hey i've got a krait..
and i dont think my krait is affected by the incoming mobile signal at all. It has never die on me in any way what-so-ever.
I've even try putting my hp on the table top above the mousepad, but it's working fine.

But one of the occurrence problem is that..sometimes the sensitivity may go haywire (eg: after exiting from a FPS game) it will just be super fast or slow or sometimes during tabbing out from the game.
But all of these will be working fine once i open the razer config page and just re-do the setting.
So, im guessing it's rather the software problem than the hardware.

Hmm.. That's odd. We noted this problem for quite some time, with different mobile phones. We just didn't realize it was the mobile phone until recently. We always thought it was buggy.

The mobile phone has to be quite close, within about 10 cm of the mouse. The phone won't kill the Krait unless the network searches for a nearby phone (which results in audio stuttering if you are playing something on your speakers), or if there's an incoming call.

Sometimes, the Krait "survives" the attack. But often it would just die, and we have to remove the mouse from the USB port and plug it back to restart it.

Hm..i've tried putting my mobile phone near to the mouse, infact, just beside the mouse and i called with the phone and receives call with the phone but i didnt notice any drop in cursor movement on screen.

So anyway, im not sure what happens since i've been using my Krait for more than half a year and it has never die in anyway at all.

But Kudos for the review!!! Keep more coming man..

Wait, what kind of phone are you using? CDMA or GSM?

No problem. Will have more coming up soon. Including new mice from OCZ!

Sorry to say but never liked the Krait personally as ergonomically, Razer's products never suited my hand well. I'm more of the Logitech sorta person since I have ape palms. And the response compared to even an MX510 is not as good as I expected it to be. But for beginner gamers and those more to RTS gaming, it's a good start

oh..im using a GSM phone. so that might be the problem?
