If you want a new mouse for Christmas and have 44.90 Euro to spare, you might just want to consider getting the Kinzu v2 Pro Edition from SteelSeries.

That's 58.48 US dollars if anyone's wondering, although we're not sure that's the price people should expect for when the thing reaches the US.

Speaking of which, the Kinzu v2 Pro Edition is, at present, available in Europe alone.

The rest of the world will only get it at some point in January, 2012.

That said, the thing has a 1,000 Hz polling rate, a 3,200 dpi optical sensor, three buttons, a clickable scroll wheel, USB 2.0 connectivity and three color options: black, red and silver.

Anyone should be able to experience enjoyment, thanks to the ambidextrous design, the Omron button switches and the teflon feet (low-friction glide).
