Upgrade to Xai from Kinzu?

Thread Starter 
I have a kinzu (first gen) and the tracking is good on my 9HD but it's slightly too small for my hand. The feet are plastic and it doesn't glide too well. I know alot of source and 1.6 players use the xai and wondering if it's worth the $40 upgrade. I don't care about features as im only going in to my dpi and polling rate.

Also can't find a site that sells them, but futureshop does sell them from in-store.

Maybe the Kana?
It has an optical Pixart sensor. (instead of the Laser on the Xai)

And is between a Xai and Kinzu size wise.

Kana is nice, but the switches it uses is horrible, otherwise it's a great solid mouse and Xai is a good one too

Or Sensei Raw then.
Since you don't need the extra stuff that the normal Sensei has (LCD, colors, 5 profiles)
It is the same size as Xai
