?

Umm, yeah that's like all in German or something...what's teh difference between the Logitech MX500 and the Logitech MX518?? Is there any price difference, because i was planning on buying the Logitech MX500.

thegreek · Feb 16, 2005

You obviously never heard of the MX518. Its Logitech new gaming mouse which will compare to a razor.

/me wonders if there is a weight in it.....

If I see one for cheap I will pick it up.

i alredy got my mx510, too late now...

subtotal · Feb 16, 2005

ditto, but i can't help but woder if i had waited for this to come out woulld it have pushed down the price of the mx510? oh well i got mine for 2/3 RRP

Chixofnix · Feb 17, 2005

this excites me... i've been procrastinating about getting a 510 for so looong... now i have an excuse for why ^^

any news of a north american release of this puppy? i'm not up for a long babelfish reading atm -_-

Hard to tell but it looks like an ambidextrous design. Too bad it didn’t come out a few weeks ago. I would have gotten it and given it a try while I was in the market. All the current right handed Logitech’s and the 310 were uncomfortable for me.

It looks really nice, but for me I think its a waste of money upgrading to it from my MX500 thats 2 years old and still working perfectly,
does this one have a real laser like MX1000 or normal diode?

Nah, it's still for right handed people, you can see the thumb buttons are only on the left side.

It's basicly a Mx1000 with a cord

And I'm getting one when they are available if the price is reasonable. If the price is high, my MX510 will be used with no complaints. :clap:

Seems to be much like the razor diamondback, which has been out for a good few months now. It is 1600 dpi and has on the fly sensitivty adjustment. If it is any good I will go and pick one up.

Aslan · Feb 17, 2005

Looks pretty nice. I'll probably get it later when it becomes cheap as well. Hopefully Future Shop will get a good deal on a large quantity of these and sell them cheap like they did with the MX510.

I heard of this a while back and I wanna get one.

Now I have a reason to get this over my MX700. Although I would miss wireless. I wonder if this will have the stalling when you pick the moust up like the 1000 does.

techun · Feb 17, 2005

what's this stalling thing?

i use an mx1000

some people have noticed that if you pick up the mx1000 and put it back down, it takes a noticable amount of time before it responds.

i really like that paint job..if only my mx510's paint job is that cool. looks like it has dents

I disagree. I don't even have to touch my mx1000 to the mousepad and it moves.

This one says optical, not laser (the mx518). I doubt it's got the mx1000 laser engine.

i'm not sure what you mean by that, from what i can see the finish is almost identical to the mx510, the only difference is the colour (silver instead of blue/red)

ati · Feb 19, 2005

the dents on it is more pronounced. it like real dents. the one on my mx510 is just like little swirls.
