A few things:
1) I strongly suggest against installing software to get a mouse to work. Mice have a buttons, MOUSE1, MOUSE2, MOUSE(N), and can be bound to functions within WoW without using crappy manufacturer software. No need to re-bind what the buttons do. Logitech. Setpoint. Sucks!
2) While you almost always get what you pay for, there's a happy medium when buying mice, keyboards, etc. Look at the SteelSeries WoW MMO Mouse -- it sucks! Same price, same results. With the SteelSeries mouse, you're paying a premium because a) it's branded as a WoW mouse and b) *someone* (steelseries, blizzard, whoever) spent time and labor creating an in-game interface to be able to bind macros to the buttons. I'm glad as hell they didn't have the mouse available at Gamestop on WoTLK release night, because I would have wasted the money to support the game we all play and love -- World of Warcraft.
3) Just as a shameless plug and first-hand user review, I've used the Logitech G5 (chucked the CD that came with it in the trash) for the past few years and it's been the most awesome mouse ever. Half the price of the mouse you're having trouble with and flawless performance. Again, the CD never left the paper sleeve when I bought my G5. Straight to the trizzash!
4) I also bought the n52te (after seeing Ellay's video) and I just can't get myself to use it! I'm afraid of pressing the wrong buttons while practicing in a battleground and my team saying "YOU SUCK AT BOXXING QQQQQQQ!@@#!" when I know I can do well with the keyboard I've used since I started! I just need to spend a day or two playing a solo character, and I'm sure I'll get the hang of it.
