..Humm,
"Deathadder from KMD at 2.6k" sounds good as well..
I was thinking of the MX518 as well over the IE3.0 I like MX518 size better...
mouse pad is everglide fnatik any issues?
i have tried the mx518 (both old and new) and the MSIE1.0 all on QCK cloth pads
cant really tell any difference between the old and new mx518
the MSIE has good grip and bad side buttons...though i feel that since i was used to the mx518...given more time i could adapt to the MSIE too
in the end mice depends on user preference...they all have good sensors
too bad that in india you cant try out the mice before buying them....though some stores have logitech mice in displays which you can hold to see if you like the grip
Refurbishment is just minor repair at most, right. And that too, done by Razor. I don't know anything about their life expectancy, never used one. I have an MX518 (and it's pretty good). Just thought I'd point out what looked like a great deal.
