The keyboard is really sweet (The F buttons work without having to "Lock" them which is a nice change for this sort of keyboard) and has a lot of useful features.


The mouse is awesome - it's really well built and feels great in your hand. It's quite heavy and the speed of mouse pointer movement is a bit weird at first but you soon get used to it.

The hotkey program is small and uses up hardly any resources too.

I got a Logitech MX1000, and I love it. Wouldn't go back to my 518 or whatever it was. It's comfortable, the battery lasts a really long time, and it's really good for twitch-FPS.. like CS:S or HL2 b/c of how sensitive the laser is at tracking.

I'm just waiting for the new line to come out or to hear something about them.

WTF?

I have a MX1000 and it Sucks balls for FPS twitch, the stupid thing still tracks when you lift the mouse off the desk, also it just dosent feel as good for FPS as my old Optical logitech mice, It Feels skittish and unsure. Plus if u forget to recharge the battery it always runs out at the most inappropriate time.
This mouse if Fine for browsing the web and playing eve, if your Well into your FPS, id steer clear of the Laser mice.

IMHO Its Way overpriced to and not worth the money, save your bucks and buy a regular NON Cordless optical

I've had a MX1000 laser for a while now. I think it rocks. Accurate, big, and superb response for a wireless. And I play FPS just fine with em, Would say though that if that's your main objective get a razer.

I love my red MX510...this seems to be an incredibly successful model. I'd spring for a G5 Laser mouse, but they're not selling it, only the G7, which is cordless, and I would never buy a cordless mouse. And to be honest, $80 for a 2000 dpi laser mouse doesn't actually make a lot of sense, considering that I'm not a hardcore FPS gamer (although I really should be, I just never got into it somehow...)

My only complaint about the MX510 is that the tiny little "feet" or whatever you call them don't seem to work too well, one of them is already coming off, and the others are actually getting worn down...anybody know what to do about this? Or should I just give the slipping one a tiny bit of epoxy, stick it back on, and ignore it?

If you're talking about the MX1000, it's a nice precise mouse, however I find it very heavy for gaming use.

The Razer Diamonback on the other hand is one of the best mice I've ever owned.

Razer is great too. But it's a bit of a taste thing as well. I like my mice nice and heavy. And I have no problems with it even during the really long gaming sessions. But if you're not used to it. It can get quite painful.

Forgot too mention. The battery of the MX1000 rocks. Nice li-ion, and fast recharge. And it's doubtful that it will ever run out in one sitting. Although it does a have problem with the battery state lights. I've had 2 and the lights stopped working on both after a couple of weeks.

2000 dpi!


I use a Razer Diamondback, though, 1600 dpi. It has a very different shape, though, which takes a while to get used to, especially since it feels as if the mouse pointer is "slipping around" the screen. Once you're used to it, though, it's beauiful.
