    The biggest difference is that the 510 can track 15g's of acceleration, while the 500 can only take 10. You will <i>never</i> come even remotely close to 10g's while using a mouse.

    Sorry, no help 4 u but I just wanted to say I'm very very happy with my new Logitech MX1000. At first there was a problem where the mouse pointer jumped down to the bottom of the screen randomly by itself, but SetPoint 2.x fixed that up ...

    mmm ... laser ...

    EDIT: Btw I was hoping it was a red dot laser so I could lock someone up and laugh manically as the laser beam moved slowly upwards towards their **** like in James Bond ... but it's invisible, damnit.

    At least you can still make people go colourblind.

    meh, I went and got a logitech mx510. As far as the 1000 is concerned iIdoubt you'd be able to tell the difference.

    I'm using a Logitech MX310, works fine, is primarily black (buttons are silver), has mousewheel and two side buttons, corded, optical. Works fine and isn't too expensive ($20-$30)

    It's alright. Which leaves me wondering who else is female here, asides from Kylie, who I already know is female. It's a testosterone-fest. Quite the fun.

    First rule of the internet: Everyone you meet it male unless otherwise specified

    Second rule of the internet: All self proclaimed females you meet are actually male.

    There's nowhere I can put the transmitter that isn't next to electronics, cord isn't long enough D:

    So it goes next to my printer about 7-10 cm away from my mouse, and right next to my other pc, router and modem. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Alright, thanks. Seems either all the females ran away from the nubmer of males, or they won't speak up.

    ...Or they're not really females.

    So true. Throw in the fact that it has 12 bindable buttons, and it stands head and shoulders above any other mouse I've ever owned.

    For under 60$ however, the 518 is your best bet.
