Logitech launches G9 laser mouse

DQC News Bureau

Bangalore: Logitech has introduced the newest addition to its line of
G-series peripherals for PC gaming. The Logitech G9 laser mouse is customized
for PC gamers and features two interchangeable grips: wide-load grip and
precision grip. The G9 mouse allows for customized weight tuning and weight
distribution which enables gamers to choose from among hundreds of weight
settings by inserting up to four additional weights in the mouse's weight tray,
adding up to a maximum of 28 grams. In total, gamers can choose from eight
additional weights. The spring-loaded weight cartridge fits snugly in the bottom
of the G9 mouse and can be easily opened, retuned and secured in moments.

Using the new Logitech SetPoint software Version 5.0, gamers can create a
number of profiles for their mouse. With the mouse's onboard memory, gamers can
take their personalized settings anywhere. Upto five profiles - including
specified keyboard macros, dpi settings and LED color settings - can be stored
on the mouse for on-the-go gaming. The G9 mouse can automatically identify the
saved gaming profile, or gamers can manually control the profile settings using
a button located on the bottom of the mouse. Gamers can also choose from a broad
range of LED colors that can be linked to each onboard profile, enabling them to
coordinate the look of their mouse with their PC setup. When in use, the LED
lights up to show mouse dpi and profile settings.

The G9 mouse can be shifted on the fly to up to 3200 dpi for precise cursor
movements, or down to as low as 200 dpi for games that require pixel-precise
control. A full-speed USB connection delivers up to 1,000 reports per second.
The G9 laser mouse also features the MicroGear Precision Scroll Wheel.

The G9 Laser mouse is priced at INR 5,995 and would be distributed in India
by Neoteric, Origin Marketing and Rashi Peripherals. The product comes with
three years replacement warranty.
