Damn...just when I got my...

Intellimouse 3.0 is still my favourite mouse, perfect ergonomics, not stupid side scrolling, just proper, functional, 5 buttons, flawless mouse drivers. Sigh...bad timing...didn't expect MS to go backwards!

Adjustable weight is one of the most pathetic feature of G5/7 IMO. I didn't even bother to use/try them. All the MX500 designs suffer from pretty serious ergonomic flaws, which is why I don't fancy Logitech mice. The thumb area doesn't feel right at all, and you are forced to put 3 fingers on the button area.

And before you question me, yes, I'm a G5 user. If it wasn't for the 2000dpi, I wouldn't even consider it.

Wah the microsoft mouse is actually powered by razor

The adjustable weight in the G5 is pretty irritating according to a guy i know who's used it. He said the sockets that holds the weight are pretty loose and you can actually hear *clack clack* sounds when you move your mouse lol.
