    VX Revolution @ tiger direct.


    $80(regular) - $40(instant) - $40(logitech rebate) = $0.00 + s/h

    Mail in rebate is made through Logitech and is eligible for purchases made on 11/26(today)

    I paid $60+s/h for mines from newegg and it's a great mouse.
    Enjoy :)

    I was actually considering picking up a Logitech MX Revolution mouse today at Newegg since they have it at such a great price (being Cyber Monday and all) to replace my aging MX518. Can anyone who owns the MX Revolution tell me how it fares at playing games?

    The instant Rebate is down to $30, but a VX for $17 is still a great deal.
    I think...

    As far as I can tell, feature wise the only difference between the VX and the MX is the Quick Flip?

    Mine is highly responsive whenever I play CS:S. However, I find that it's best to keep the receiver plugged into a USB port on your keyboard (if you have one), or at least keep the receiver where it is in clear sight of the mouse. Otherwise, it'll sometimes hang and you won't be able to move for a few seconds.

    I've never had connectivity problems with my mouse, regardless of where the receiver is connected.

    They had the same deal at amazon, but for $6.99 AR and since I live in California no tax. Basically saved 50 cents going with amazon over TD, and I recieved the VX mouse earlier today.

    The VX is a smaller mouse made for notebooks so its more portable. I love the little eject button for the usb reciever. Sure its about an inch long, but its decent for when I need it.

    If you want a gaming mouse then I'd stick with the logitech gaming mice. My mx518 for some reason just has a better feel to it for twitch based gaming. Plus it has the different dpi adjustment buttons. The VX wheel is heavier and the features are more for an office type setting. Will work fine for games, but not the best.

    A new display ad for the VX Revolution showed they will be having the Nano receivers. I saw this at my local Best Buy last week. They had only mice with the normal receivers in stock. The BB rep explained that the ad had been put up by the local vendor (I hope I'm getting that part right), so it certainly wasn't an error.

    I'd love to bite and get this deal. But I want one with a Nano receiver even more.
