Nova Gaming is best known as a long-time purveyor of a line of high-performance gaming mousepads in the Killer, Winner, Master and Raider series. And, now, to make sure its Nova B4L gamer's bag has more Nova gear inside than ever before, the French company is rolling out a gaming mouse, the Slider X600, at next week's E for All Expo in Los Angeles.
The gaming mouse market already has some formidable competition, such as the corded Logitech G9 (laser sensor, up to 3200 dpi, interchangeable grips, 5 buttons, adjustable mouse weights), corded Microsoft SideWinter (laser sensor, up to 2000 dpi sensor, 5 buttons, adjustable mouse weights and replaceable feet) and upcoming cordless Microsoft SideWinder X8 (Blue Track optical sensor, up to 4000 dpi, replaceable mouse feet, macro recording).
So, what does the Slider X600 bring to the table?
* Ceramic mouse feet (described as "indestructible")
* Up to 3200 dpi resolution
* Three mouse profiles
* Eight programmable buttons
* Five lighting color options
* A unique right-side location for the USB cable (see photo)
To keep the cord from getting in the way, Nova Gaming is also rolling out a new mouse pad, the OVER Slide, which features a cable clip on one side and Nova Gaming's trademark beveled-edge design which warns the user when he or she is about to mouse off the pad. OVER Slide features a 12,000 dpi ceramic mousing surface. Slider X600 will retail for $99.99, and the OVER Slide for $39.99, and you won't have long to wait: they're due in November.
