Seems like a pimped version of the round Apple mouse that shipped with the first iMacs. I didn't care for that at all, neither did many others.

It looks interesting.  It may not be too hard for me to get used to, since I use "claw/finger grip," as they illustrate in the "tutorial" video.  The top and side buttons don't seem very efficient or nice (and mechanical) to me.

at first it only looked like a toy for gamers but reading all those comments I thought maybe it's something worth buying.

I have not used this device so my comments don't have too much weight. But from the look of the thing, the design doesn't seem to make for efficient use of the finger buttons. With the illustrated grip, it appears that only one top button is accessible to the index finger. Considering the shape, if might take some time to learn where the "hidden" grip buttons are, not to mention that attempting to trigger them will most likely move the mouse. And there is no scroll wheel. Personally, the thing looks painful to me both ergonomically and aesthetically.

The womans voice makes it sound like an adult phone line or something lol.  Especially when they talk about waxing and lubrication LOL!

Anyway as far as the actual mouse...looks like a painful experience, I was cringing when the person's finger was moving around for the buttons, yipes!
