Don’t get me wrong, I love Razer gaming mice but I personally wouldn’t upgrade my corded Razer Copperhead for a wireless mouse. I get a bad taste in my mouth when I see the words “wireless mouse” and “gaming” in the same sentence. Even though the times were few, I recall losing epic battles or letting the team down when batteries died. Not to mention possible lag and disturbance from other wireless device.

Having said that, if you want more freedom to frag, can be bothered keeping an eye on your battery levels and don’t have a microwave sitting on your desk the new Razer Mamba.

Features of the Razer Mamba:
• Detachable seven-foot, lightweight, braided cord
• Battery life & DPI stage indicator
• Ultra-large non-slip Hyperesponse™ buttons
• Ergonomic design
• Zero-acoustic Ultraslick™ Teflon feet
Specifications:
• Gaming Grade Wireless Technology
• Dual Mode Wired/Wireless Functionality
• Razer Synapse™ On-board Memory
• 5600DPI Razer Precision™ 3.5G Laser sensor
• 1000Hz Ultrapolling™ / 1ms response rate
• Up to 200 inches per second*/ 50g acceleration
• Approximate size: 128mm x 70mm x 42.5mm
• Battery Life: 14hrs (continuous gaming); 72hrs (normal gaming usage)
*Depends on surface used

Visited Razer’s website today only to be confronted by a huge image of the new Razer Salmosa gaming mouse. Only one problem – there was no information on the actual product page! Seems like Razer is trying to build up the tension before letting this new snake loose. I guess we can deduce that the mouse will have a DPI rate, tracking technology or something, given the slogan “speed of the light” that appears beneath. Let’s see what transpires on this space…

In the meantime, both (one for home and one for office – blue & green) my Razer Copperhead’s are serving me well

Edit: Turns out that the Razer Salmosa isn’t as exciting as I thought it would be. Just read on Engadget that it’s a low-end gaming mouse…link here.
