I have used an earlier version of this product. I was very impressed with the quality -- very solid stainless steel construction. I used it for molecular modeling to manipulate objects in 3D. However, I stopped using it and returned to using a conventional mouse (Razer DeathAdder Black Edition), which I found more intuitive. BTW, the Razer DA Black is the best mouse I have ever used. One thing I particularly like about it is the fact that the smooth plastic exterior always feels dry to the touch, even after intense and prolonged use.
