Default Poll: copperhead or g5
copperhead or g5? please give insight

I just made the decision and went with the copperhead... the g5's customizable weight seemed gimmicky, it occasionally had tracking problems and I kept hearing the scrollwheel wasn't that swell... the 1ms polling of the copperhead seemed promising

Anyways, it would be nice to see whether I made the right choice or not

My bias vote goes to the copperhead since I dont think I've ever used a G5. Unless thats the one with rechargeable batteries. And if thats the case, it's lame.
