What is a dual optical mouse?
Is it better then a regual optical mouse?
How much does it cost and where can u get them?
its made by logitech and it has two optical sensors instead of one-for greater accuracyQuote:

i've never used one, but i've seen many good reviews of them...last time i checked they were $30-40
moouers, have u ever tried the microsoft intellimouse optical or explorer? if you have, how does the dual optical rate compared to them
yeah, my friend had the microsoft intellimouse...but unfortunately i can't give a very accurate comparison. the last time i used the microsoft one was last year when i didn't quite realize what a good mouse was. but my friend who has been using that microsoft optical mouse for a long time now says he is going to buy the dual optical after seeing how good it was:) so i guess that says something. i like the ergonomics of it too...very comfortable and natural.
I've heard a lot of good things about those mice. I'm not going to upgrade though. I already have an Intellimouse Optical.
yea, ive had the dual optical for a few months now and have been extremely happy with it.. unfortunately i did run into problems such as the left button sticking during a few games.. but now.. sadly, the mouse is dead.. doesnt work at all.. no idea why since i take good care of it.. oh well time to buy another :(
I also have the dual optical Logitech mouse. It is very comfortable. I highy recommend it. I got it for $50 from Bestbuy.
Dude, warranty it. I know it's a pain, but I believe that thing carries a 5 year warranty on it.Quote:

I will never go back to a ball mouse. I hate it when I get on another computer and have to deal with one. Optical forever.
there's one more thing i have to say about this mouse...
i can now draw a circle in Paint!;)
Anyone got a link for this mouse?

I can make an accurate comparison of all three opitical mice. logitech single optical(at home), Logitech dual(on laptop),Microsoft explorer(at work).
#1)Logitech optical single. Before you guys start yelling at me, let me tell you why i think this. First off I have the previous generation of logitech optical, 1st gen optical i think too with iFeel. The only reason I put this here is because it feels so much better with long uses/games, it's the best design logitech ever made, why they switched is beyond me.
#2)Logitech dual. Very precise, I can draw very accuratly with this one, a good work mouse if you ask me. Only problem is design, for big hands it feels kinda cramped. Buttons are alright.
#3)Microsoft explorer. This one seems very hastly put together and the buttons are misplace. Please note that this is the first gen explorer too and the new ones that i have tried are better now. the feel of the mouse is good, you can use it for a long time but not good for gaming.
If they made dual optical with prev gen style it would be an awsome mouse, ack i can't believe they changed it.
