just what is it exactly? like this mouse I want had different Dpi settings up to 2000, does that mean 2000 is the best? or for other occasions is lower dpi better?
 
Mice with variable DPI are useful when playing FPS games because different guns may be easier to use with a less/more sensitive setting. For example, sniping, you will need slow, careful movements so a lower sensitivity will slow your cursor down while normal run-and-gunning will requires fast movements that are better suited for a high sensitivity mouse. Also, with high sensitivity comes better accuracy when moving fast because your mouse "updates" faster. Other than FPS games, I can't think of much of a reason to have that feature.

i'd definitely go with a more traditional mouse. i have the logitech G5, and it's awesome. 2,000 DPI, adjustable weight cartridge, and really nice surface that feels sorta grippy. it also has a little button for quick DPI adjustment for in game switching.
