For a few days, I've been avidly researching for the perfect mouse (b'day present, so anything reasonably priced). In my search for perfection, it's come down to three choices:
Usually, the G5 would not be in such a comparison, but the price is so similar that it deserves to be in the mix.
The issue here is that I have two traits that don't mix very well -- i'm a fingertip gamer, and i have small hands (i can span from ~ to - on a standard board).
I'm leaning against the G5, because of the missing thumb button and tilting wheel (which i dislike).
The diamondback seems to be a small mouse, but the side button position seems to not be great, as well as having super-sensative buttons. The MX518 looks like a great mouse, but I'm afraid it will be too large.
Right now, i use a IBM OEM mouse, but if anyone could take pictures comparing any of these mice to a Intellimouse 3.0 (I have one), that would be great. In hawaii, there aren't any stores for trying them out.
I tried a MX600 today, and it's the perfect size; comparisons to it would also be nice
Thanks,
