Sceptesizm of wireless nowadays is silly tbh, I've had this G7 for yonks and havent experienced one single glitch in hundreds, probably thousands of hours of various types of usage.

I think a lot of the distain for wireless gear comes from the fact that for a long time, 99% of wireless products were cheap tacky crap, sold on the fact that they're wireless and not due to quality.

As for BlueTrack, it looks pretty sweet. Mouse looks comfy and its about time tracking went versatile rather than just adding more useless dpi

I have always been skeptical of wireless. Always. But with the 360's wireless controllers not giving me a single issue in the years I have had it, I may have to give it a go.

Shame about the batteries needed though. That is my main issue.

wireless works fine, I've had a G7 for about 18 months now, works fine, BUT I did have to change my mousemat, had a steal one that buggered up the signal, so be warned.

Wireless keyboards on the other hand, had nowt but issues with them. BT ones are ok, but rf/ir are not worth it, imho.

i remember the first wireless optical mouse. So glitchy, but actually after few years and few updates installed - FIXED!!!
