In case of this mouse, everything from cable thickness to it's weight to the way it glides can be customized to suit individual preferences.
Microsoft has reportedly launched the SideWinder gaming mouse, which mainly targets hardcore computer video game fans.
In case of this mouse, everything from cable thickness to it's weight to the way it glides can be customized to suit individual preferences.
The mouse weight can be adjusted anywhere between 5 and 30 grams in 5 gram increments.
Three buttons instantly switch between DPI 400, 800, and 2000, else settings can be customized using special software.
Users can also select from three sets of mouse feet for that perfect 'glide' effect.
According to Microsoft, the SideWinder mouse features a 2,000 dpi resolution, 7080 frames per second image processing, 20G max acceleration, 45 inches per second max speed, and an amazing 9 million clicks on each of the main buttons.
The mouse includes a Quick Launch Button; 5 programmable main buttons; advanced gaming software for programming macros and profiles and customizing game settings; a wide metal scroll wheel; and vertical metal side buttons.
Interestingly, the SideWinder comes with the first ever LCD on a mouse to keep track of game functions and settings.
The SideWinder mouse is expected to ship in October for around $80 (Rs 3,278 approx)

It will never cost the dollar equivalent here. It's always more expensive. Having said that, $80 is Microsoft's MSRP, it always sells for less in the USA, so I'm guessing it will cost somewhere in the region of around 4,250 - 4,500 INR IF they bring it to India.

Now if they could just adjust the price downwards.
