Razer Boomslang any one?

I just found the 2007 limited for £34.99. My Salmosa is utter rubbish but then it was quite cheap I suppose. Boomslang is titanium with all kinds of stuff. Free T shirt too.

Any one used one? Has to better than this cack Salmosa.

My mate uses it and he loves it. I dont think you can go bad with Razer mouses. I personaly use left handed deathadder and absolutely love it.

The Salmosa is pretty terrible tbh. I've had it about 18 months and the skid feet are totally worn through. Wouldn't be that bad but they charge 1/3 what I paid for it to replace them. It squeaks SUPER loudly and looks in worse shape than a HP USB mouse I have had since 2000.

I was pretty skeptical about going with Razer again after that but £35 for a brand new Boomslang with a Tshirt is dirt cheap and it is their flagship product. The Salmosa was always going to be a bargain bin special so I hope with price the quality picks up (it had a RRP of £99).

Plus I used to sit and dream over the original Boomslang. At the time I was absolutely broke (green card battle for 5 years) and always wanted one.

Oh and expect a full review soon

I also have a M$/Razer Reclusa sitting brand new in the box (£17 del one day on Play.com) so I am going to be swapping that out with my Alienware Tactx board for a bit (rebadged logitech with cool lighting).

I may well review all three things
