I like optical mice because they seem to be less problematic and marketing aside they are cheaper than lasers so I hope opticals are not on the verge of being phased out. I have a feeling Avago is going to create a lesser version of the 9500 because the second best laser they have is the 6090 and there is a huge performance gap in between the two.

Interesting. Does the avago adns-9500 have reverse acceleration (or whatever it is called)?
(btw, I remember reading that laser mice have reverse acceleration, which means they will accelerate if you move them faster. I thought it was in that post I linked, but I guess not.
Basically it was something like this: Put your mouse pointer at the bottom corner of the screen, and move it slowly up to the opposite top corner. Remember where the mouse was, and how far it moved. Then do it again, only move the mouse faster. With laser mice, the second time the mouse will not have to move as far. With optical it will be the same. Hopefully the way I described it makes sense
