Razer debuts high-precision...
Razer (Booth No. 429) this week introduced its Pro Solutions suite of Mac-compatible peripherals. With its distinctive design and blue-white light, the Pro Solutions v1.6 mouse ($60, pictured at right) uses the same proprietary Razer Precision optical engine as the Razer Diamondback gaming mouse, offfering an optical resolution of 1600 dpi--or nearly double the precision of a standard mouse. At 6400 frames per second, the v1.6 is also twice as fast as a regular computer mouse, according to the company. The mouse features an "Always On" mode -- the optical sensor never powers down, providing the user instantaneous response at all times -- as well as seven independently programmable buttons with multiple macros for the ultimate in customization. The company also introduced ProPad ($30), a mousepad thatis made from anodized, abrasion resistant, anti-reflective aluminum for long life; it features two distinct mousing surfaces and an increased surface area compared to standard mouse pads.
