Logitech's Latest Gaming Mouse - G9

[Indybird]

More also! They have released a second version of the G15! And it is sleeker and sexier. The link to its page is the picture:

Oooh...I like that. As if the G15 wasn't nice enough! The only thing that (in terms of function) has changed is that there are only 6 "G" Buttons, but that is fine since I never used more than 4 plus there are 3 "Shifts" to each key. I wonder if the lighting is more orange than it is red, I can't quite tell. If it is red then it is pure awesomeness, if it orange it is still pretty badass. Now, if the G15 had a color screen and the same customizability as the new G9!

i like the colour skeme on the new g15 but prefer my orginal g15 key layout.

I'm actually pretty dissapointed from looking at the specifications. Logitech are known for their ability to release very good quality and stylish gaming peripherals. And frankly..the new look g15 and the g9 are hideous... don't look too comfortable either. Why did they change the g15 anyway. nobody's ever had an issue with it..

instead of wasting time they could have released a next-step version with a colour screen. I mean..wth?

Did they at least add usb2 support?

The current G15 has USB 2.0, they just changed it not too long ago...
I agree with you on the G9 being ugly, but I think the new G15 is extremely stylish. I can't wait until the G17 though! It should have a color screen, changeable LED colors, and touch media buttons in addition to everything the current G15 has...

how long is "not long ago"? I never heard this..bought my g15 under a month ago and it's usb1

I just got a new one from an RMA and it even says on the box: "Full-Speed USB 2.0" I thought they did that a while ago, I guess it was really recent.

can you RMA the keyboard even though there is nothing wrong with it? (well there is, usb 1.1)

[Indybird]

I don't think, I sent mine in because I was having the key-fading problem. Let me add that the customer service Logitech gave me was outstanding, which is something you don't see very often...

The one I got from the RMA had a few changes from my last (first-gen) G15:
-Better Key Paint
-LCD Screen does not have the same rubbery-feel as the rest of the keyboard
-USB 2.0 ports
-Brighter lighting
-No Logitech Symbol on back of LCD
