    Adjustments are all nice and good, but if it makes a mouse look like that, I much rather pass.

    Also why bother with the adjustments when you can simply pick a mouse that fits your hand as-is?

    Bottom line: meh.

    I'm obviously too old. I didn't know that BMW made mice. Then again, I didn't think you could get a mouse with more than 4 buttons on it.

    They don't make cases, either. Tt has just paid enough to use the "Designed by BMW"-malarkey on the name of these products.

    Oh! Thanks Jipa. That's a relief - just me being stupid then.

    Aye, I'm surprised I like it, but for some reason I am drawn to the design of it. Each to their own!

    I have a Cyborg R.A.T mouse and find the adjustments quite useful, although it is only the length and weight adjustments that seem to make any noticeable difference. although the optional rubberised sections are a nice touch.

    At some point though you really are just paying for extra features which have no tangible benefits except for bragging rights, I mean what real difference will adjusting the angle of your palm rest really make and the same goes for the R.A.T's pinky rest malarky.

    On another note that's about the ugliest mouse I've ever seen

    I'd almost call it cyberpunk. Not the sort of design that appeals to me, too many places for grime to accumulate. I can see how it looks fun to some though, and it has a robust look. I wonder whether it is as strong as it looks or if it's just chunky.

    Adjustable means something when you can't find a mouse big enough. I'm tired of hand cramps after using a mouse for an hour or so.

    It looks pretty good. Very scifi. Better than the plastic Thermaltake 10gt case or whatever it's called.

    Is that a slab of metal with a slab of plastic and some red LED's ontop?

    It's interesting. I like how the angle itself is properly adjustable. I'll withhold judgement until my local electronics store gets some in stock that I can demo.
