What's your grip style?
Fingertip mostly. sometimes I switch to something in between fingertip and palm, but rarely.
What's your sensitivity?
Been using 800 DPI since I got the G5, but something a lil faster would help, so 800~1200 would be perfect,
What's your maximum budget?
No more than $80 if possible, unless it's something so good that justifies it.
Do you want additional buttons?
Two side buttons is enough.
What games do you play?
Bit of everything FPS, MMOs, Sandboxes. etc.
Do you mind about prediction?
Does a driverless G5 have it? if not, I don't want it, if yes, then I don't care.
Other relevant information:
I don't want it to be glossy. for obvious reasons.
Black color is a plus.
No bigger than a G5.
I actually still have a G5 laying around and that was a great mouse. If you liked the rubber feel of the G5 I would suggest the Mionix Naos or Zowie AM. The Mionix is of a similar size and shape. I'm assuming you have bigger hands if you are using a fingertip grip on a G5. If I'm wrong, then the Zowie AM may fit you a little better.
Both mice have 2 side buttons and are under you price req. The Zowie is black and the Mionix I got was grey, but you can get a black one.
The G400 is also an option as mentioned by NuFon, but it is glossy which you don't want.

1. What's your grip style?
I use my beloved Evoluent VerticalMouse 4 (wired), so I guess handshake grip is what I'd prefer? But, really, I have no problem using regular Mac mice (which is what they have at all the uni computers).
2. What's your sensitivity?
I prefer to use the 'MD' DPI setting on my VM4, which I think is around the 2000 mark (not completely sure).
3. What's your maximum budget?
$150
4. Do you want additional buttons?YES! Must have atleast two additional buttons, along with 2 regular buttons and a scroll wheel! (although a 3 regular buttons + scroll wheel design is preferable...but I don't such a mouse exists)
MUST! MUST! MUST!5. What games do you play?NONE! I am a CAD guy using Alias Automotive 2012, Rhino 5 x64, and SolidWorks 2012 x64.
6. Do you mind about prediction?
WTH is prediction?
7. Other relevant information:DRIVERLESS/ONBOARD MEMORY (I dunno what the difference is, or which one I'm looking for)
IS A MUST, as I need to program the additional buttons to function as 'Shift+Ctrl' and 'Shift+Alt' key combos and use it on any computer without having to install the driver.
If you are comfortable with any mouse, there are plenty of suggestions. But for most mice these days, in order to program the buttons to perform functions for you you'll have to install their software. Examples of this are the G9x, G500, Deathadder, Cyborg MMO or RAT 7, Mionix Naos, etc. If you're willing to deal with that take your pick from any of those mice.

Claw
2. What's your sensitivity?
Middle, not crazy high but not low either

$100
4. Do you want additional buttons?
Yes
5. What games do you play?
Starcraft 2, TF2, Counter-Strike
6. Do you mind about prediction?
Yes, zero please
7. Other relevant information:
Currently using a DeathAdder on a QCK mat. I want to try something lighter and smaller that I can move around quicker. Must be wired. 1000Hz polling is necessary too.
I've been looking into a Zowie AM but i'm open to other suggestions.
Zowie AM or Naga Hex would work for ya. So take your pick from rubber or glossy

1. What's your grip style?
My fingers rest on the mouse/buttons, not claw I think.
2. What's your sensitivity?
I feel like my dpi is usuall around 1000-2000 depending on the speed/acceleration settings.
3. What's your maximum budget?
No amount is too much!
4. Do you want additional buttons?
Yes
5. What games do you play?
MMOs and RTS's
6. Do you mind about prediction?
Not sure what prediction is
7. Other relevant information:
- non glossy if possible
- wired is fine
- hesitant wih razer because my current mouse is messed up
- HUGE deal, I have small hands so a smaller mouse is preferable
I would get a G500 but not sure how the size is compared to a naga epic.
It sounds like you have hands similar to mine and that you seem to palm the Naga. The G500 is much larger in length than the Naga, so I wouldn't recommend that. If you rest your entire hand on the mouse it would be a palm grip, and the Mionix Naos would suit you quite nicely, or you can try the Zowie AM. If these don't suit you, you can try the Logitech G9x or Naga Hex.
Will get to more suggestions soon. Write responses as time allows
