I have about 80$ to spend on a new mouse. I will most like *not* be looking @ the G7. Seems to have a lot of issues, especially for people with big hands [like me]. So, should I buy the wired-G5 or the wireless MX1000?

MX1000: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16826104158

G5:

Thanks. If you have any other recommendations, please feel free to say.

You definitely want to go wireless.  I think if you go wired, you'll sorely regret it.

well it felt just right in my hand, it looks like buttons might get in the way but they dont because the way it's designed.

My friend has the MX1000. He says it works really well, but if you are going to be using a mouse for gaming, then you should go with the G5.

Will the wired part be an advantage? Because I've heard the WiFi mouses cause trouble @ LAN games.
