mice insist on having buttons that go all the way to the edge? Wack.At the time this thing was the bees knees. Modern mice are much better.Can I get this with slightly better ergo, the same texturing on top, and modern guts? I will be doing my homework but after 12 years its still not up for retirement yet.
