Gaming Mouse

Serious gamers need a mouse with many buttons, good ergonomics and most of all, great looks. The R2 mouse from gamingmouse.com may fit the bill. This attractive mouse has four buttons on the top and three buttons under the neoprene rubber grip along the sides. A configuration utility is included that enables users to set all the buttons to different functions in almost any program. A command can also be executed when the user lifts the mouse from the mousepad.

The bottom of the mouse is very smooth and the three screws holding the base are polished stainless steel. According to company officials, the optical sensor is rated at 1600 dpi. After playing with the mouse for a few minutes, we were impressed by its smooth surface tracking and accuracy.

Gamers will appreciate the customizability of the mouse: the buttons, mouse top and neoprene grip along the sides can all be personalized upon order. The mouse is currently available for $49.95.
