« on: Tue, 03 September 2013, 20:09:42 »
Is this still in production?

If not, what is its successor?

I have 3 or 4. When I see a good used one for a cheap price, I snag it.

Sorry if I'm derailing the thread a bit, but what do you consider to be a good price?

I was referring to a salvage store/yard sale/thrift store price of $2-$4

On ebay it would have to be at least $5 + $5 shipping or it would not even be worth the seller's time.

It's not in production, hasn't been for ages, and the closest thing you'll get to a successor is a Zowie or SS mouse.

I suspected. Blah.

I ordered a Zowie for home but want something similarly shaped (and less expensive) for work..

Yep, thank god for these stores  :thumb: .

I bought four very neat ones at Good Samy's here in Oz for $10.00AUD.  They don't normally deal with PC hardware but someone donated them and most people go to their stores to buy clothes.  I just got lucky that day when I saw them for sale on their counter as I passed by.

Good thing I cut across from the car park through their store to get to the Great Eastern Hwy shop-district in Midland.

Still pretty cheap NIB from China, I just picked one up. I'm not sure if this is the 1.1a or not

There seems to be a decent number of WMOs on eBay, how to tell if it's 1.1a?
