Aside from the aesthetic change and smaller chassis, I'm unsure if there's anything in here considered an upgrade. I see some big changes, such as the removal of the laser for an optical sensor instead, slightly fewer buttons, a smaller chassis and the admittedly nice Thunderfury motif.
World of Warcraft Legendary Edition Mouse - Coming soon, this seems to be the little brother to the aforementioned Cataclysm edition. If anyone has used it, please let me know what you think about this software? Is it truly stand alone, or does it interface with WoW itself? Also, how well does it work on OTHER games - can you bring down multiple bindings on other profiles for say, a FPS or another MMO like Rift? If not, does it at least serve as a "basic" mouse without any issue when not in WoW? Apparently, a FAQ states that SteelSeries WoW mice are the only ones that have a special configuration option in game as well, so this may be an advantage.Ģ.

I've not always been happy with Razer drivers and software, which seems cumbersome and often more style than substance. I have an Orochi mouse to compliment my laptop and it works well and seems to be the best available in its class. Next I moved onto appraising Razer, of which I have a middling opinion. I also looked any many of the smaller brands like Roccat but it seems that their feature sets and specs don't seem to justify the price they command.
On the plus side, Logitech mice work great without special drivers/software, and SetPoint isn't intrusive. My first idea was to head back to Logitech and consider the G500 and G9x, and while the G500 may be a great "fallback" the G9x seems like its getting a little long in the tooth.
