new mAus?!

so i`m playing with the thought to buy a new mouse, actually i`m using a razor diamondback on a speedlink speedpad.
now my question: is there any compareable mouse with mine (sharp, dpi etc.) so i dont need to get used to it too much!
max. price should be around 50 bugs.
(but plz only mice compareable with my diamondback, i really like the shape its just perfect for my hand)
thx diph

why would you need a new one?
mouse thing is overrated.
cuz mine is pretty much rubbed down!

buying new db not allowed ?

nice playing with a razor
Buy the new Diamondback 3G, or just go for the old version again. There's no other mouse on the market shaped as the Diamondback.

You could check out the Razer Krait (max 1600 DPI I believe) though, which is a bit smaller than the DB. Other mice with symetrical shape would be Logitech's G1 (max 800 DPI) or Microsoft's 1.1 or WMO 1.1. (both max 400 DPI)
thx for the infos :)
did u tried the g1? is it that model which allows u to change the weights of the mouse? i pretty liked the shape of it but atm i`m playing with 1600dpi so i think going down to 800 will force me to change my beloved sens :)

That's the G1. It's a pretty simple mouse and you can't change anything at it (I'm not even sure if that driver trick works on it (400DPI without, 800DPI with drivers installed). I've tried it, but sold it a few days later, as it was way too flat for me.

I've tried so many different mice, mousepads or mouseskates http://www.urtier.info/mice.txt and I always went back to the IME 3.0 or later to the 1.1, using an Icemat or the Steelpad SX.

mx300 > g1, the logitech mx300 and g1 are both having software based 800dpi, the sensors are just 400dpi. For ET you don't need anything higher than 800dpi.
Parent
you look like someone who knows alot about mice :p what d you think of razer salmosa ? it's as good as the razer 3G ?
Parent
It seems to have the same engine as the Deathadder and DB 3G, which is by far the best sensor at the moment.

Now it's all about the shape. It seems to be pretty small and the buttons look quiet huge compared to the back part, seems to be an updated version of the Krait.

If you like the shape of it, it should be a good buy, since it pretty cheap with ~30€.

Still can't believe that Razer was basically dead 3 years ago and now they are a big player in the peripheral device market. :)

razers diamonback was the turning point i guess

at that time it was a great mouse

+ they found the hole in the market: a mouse for lefthanded peoples
Parent
50 bugs? :d

mx518 is still the best
might be, but it`s not nearly the diamondbackshape
Parent

ime 3.0 !!
i am very happy with my deathadder
You should definately buy teh Deathadder.
All I can say is my DB broke after not even 1/2 year, without any reason -> wtf??! so razer kinda sucks for me
(i'm not that kinda person that smashes a mouse down after fullspawn or something :p)
intelli mouse 1.1 optical
why dont you just buy the same again? (maybe just the 3g instead if the old one)
