    I've bought the Pyra Wireless about 2 years ago, and have been using it in G73JH, M15x, and a couple of M17x R2's.
    I didn't find any reviews or opinions on durability, so i figured i'll leave my impression about this particular mouse.

    By now it has malfunctioned on me for the second time.
    First time the left click started making doubleclicks on random. (about 1 year after purchase) -> i've fixed it by replacing the clicker with a better quality one.
    Now, the second time the LED for the sensor has died, i can click with it, but can't move the cursor (2 years after purchase) -> i'll be fixing it again i guess.

    Pros:
    When it works its worth the trouble
    3 different DPI setting for different types of work
    Can use rechargeable batteries
    EasyShift
    Macros
    Wireless never had any interference issues

    Cons:
    The USB adapter is a pain in the , smallest nudge can DC the mouse followed by high DPC spike.. (Was happening to me on all laptops i've had).
    Malfunctioned 2 times already (Clicker / Sensor LED)
    The glue that holds rubber peices in place is and i had to replace it after short 3 months of use. (used Super Glue and have had 0 problems with it since).
