I love my Naos 5400, so I'm seriously debating about this.  If I didn't already have the 5400, I'd be on this in a heartbeat.

Really disliked my DA as well for its size, but I have small hands and prefer to claw grip.

I've never heard of this company... are they any good? They're demanding quite a premium at $90 (regular). Even $55 for a mouse is quite large, IMO.

It uses the Avago ADNS-9800 sensor and nice Omron switches.  It seems like they've pretty much worked out all the kinks that that sensor has had in the past (acceleration mainly).  Like I said earlier, I absolutely love my Naos 5000 and it has solid build quality.  If you have a medium sized hand and palm grip, it's pretty much a perfect mouse.  I have a larger hand and it's almost perfect for me.

Several of the mice nerds at OCN love it.  I haven't seen any comments at ESR, but they'll probably find some asinine issue with it.

mionix makes a mechanical keyboard. That's what I know them for.

Their Propus 380 mousepad is also awesome.
