Hi Guys. We are a UK based company that manufacture ergonomic mice. We are currently looking for beta testers for a new design of ergonomic gaming mice. It's design is focused on accuracy and endurance.

The testers will be sent a short questionnaire and may be invited to test prototypes.

Thanks for your time.

Nice.  I'd live to be a part.  My normal mouse has been bugging me lately.

I'd love a chance to play with some new gear...and provide detailed feedback  ;D
unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)

I live in remote mountains as far and away as it is possible, but still, even here in this remote land, we use mice. I'd love to test a new one.

I'm the US, but would be interested in testing new hardware.

In addition to gaming I could test feasibility in a work environment.

If the mouse can be used in the left hand, I'd love to give it a go.
I'm not in the UK, but shipping to France shouldn't be too bad

Seeing that it's a gaming mouse, how many buttons does it have? Right now I'm using a SS Sensei RAW

I also would like to test it. I have used several different mice to find the best.
I am living in Germany and I can also compare it to some other ergonomic mice.

I don't think I'm enough of a gamer to be able to answer some of the questions on this,  I come from a simpler time when victory was achieved through skill rather than having a flashy mouse that does things for you.

I think as the company aims to offer the mouse to professional gamers too, they have to ask these very specific questions. In my opinion nowadays skill is still more important than equipment - but that doesn't mean you can't have the best possible equipment available.
