I have the wireless mighty mouse and I kinda regret it, it's nice for normal work, but the i noticed a few issues with it.

it's too flat flat for me
you can't right click with your left finger on the left button
the mouse ball is too sensitive with games using the mouse wheel

Then get the Logitech MX1000 or 1100.

Speedtouch · September 8th, 2008, 07:14 PM

MX1000 FTMFW. I couldn't live without it.

Vette Boss · September 8th, 2008, 07:38 PM

I have yet to find a mouse truly superior to the MX1000. It would be perfect, except the charger design and battery are a bit crap.

I like the MX1000 and been using it since it came out, but the battery is a little more than crap. On full charge, the MX lasts 3-4 days at most, whereas my Logitech keyboard goes months on a full charge.

What's wrong with the MX Revolution? Not as good? Whenever I scroll through long documents and webpages, I get pissed off with the old style scroll wheel and the noise it makes on the MX1000.

IceBone · September 9th, 2008, 01:34 AM

I love the MX Revolution. Not going back to the MX1000. When this one craps out, I'm replacing it with the exact same one (if there are still any around).

Just received this puppy in the mail:

A folding bluetooth keyboard for my phone!

Not only is it making this post a lot easier to type out, but it lets me copy & paste in the phone's web browser, allowing me to post the photo I took to Imageshack much more easily.

Also, the Wall-E game kicks ass (and was a great selling point to the wife. I have to pry the controllers from her hands now)

I think you will enjoy GT3 much more than GT4, except for the best track ever on a Grand Turismo series: Nürburgring race track.

Much more opinion, but should have saved the $150.00 towards a PS3... but that's my opinion.

Also your completely missing out on the awe of GT5: Prologue. Ooo, changing load video..... looky!

Are you crazy ? GT4 is ten times better than GT3 !

NooDle · September 9th, 2008, 09:39 AM

I know that GT5 is awesome, I'm just not that hardcore gamer dude that does 24 hr races etc. I just want to have some fun races with friends on the Nurburgring. GT4 was basically the reason for getting a PS2 in the first place.

Besides, I don't need a Bluray player (yet) and if I were to get a PS3, I would want GT5 (full) to be included for my 500€. Which it isnt.... (besides, a PS2 is 129€ here, quite a difference from 500€)

so GT4 it is!

*is so happy despite buying old stuff everyone already has*

killpanda · September 9th, 2008, 09:41 AM

I still play GT4, even though I got a PS3 and GT5 Prologue, it's the best game in the whole universe
