Is RAT Series Mouse Really Good?
The RAT is a nice-looking mouse, but as for real functionality, it's lack luster.
- The mouse is biggish. Even though fully adjustable, but still big.
- The buttons are only a few, much less than other gaming mouses, and not designed for comfort.
- Many users report that the laser went dead after a few month.
- Many users report the software is lousy.
- Silly weights that adds $$$.

This is their new one. Beautiful.
- Wireless USB.

Not very good reviews on amazon. The DPI cannot be adjusted. The Bluetooth doesn't seems to work on the Mac.
