Design: Ergonomic
Pointing Device Features: Ergonomic

Weakness: Not worth retail price. Recurring AA battery expense. Limited customization. Scroll wheel issue. side button placement. difficult to use while standing.
Its main strength is its advertised one, ergonomics. It feels very solid and well built. Two AA batteries are supposed to last a long 6 months (Mine are still at the highest level after one).

Also, my g9...
Strengths: connects fast, responds well, comfortable, laser
Weakness: not rechargeable
This mouse has a weird shape which requires some getting use to. After some usage though the mouse feels comfortable. The usb receiver for this mouse is bit big in size but manageable. Responds pretty well though.
Strengths: comfortable, laser, perfect size
Weakness: not rechargeble, pricey

I wish Microsoft made it rechargeable and change usb receiver (make it smaller).This mouse responds pretty quick and precise. Also, it works with Mac computers I intend to use it with my MacBook Pro.

Excellent Ergonomics
Strengths: natural shape that fits your palm
Weakness: not so great for gaming
I highly recommend this mouse for anyone who has discomfort or issues around carpal tunnel using traditional mice. This design is great to relieve stress while still providing a fairly traditional mouse design and experience. My only disappointment was in using it for gaming. Gaming can really worsen or cause carpal tunnel, so I was looking for a mouse that'd be good for work and games as well....
