Default New G9 Gaming Mouse and Revamped G15

Logitech just came out with a new G9 mouse and a redesigned G15 gaming keyboard, thought some here might be interested:

http://newsletter2.logitech.com/logi...spotlight.html



http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/mi...Email&cl=US,EN

The new G9 sports quite a few innovative features. It is highly customizable, coming with two interchangeable grips, adjustable weight, and the ability to change LED color. Also neat, your can set different profiles for sensitivity and button programming, and if you use the G9 on a different computer, it will take those profiles with you.

The new G15 hasn't changed THAT much. It's a bit smaller, now with only 6 macro keys instead of 18 (but who used that many anyway) It's also now orange-red instead of blue (I kinda think the blue looked better). However one definite improvement is the LCD. It is no longer a flip up that you would be afraid to snap off, but a permanently open, much better looking orange on black display.

I think its suppose to be '/rant'.
And the G7 and G15 have been out for awhile.

I might get the new mouse and keyboard, and only use them at LAN parties, or on another computer.

It's nice to see that they have brought back the forward and back buttons on the G9 and integrated a tilt wheel for side-scrolling. Having said that, that thing is ugly as sin. As for the G15, all I can say is 'yes please'.

Seems like any other keyboard except with a useless LCD screen and backlit keys?

i am more calm now i think. i hate red lights. it will get on my nerves, but i like the more flowing shape because the current g15 (blue) which i have i think is a little under my quality standards....wow was i pissed lol. i still prefer my G7 compared to the g9. ew. i just noticed the g15 is wired ewwwwwwwwww. GO WIRELESS!!!
