After using it I can't really go back, the extra buttons come in handy in games like Arma where there is a boatload of things to bind (although most games don't usually support more then four or five buttons, so I currently have the sixth button bound to print screen for those Kodak moments) The scroll wheel catch toggle comes in handy when one needs to scroll though a stuffload of stuff (Or you're just bored) and the sensitivity adjustment buttons are handy for those times in games where normally using a turret requires you to do five full mouse pad swipes in order to do a half-turn, or you need to aim a bit more precisely.
Same here. My only problem is the side finish, It's a little too gritty for me.
