Guys

I recent bought a logitech diNovo Keyboard for Notebooks and it is great, extremely comfortable or even pleasure to type... (my previous keyboard is Saitek Eclipse II)

I am currently using a Razer DeathAdder and Kensington Expert trackball. Both mouses are great but lacking comfort...

so... any suggestion.... price is not a big issue

My favorite mouse Bar None:
Logitech MX518

Honestly, I really do wish that there was something better overall.
The Steelseries Ikari Looks like the next best thing, But I have not been able to get my hand on it yet.

I was thinking a wireless mouse would offer the best comfort... may be the Logitech MX Revolution or a Microsoft Ergonomic range....

but keep it coming...

I had a Microsoft wireless mouse + kb combo for a while, and although i didn't liek the wireless part, the mose was pretty damned comfortable. Unfortunatly I dun remember which model, but it was rather wide and had the second scroll wheel.

For teh past few years I've been using a Razer Copperhead and I've always felt it comfortable for long periods. I prefer high sensitivity and control the ouse with my fingertips and barely touch the mosue with my palm.. I like the low profile.

Mouse comfort is very subjective. I'd just go to a big store and try some out. If need be, buy one (or a few) and test them out for a day or so. But really, i find most nice fairly comfy.

Happy hunting.

I recommend the 518 as well. Big. Comfy for non-gaming as well.

I've also had the MX1000 any of those seem great. Revolution is suppose to be a great mouse...pricey IMHO.

MX Revolution is very good. Has a gazillion buttons to boot and if you set it up right you won't get any of this so called lag from the wireless functionality.

It looks sexy too...makes you wanna touch it...and double click it.

I hate my MX Revolution. Horrible mouse IMO. :(

Logitech G5 is awesome. G7 if you want something without a tail.

or the VX Nano for a super-portable mouse. I really like mine. :)

Paradigm, what do you find so bad about it?

I bought mine refurbished in the summer of 2007. And its starting to think that I'm double clicking when I am in fact, not double clicking. Apparantly thats a common issue with the MX Revolution when they get old.

I got another one on Black Friday from dell.com for $40 including shipping.

I'm not a huge twitch gamer so even if there is some input lag I don't notice it at all. And programming all of those buttons for games? Nothing better, Crysis and COD4 specifically come to mind when I think about using every single button on the mouse.
