Right now I'm looking at a number of different companies for a hard surface mousepad that will last. Right now I'm most worried about durability. The Sidewinder X8 tracks on anything, so I'm not that worried about color or print design so long as it looks appealing. I think i've got my budget narrowed to $20 and looking for a conservative size since I'm not sure how large my desk at university is. I read a lot of reviews on Newegg saying the XTracPads hard surfaces (Pro HS and Zoom V2) had construction problems. The Pro HS would wear down after a few months of heavy use (and the hard surface would start peeling off) and the Zoom V2 wouldn't grip hard enough to stay in place. These are the things I'm trying to avoid.
I'm currently thinking about the Steelseries 4HD or the 3HD if they release it soon. I found out about Puretrak in another thread; what do people think of their hard surfaces? They're only $10, so i'm suspicious. Any other suggestions?
