When I saw the name I thought Salmonella and it stuck me as odd for some reason...anyway, seems like a nice mouse though I'm not sure about the price point.

3 buttons... #-o

One thing I wish they would do on their other mice is make the side buttons go up the side instead of along the side. My opposable thumb goes up and down more naturally than forward and back...

Mine does too! Hey, if more people have their thumbs going up and down, then Logitec and the rest should take you input very seriously. :-k

Excellent idea!
