Nice, so they've finally arrived. They did a better job of getting them here than they did with the K850i and W910i though! And a lot better than the W960i which despite what shopkeepers and the SE website said, never arrived! Are you still planning on getting yourself a W980, carkitter? If so, where from? Not a Vodafone I assume...
On the subject of computer mice, I've gotten so used to using the touch pad thing on my laptop that I find mice weird to use. I do all my photoshopping and everything with the touch pad. Easy.

I was surpised at how small the W980 is - it's alot smaller than the V800.
$999 will be way to much, I'd rather go for a $795 TradeMe special... though ATM I'm quite keen on a phone with wifi to connect to the Uni network. For $799 I can get a N95 from Dick Smith Electronics while for $699 I can get an iPhone on a $40 per month contract saving me about $80 per month on my current contract. As such, you can see the W980 is up against it despite being the best looking.
On Monday I'll be taking my V640i in for servicing to get the Modem function fixed. It hasn't worked consistantly from with BT and now the USB function has packed up too.

This mouse is a little ripper! It connects automatically by BT and works great. I'm a big TouchPad fan too but the Left Click button on my Laptop is getting a bit temperamental and the mouse adds a scroll wheel which is really useful. It also comes with a very nice M$ labelled carry case too.

Nice mouse carkitter. It looks very cool. Futuristic and all that.
@yea g: I tend to add someone once they look like they might stick around, cause there's not much point if they make 2 posts then bugger off! We'll wait and see if they decide Esato is homely enough.

Pretty fancy high end mice there. I went for a BT mouse a) because I like all things wireless and b) so that I don't have a device monopolising one of my 3 precious USB ports. Mine cost $48 +GST

I can testify that the G9 is an awesome mouse, though it took some getting used to after changing from a Microsoft Habu (Awesome as well - but unfortunately it developed a problem with the cable connection that meant it dropped out all the time. I got a credit from Dick Smith as they are no longer stocked and paid my mate $1 more than I paid for the Habu to get the G9 - hooray for wholesale prices!)
I have long stayed away from Logitech mice due to the size of my hands (Large...) but the G9 caters for this by offering an XL cover for the mouse

@ Yea G
If you search Pricespy.co.nz you'll find that you can get a G5 for $77 or a G9 for $104

Haha. Wow they really picked a great concert to sponsor!
[/sarcasm]
Seriously though, who is SE NZ's marketing manager? They are awful at their job.

Actually, I thought that was a good move. I like Rihanna's music and don't mind Chris Brown.
Having just bought Ministry of Sound's 'Anthems' on Friday, I'm now eyeing up Rihanna's 'Good girl gone bad'.
