Doesn't that sensor have inconsistent positive acceleration?
Yes, but it's so small you wouldn't even know it unless you were deliberately looking for it.
The only other issue is that it's a 3600DPI native sensor, meaning any DPI setting above 3600DPI uses interpolation (software). But if you don't use more than 3600DPI (which I think would be stupidly high anyway), this doesn't affect you at all.
Otherwise, I'd say this sensor is pretty much perfect.
The other option is basically the Philips TwinEye, which is jittery and doesn't detect liftoffs properly (due to the sensors being angled so they can fit two in, hence the name "twineye"). And those issues are very noticable.
If I had the choice between paying $100 far a mouse with an Avago 9500 sensor, and being paid $100 to use a mouse with a Philips TwinEye, I'd still go with the Avago 9500. I'd avoid the Philips TwinEye like the plague.
Note: I own two mice with Philips TwinEye sensors and three with avago 9500 sensors (all different)
My main mouse right now is a Steelseries Xai which I use at 1000DPI, with all acceleration features disabled (including a registry patch to disable the Windows acceleration).
I might consider getting an M90 though. It looks like it's actually pretty good, and the price is actually good too.
