Went to bestbuys and they had the old deathadder on display. the mouse actually fits me better because i have small hands. I always have to sorta turn the g5 slightly to the left a bit on my hand so i can hold onto the thumb buttons (I use it to sprint in cod4). After years of using a mx500 shaped mouse, I've gotten use to doing that and never rested my hand on it like it was shaped to do. For the Deathadder, I can rest my hand on it and use both buttons easily and it just feels easier. I think I'm going to try it and see how I do. Thanks.
