Just want to know what you think of it.
Raada, so of you may remember him, has one and he loves it but he isnt playing CS anymore and I was wondering if someone had played CS with one.

I don't know about that exact model, but my wife got me a logitech wireless opticle mouse similiar, except it uses batteries instead of a recharge base.
It sucked for gaming. The response was either to sensative or delayed. It skipped if the mouse was moved fast.
I ended up giving it to my wife and going back to using my old corded opticle mouse.

Someone gave the 700 an excellent fps gaming review. Forget where... sorry.
I think Bubba bought one, but I'm not sure.

Well I just gave the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer with Bluetooth a serious SOF2 workout and it was excellent. I would stay my aim was slightly more accurate and noticed no hesitations at all.

The bonus with the mx700 is that it has a recharger, which doubles as the receiver (i think), so you never need batteries.
If it is as good as people say, i would be interested in one.
The claim is that within a 2 metre range, the signal strength is equivalent to just using a USB cable, so no delay, or mouse lag.
Might take a look at one from somewhere i know i can take it back lol!

There is one thing that concerns me though.
On the logitech website is this mx 700 info
"ALMOST".
Not "the same as" .
I dont trust that to be honest, and while some people may not notice a slight difference, i know i would.Im very fussy about things like that.
more info here http://www.logitech....&contentID=6076
It looks very nice, but if any i would pick the mx500, which is the exact same mouse, only wired.

Your cordless mouse responds now almost as fast as a corded model.

Originally I returned my Bluetooth for a MX700. For me the MX did not work as well. I was intrigued by the rechargable feature and that works as advertised. My problem was I don't have much room near my gaming machine and I could not place the receiver at the recommended distance from my monitor. 
Result: Some lag and drifting while playing games... = DEAD OFTEN! Bubba has one and doesn't have those problems.
The Bluetooth does not have the same problem so I reordered one. It does kickass, but it cost $90 if you can find one.
For the price I'd grab the MX, although I like the "explorer feel" of the Bluetooth.
