All,


Need recommendation for new 5 button mouse. Users here have used Logitech


MX310's for years but they are beginning to fail and are no longer offered for sale


from Logitech. Otherwise, if anyone knows where we could purchase the MX310


that would also work.


Thanks

I really like mine, as I said I'm on my second one. The V3 I had before simply wore out on the bottom edge from the tilt-slide that Nathan was talking about. The V4 has a more robust design in this area, although it is showing signs of wear here too.

My wife had one for a time (a V2, I believe) and it really helped her carpel tunnel. I had some tennis elbow that I thought was mouse related and it seems to have helped that. It is odd at first, but it doesn't really take much time at all to get used to it.

I have no reservations recommending it.

I use the Logitech G9x. It is a gaming mouse, but it is awesome. Adjustable speed, 5-button, with a wheel that can tilt to make for more choices. It can be weighted. Not cheap, at around $80, but it is very nice.

Anyone have experience with the DXT mouse?

Remember long ago when you were using Wildfire 4 and you had to create an icon or button. I found it extremely difficult to draw a straight line of pixels. I assumed it was because I start my day with a pot of coffee and my shaking hands made drawing straight lines difficult but now I wonder if the mouse was to blame. Does that make sense? Would DPI settings on the mouse control that type of accuracy? If so, is the RAZER the best choice because you can select the accuracy (DPI)? My group has been using the Mx700 for many years with minimal problems on a couple of the batteries.

Thanks,
Eric
