I know those of us who have a G15 keyboard love it like it was almost a member of the family. But if you're like me your always looking at the next gadget longingly. Right now I am considering two different items. I figured I'd post my scattered thoughts and see if anyone else had input (or had more hardware porn to make us drool).
1. The WoW branded mouse. I openly mocked this when it first came out. But then I got 50 dollars in game stop gift certificates. And buying a game there just doesn't work for me. The games I want are steam games so it's pointless. And while browsing in an attempt to find something I found this mouse again. And it's been in the back of my head for like 6 weeks now. I'm just not sure it will improve my game.
2. The Belkin n52. (n52te linked). I've been looking at these for years. They talk about them in the syndicate Rogue forums with reverence and it is almost assumed that to win Arenas you have to have one. With the new version that is better built and cheaper I've begun to look at the other grass and wonder if it's truly greener. The fact that the programing interface is a nightmare is something to consider. But for WoW I do all my macro'ing in game and jsut set the "extra" keys for these kinds of things to obscure key combo's like ALT_SHIFT_CTRL_0 and then use domino's with every conceivable bar turned on. But would this really be faster for me that the G15 already is? If the G15 dies and I have to go to the new G19 that's one more reason for something like this.
