More specific anyone use this and IS boxer? If so how well do the two play together?
I had been wondering this as well. I dunno how the brodcasting would work, and not really interested in the expensive of a mouse if ti doesnt. I already have a brand new copperhead from razor.
I'm utilizing the naga with ISBoxer, it broadcasts exactly like your 1-= keys or your Num0-9 + and - keys... since thats what it is.
When the NewIS2BasedApp releases you will be able to map these keys separately so you can have your numberpad and naga do different actions!
hells ya! when they release that new software i'm gonna be all over this thing, i love extra keys!
I will be buying one myself :)
Best news ever!!! Cannot wait for this!!!Quote:

If you're considering buying one of these things, go find one first and put your hand on it. The last row of the "number pad" - I had to basically take my hand off the mouse to use it.
I've never had a Razer product that didn't fall apart early on. Except the free hat they sent me the third time I had to RMA the same model of mouse because of out-of-box defects.
I'm using a SteelSeries Ikari Laser. And have been for a long time now. It's awesome. The rubberized surface wears a bit and after a few years the scroll wheel gets stained and the logo gets faded. But it's by far the most comfortable and durable mouse I've ever used. And the thumb buttons weren't placed by a moron that had never seen a human hand before. Some of their other stuff (*cough*wowmouse*) is not as good, but the Ikari Laser...nice. I think I still have a spare NIB from when they were on sale for $25...maybe in a few years when this one finally wears out, I'll try to figure out where I stashed it.
My first impression was that the mouse was a touch small, however after about a week I love it. I can easily and accurately hit any of teh 12 keys on the side, along with all 5 of the normal buttons.Quote:

Another thing to note: You cannot remap the buttons on this mouse. There is a switch on the bottom that changes it between being the top row (1-=) or being the numbpad. So basically you either have to remap your toon's actions to the numbpad?! or just give up on this mouse.
Size feels a little small, but I didn't think it was too bad.
I own this mouse.
Pros: I have my follow, assist, and instants tied to it. That way i can thow my instants as I strafe circles around my target. They give you little tabs to place on the keys to train with, but after a while you don't need them. Once your thumb gets used to actually doing some work it's easy/peasy. I've actually considered putting my movement keys on my mouse, including strafe. This way I have complete control of my movement in my right hand.
Cons: Limited binding capability (new software on the way though). Not cordless! Notchy scroll wheel. It is small if you have Cyclops hands... but hey, I do have big shoes :P
This is an excellent mouse and certainly worth the $79 dollars if you don't mind changing your play style.
I just want to add that unlike Yaki, I've never had an issue with any Razer product I've owned. Of the four people in my house that play WoW or other MMO's (Myself and my 3 sons) there are x4 Tarantulas, x4 n52's (Belkin product, Razer software), x1 Mamba, x3 Nagas, and my dad and daughter are using our hand-me-down/up Razer mice (a couple of Lachesis'). Not one return. I've retired perfectly good Razer mice just to upgrade. And yes, I feel like I keep them in business.
Can you expand on this a bit more? What are they adding? Got a link with more information?Quote:

EDIT: Is this what you were referring too?

If you spend time using the trainer tabs, you can become quite adept at navigating the 12 buttons. Also, once the tabs are removed youl'll find that the 4,5,6, 10,11,12 keys have a different feel to them... an extra little ridge like the F and J keys on home row.
