I must ask: Is it the Logitech Cordless Elite Duo?  I
saw it listed as the "Best Buy" in last months Wired
issue and have noticed it's Award Winning status.  $99
gives you one reciever, a cordless optical mouse and a
cordless key board.  Seems like a great deal!  I
almost went for it except for 2 reasons:

1.) Mouse batteries.  Replacing them seems like a
rather expensive inconvenience.  With the MX700 you
get a reciever that is ALSO a charger!

2.) Accuracy.  I play Counter-Strike and need not only
the accuracy but stability as well.  While I can
manage in Counter-Strike with a standard logitech
corded optical, I can not "flick" my mouse nor play
games such as Q3 that require it for fast 180 degree
turns.  The MX700 seems have this under control.

Still, the idea of spending $80+ on a mouse seems
immoral to me.  Ok, maybe I'm just old fashion and
used to the days of -$30 mice =)
