These new mice raise the bar for PC gaming by providing impressive specs, blazing speed, and a wide range of customization options.

The Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse and Logitech G5 Laser Mouse include an extremely powerful tracking system. Both include resolution of up to 2000 dpi, which can be adjusted on the fly to as low as 400 dpi; Logitech Gaming-Grade laser illumination and tracking; full-speed USB data transfer; a fast 6.4 megapixels of image processing per second. Altogether, these specs allow gamers to experience unparalleled precision and speed from their G-series mouse.
The G7 and G5 are Logitech´s first computer mice to leverage full-speed USB. Each mouse delivers 500 reports per second - much faster than the 60 to 125 reports per second of traditional USB mice. This ability to transmit data more frequently is critical to ensure absolute precision with no lag. For Windows 9x and ME users only, the Logitech SetPointsoftware will limit the report rate to 125 reports per second.

The G7 Laser Cordless Mouse also has a striking paint scheme. The iridescent green siding contrasts with the silver keyplate, each with a polish similar to that of a high-gloss automobile finish.
To provide the ultimate in customization, the Logitech G5 Laser Mouse comes with 16 miniature round weights - eight weighing 1.7 grams and eight weighing 4.5 grams. Any combination of up to eight weights fits into a small cartridge that can be inserted into the base of the mouse. Gamers can achieve thousands of combinations of weight, including distributing the weight within the cartridge so that the mouse is heavier on one side or the other. Gamers can tune to their exact needs - so that they have unmatched precision.

The Logitech G5 Laser Mouse also features a radical, hand-finished paint scheme. Each mouse goes through a seven-step finishing process, features three colors of paint, and is hand-sanded so that every mouse is unique. The final product is a combination of rust red, smoke black, and silver colors. To the touch, the surface feels soft and comfortable, ideal for extended game play.

With the included Logitech SetPoint software, gamers can choose differing horizontal and vertical resolutions. For example, if a game requires rapid horizontal movement but more accurate vertical movement, one could tweak those resolution settings to be 2000 dpi horizontally, and 400 dpi vertically. The software also allows gamers to program as many as five levels of resolution. Without software, the two buttons beneath each mouse´s scroll wheel increase or decrease the mouse resolution during game play to three preset resolutions - 2000 dpi, 800 dpi and 400 dpi.
The Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse has a suggested retail price in the U.S. of $99.99, while the Logitech G5 Laser Mouse has a suggested retail price of $69.99. They will be available in the U.S. and in Europe in September.
