Seems pretty good although I've just got a regular optical mouse. Plus it only cost me £6 inc postage

I was going to get one of those - wonder how they do with a laser mouse (G5)? - Anyone had any experience or know anyone who has?

Wow, necroposting!

Just bought one of these (reviewed here). Just the right size and it feels and works well. How well it'll cope as it gets dirty is a different matter, I used to wash my icemat fairly regularly.

I've got one of those, nice mousemats

Found it very handy when I used to play Counterstrike a lot.
Didn't notice it get dirty either.

Yeah, I have to wash my icemat every now and then. I have one at work and I suspect the cleaners might be having a go at it (which has both good and bad points).

Would use one at home but there isn't room for it.

I must've have the oldest mousemat here, still using a Buff the Vampire Slayer Mousemat circa 1999 !!! Was a Christmas present from an Ex back then, and it's the oldest piece of computing bits i still use. I always wonder what are all these new mousemats are like and if they are better, pity you can't try it in the shops before buying one.

Not a chance. I own 2 mousemats, one of them came with my first PC which I bought probably sometime in late 98/early 99. The other I used to use with my Amiga 500 back in the day...

I still own Compuserve mousemats, and I'm pretty sure I have a Staffordshire Uni mousemat, circa 1992.

If we're going for history I've still got (and use) a mousemat which is like diving suit rubber stretched over a very thick piece of card, cost me £25 when Microsoft had just started selling their original mouse and the mouse was £118.

But I am an old git!

I feel like I'm missing out on a club here - I don't own and have never owned a mousemat! Then again my desk works well for laser mice so it's not a biggie. I don't know how I did it with the old ball mice....
