blackadder? You mean deathadder? I know they have blackwidow which is a keyboard iirc. And the logitech is shaped like a palm grip mouse with all the ergonomic curves imo . . .
The Kova+ is 1000 Hz although i believe its a 800 DPI mouse capable of up to 3200 but best use at 800.

Anyways i prefer small house with ambidextrous shape because of the way i grip them:

Now since i love the Microsoft optical mouse size wight and shape + precision but wouldnt mind having more buttons :P
im in the same boat as this guy:

+ this thing is unkillable:

If it had 1 or 2 more buttons i wouldnt replace it as it looks like itl last at least 10 more years lol

I have one of those I used as my backup mouse when I had a wireless mouse. It was free and I'm glad I didn't pay for it because it really is a low quality mouse. The buttons are really flimsy and It's subject to that old Microsoft mouse bug where the cursor will occasionally wig out and shoot straight for a random corner of the screen. It's not fun when it does that in games. I really don't know why you'd use one of those on purpose.

I know i was interested but that model is hard to find in Canada and similar, actually most Zowie product available are often backordered . . .

Mine has been very precise in games and the only time it acts crazy is when a hair is stuck in the optical sensor.
Never had that microsoft bug you mentioned and that thing has so much wear that the pad under it were gones years ago and its sliding on bare plastic. Its been carried through many moves, dropped, survived 4 ferrets and my daughter and it still work the same as when i got it (2005 i think lol) and the button clicks fine and mousewheel urn well . . .
Maybe i got a special model although its 1.0A so unless mine is built with tank parts i dunno how to explain it :P

It's possible it's a newer version as I can't find a version number on the bottom of mine. It just says "basic optical mouse." I can't remember when I got this one.

I think ill go with the Kova+, i wouldve gotten the Zowie FK but the only place i found it that wasnt sold out in Canada was 130 $ + shippin so yeah . . .
Kova + at 800 DPI for games will be perfect and probably set 1600 for desktop use or something i guess.

That's probably plenty if you like a slower mouse speed. My G400s will do 4000 dpi and so far I've kept it at 800. It does just fine for me.
