That color changing thing is for retards who want a blinking mouse (the light on mine comes out on the backside and I can never see it, just the way it's supposed to be). The "indestructible ceramic feet" are ridiculous because usually it doesn't slow you down because they wear off but because they get clogged. I have to remove big pieces of compressed dust every so often from my regular mouse and I can't see special ceramics do anything about that problem. My next question would be: Who's got a desk to fit a mousepad like that? I maybe could but then I would have to at least move my printer and my laptop out of the way. No thanks. I'm fine with wood grain veneer and my old optical mouse (next one with cable again because charging the batteries pisses me off).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[meist3r]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2008 10:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nova explodes your brain with the Slider X 600 gaming mouse and OVER Slide pad]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/26/nova-explodes-your-brain-with-the-slider-x-600-gaming-mouse-and/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/26/nova-explodes-your-brain-with-the-slider-x-600-gaming-mouse-and/</guid><description><![CDATA[You think $99 mouse with $39 pad will make you pwn everyone in multiplayer games?

Or had it push back as you try to push forward? Or had the cable wear out over time because the cord wasn't long enough and as you pull back it tries to yank the cord out of the top? Think about it, the side makes sense. When I saw that I was wondering where I could get a mouse with a side cable (preferably not this one since it looks uncomfortable and I can't see the location of the back/forward buttons).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[brandon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 26th 2008 11:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Nova explodes your brain with the Slider X 600 gaming mouse and OVER Slide pad]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/26/nova-explodes-your-brain-with-the-slider-x-600-gaming-mouse-and/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/09/26/nova-explodes-your-brain-with-the-slider-x-600-gaming-mouse-and/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah, it's perfect.

Just got one of these mice and i love it, the wire's low enough and far enough back that i can still put my pinky on the mat without it touching the wire and it's just so comfortable to use.  The wire coming out of the side is a great innovation, not annoying at all and it hasn't snagged once in 12 hours of play.  The ceramic feet are sort off dome shaped and I can't see how any build up could get caught on them, but time will tell :)  All in all it's a load of money, but much more comfy and just as responsive as my razer gear - well worth it!!!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sflyer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2008 6:53AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
