A better mousetrap is needed

[seryn]

Logitech is going to be selling an ambidextrous gaming mouse, the G300. It's corded. They have a wireless gaming mouse, the G700 but it's right-handed only. They have some decent ambidextrous wireless mice, but they have no programmable buttons and use batteries (it's unclear whether one must recharge the batteries or whether the 15-18 months life expectancy is without recharging; I might be able to tolerate buying a pair of AA batteries every year if it isn't intermittently inconvenient due to needing a charging cord as well, but that seems pretty unlikely in a $20 item when they can't manage that kind of battery life on a $50,000 car. Last time I had a wireless mouse, the batteries weren't rechargeable and needed changing every 3-4 weeks. It was incredibly expensive and didn't work very well about half the time while I was trying to eke out the last drop of power.)

I like the M570 trackball even though it's right only. I dislike the ambidextrous trackballs and no one makes lefty ones (I really don't understand it since I prefer to mouse on the left despite being a righty, obviously everyone would prefer that if they just tried it.)

I'm really less than whelmed. That's how I ended up buying a Razer mouse last time, because Logitech keeps missing the only boat I'm willing to sail.
