good ol' MX510 here 
very nice mouse, good control and it fits real nice in your hand too... could get the newer MX518 or even the new G5.

Logitech G5 laser mouse for sure - briliant bit of kit - my housemate who has an mx510 wishes he had one too

Yeah bought a G5 to replace a MX518, great mouse, other than it's missing a button!

MX510... ok, not the most sensitive anymore, but still excellent, and you can get it for 30 quid with a steelpad...bargain

Copperhead,

Another vote for the G5. It bugs me that there is a button missing but that aside, it is a great mouse.

also looking for an upgrade from my Diamondback Magma as its a little worn, have my eye on the Copperhead. but have also heard good things about G5. im not one for loads of buttons and dont like big mice... recomendations

Microsoft Wheelmouse Optical. "Gaming" mice are for suckers.

Copperhead without a doubt. Mate has a G5 which is equally impressive, but i'm firmly stuck on the Razer mouses after moving from a Logitech MX500 to Chameleon.

I bought a G7 - quite a luxury item for me, but I love it I love the hassle of no cables on my mouse, it works well in games and lasts a good length before swapping batteries

Vote for the G5. I use the tilt wheel for forward backwards and the side button for refresh

2nd vote for a G7 here, just as good as a G5 except there is no wire snag 
the batteries only take 2 hrs to charge (they last longer than 3 solid days of use, so you will never have problems), and the coolest bit is you can change them mid-game like a gun magazine (I think that was Logitech's idea)
Oh, and its much MUCH lighter than the mx700, but the same shape!

Anyone else had an issue with the G5 not working correctly under XP? I have installed the drivers and under device manager it has detected additioanl hardware plugged in but mouse doesnt light up and neither does the laser underneath? Duff mouse perhaps?
