what about the new mouse coming out from Logitech? How will the Copperhead surpass the G7. It supposably runs in the 2.7 ghtz area.
I have been waiting for the Copperhead ever since i heard of it (that would be sinec july).

Singapore does rock. Esp the food. You gotta try the hainanese chicken rice! My personal fave. Haha.

Waiting eagerly for the launch of Copperhead so i can get my hands on them.

“WCG is the Olympics of gaming” lolz WCG drops games like q3 and ut2004 in favor of FIFA,CS and NFS… WCG is a “special olympics” of gaming!

Obviously you have not attended one of the WCG Finals. They are entertainment events with a great international flavor. If you don’t agree with their selection of titles you are certainly welcome to your opinion, however it seems to me that other big tours have also dropped Q3 and have not supported UT due to its relatively small base of popularity.

Well Im curious too. Logitech seems to have an insider in your firm or something. Everytime you make an advance inmouse technology, there U have it, logitech doing the same and with completely same specs (and Diamondback, MX518 had identical sensors LMAO). Logitech won in the end cause its ergonomy was supperior. BTW I own Diamondback plasma, and gonna buy Copperhead as soon as it becomes available. But I was tempted by the Logitech cause it offered same precision and everything else + it had great ergonomy for the hand (specificaly thumb rest and REACHABLE side buttons). I really hope new Copperhead will have new side buttons that are reachable more easy and press sensors arent so stiff to press.

Overall I love the technology you pioneer everytime you usher a new product. Just please pay more attention to your competitors, cause i really dont want razer to be beaten by a $$$ firm like Logitech. ($$$ = monopolist).

Please answer the question,. is new Logitech mouse the same in technology excell as copperhead? Have they beat you in your own game even before the product is lunched?

And whats with the claim TRUE laser and FIRST LASER MOUSE? Isnt DIODE laser,.. a Laser all the same?

I’m hanging for the release date [as is every other razer fan!], can we have at least an approx. timing of the release?

I think wire mouse is better the wirless mouse they respone better..

I am a owner of you Diamondback, and i very happy with it..

I wish i can have your Copperhead but then again..

Your Copperhead is too Expansive!!

yeah im waiting eargerly as well. Ive been buying logitechs for a while no, aminly because i was ill-informed by one of my friends about razer. But about a month ago iw as shoopting around ina best buy and felt the diamondback and it felt great. Was just about to get it when I saw the copperhead demo on razerzone.com.

I checked gamespot and for a while they had posted that the copperdead would be released 8/22/05, and now theve changed tehe date to 8/29/05 when they released the official review. So basically, it supposed to be out today (or rather 8/29/05 ended 2 hours ago) but i dont see it on amazon or froogle, razerzone ahsnt changed, and the “checkprices” option tab on gamespot is grey. So im hopin itll be out within a cuple says cuz i just one $150 in that gamespot cs:s torny, and im lookin forward to spendin it.

Whats the release date???i cant wait it i was going to buy MX 518 but after i saw this mouse i want Copperhead!

So RazerGuy, anythign official??

My good friends and future Copperhead owners … I would love to be able to pick a hard date for delivery of this highly anticipated product (trust me the wait will be worth it), however no one in the world can predict when product will arrive because there are just too many variables outside our control. We do not own or control the ships, aircrafts and trucks that transport our products from the factory. We have absolutely no control over the customs agencies in each country. Like you we are hoping for the best. I will not go on record for any date. Here is a notice I received from our distribution company today:

“In addition to rising fuel charges – a Typhoon has recently hit Taiwan resulting in backlogs (too much cargo – not enough space to get it out). This is expected to cause some airlines to increase current rates. For those of you with current airfreight shipments, we will continue to keep you updated on status.”

Natural disasters will not help to speed up the delivery of the Copperhead. Please be patient … we are trying our best to deliver you the ultimate gaming device. It is not our intent to be vague, but on the other hand we don’t want to be wrong and give you some blue sky answer.

I have friends in Taiwan. Let me know where and I’ll have them buy it for me.

Where did you get it? I have friends in Taiwan too. Thanks ;P

I understand what your saying razerguy. Thanks for giving us all the details you can instead of just a shallow “coming soon” banner that leaves us completly out of the loop.

Now this isnt exactly in response to the topic, but i cant seem to figure out how large of a company razer is. I know theve been fairly long-established in the hardware marker, but does anyone know exactly to what scale they run? It would seem like they would need a strong workforce to put teh research and development into their products in order to compete with Logitech and such, but this razerguy blog seems to be the type of thing you would find with a small business. Any insight on the companies size?

Hello -

Nothing new I am afraid to say but its now after 10 pm on Monday September 5 and I don’t know where my new Copperhead mouse is! Seriously, I was just lookng for an update on its availability. I had been an early customer for Plasma but I never got one (missed the second request for all info). Please keep me posted of latest info. Can’t wait to get my sweaty little hands on it. Thank you! I am in NYC in US.

hows the performance of a razer at a x-raypad thunder8?….does razer has mouseskates?

man, i come to the site all ready to buy a diamonback to compliment the labor day sale parts i bought to FINALLY have a new computer and then i see news of a copperback…finally something to match my hanging-on-a-thread dying boomslang 2000! but alas, no release date…i’m in nyc too, and i can’t WAIT to get my hands on a new razer! especially since mine is currently suffering from bad double-click issues…¬.¬

it seems as though they just posted a notice for QuakeCon attendees saying that the coupons are valid from Sept 26th to Oct 7th… so I guess they are expecting shipment of the Copperhead on or before Sept 26th… could that be right?

Quote from the QuakeCon message
“Thank you for visiting the Razer booth at QuakeCon 2005!

Unfortunately due to unforseen delays, we have had to modify the effective dates of the Copperhead coupon given out at QuakeCon. The coupon will now be available to use September 26th through October 7th at our online store, store.razerzone.com.

We thank you for your continued support and patience during this time.”

I would say it is a coupon they were giving at their booth at QuakeCon for ones who stopped… and it is likely a discount of some kind for the Copperhead… I was just pointing that perhaps it meant that the Copperhead will be available around Sept 26th… would be a nice thing for me to get my my bday a couple days later

Ok- I’ve ordered my Copperhead- and once it arrives, I expect to be a dynamo killing machine. HaHa!

Seriously though, Razerguy, you’ve gotten my heart aflutter with your “upcoming Tarantula keyboard and the Piranha headset (additional information to come on both of these new products soon)” statement above. WHEN?? *impatient female look that men hate*

I note that you seem to be sidling up to the same advertisers as Speed Link (Medusa 5.1 headset) – could you comment whether the Piranha will have similiar design/features? How about some specs on the Tarantula – will it be lighted? what will be special about it? I’m in the market for both of these items and HATE the thought of buying something inferior if Lazer is going to be introducing something in the near future.

Looking forward to ALL with great anticipation!

hey, like the Y.A i tried to order one on the 26th but it said sold out, but tonight its back for sale in the store… so i bought one. What does this mean? Do you have any in stock or is this pre-ordering for the next shipment because the description still says “first edition”??

Sure go ahead and ask

Sorry couldn’t resist that one. If you are referring to the Copperhead it is in stock at this moment (September 30, 2005).

Razerguy, which is better for controlling with Copperhead Mantis Mat or eXactMat
Thanks.
