Good Upgrade Choice.......2007-10-19
I had orginally planned to get a wireless mouse, or maybe even one of the fancier Logitech mouses (mice? ;-). I finally decided I didn't really need all the fancy "bells and whistles" and bought this mouse by Kensington.
I think it's a good choice if you want to upgrade from the standard mouse that comes with most computers. The footprint is only slightly larger than a standard mouse but it's quite a bit taller, which I like. I have medium sized hands for a guy. It was easy to install both the mouse and the included "Mouseworks" software (you will need to load the software if you want to reprogram the two extra buttons on the side of the mouse). The software also gives you a number of options in the use of the mouse (more than the standard ones that comes with Windows).
It feels good in the hand and I'm satisfied with the product. I particularly like the feel of the wheel. It's not perfect however; the two extra side button could have been placed just a little better for my use and the overall shape could have been better (I wish there was a slight "rest" for the fingers on the right side of the mouse). These are minor quibbles however.
The two side buttons comes programmed for "back" and "forward" for viewing webpages. I reprogrammed mine to "double click" and "back" and that's been useful.
I don't know how long the thing will last since I've only had mine a short time. It seems to be a well-made product and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to someone who's looking for a better basic mouse.
More than pleased!.......2007-10-18
A mouse is a mouse is a mouse is a mouse......or is it? I was apprehensive about getting something other than an Apple Mouse, but this Kensington mouse exceeded my expectations. It just has a good 'feel' to it. I like its design and the way it comfortably fits the hand. Kensington 72257 Ci20 Optical Mouse for PC or Mac
Great Mouse For The Money, Not For Diehard Gamers..........2007-10-03
After dropping over 40 bucks on a Logitech Mx518 which broke down after about a year, I did not want to spend a lot of money on a new mouse. After much "research" & reading the reviews here, I decided on the Kensington Ci20 (I was able to purchase mine for just over 20 bucks). The mouse is very responsive and has a great feel. This is primarily due to the rubber side grips and ergonomic shape. The Ci20 is larger than my "old" Logitech; consequently, it may not be a great choice for users with smaller hands. The mouse is responsive, but may not be "quick" & accurate enough for diehard gamers. If you are buying this as a gaming mouse, you may need to look elsewhere (I recommend the Razer Diamondback Acid Green). Even though the Logitech I used previously was buggy with my USB ports and the buttons gave out after about a year, it was much better for gaming than the Ci20. However, if you are not a dedicated gamer and are looking for a great mouse at a very reasonable price, the Ci20 is for you. I also would like to add the software is very easy to install, navigate and upgrade (unlike the Setpoint software from Logitech). Just plug it and and go. Overall one of the best mice I have ever used.
Great mouse!.......2007-06-16
I've been using Kensington products for over 13 years because of the quality, design and function.
This new mouse arrived last Wednesday and I'm glad I chose this particular mouse. The hand "fit" is perfect and the software allowing for any number of custom settings just adds to the value.
All of this plus a 5-year warranty? Simply amazing.
Best for the right-handed user.......2007-05-15
I got this mouse as a replacement for a Kensington PilotMouse which was the best mouse I ever used ---and wore out. Unfortunately, they don't make the pilotmouse any more and this one was the closest I could find. This mouse is advertised as being "optimized for right-hand use" and I am left handed. I am used to using right hand mouses but I admit I prefer a little less optimization which in this case means that the shape is a bit skewed and the extra buttons are on the wrong spot for me. If I were right handed, I rate this thing with five stars. As it is, four is all they get. What I like about the mouse; the size which just fits my hand, the responsiveness, and the rubber side grips. It also has a scroll wheel with just the right kind of tread. In my experience, it is important to make sure you don't use an optical mouse on a shiny surface as it seems to confuse them and this one is no different, but used on a matt surface, a blotter or even a taped-down sheet of typing paper it tracks beautifully.

Awesome controls!.......2007-11-25
What else can be said of this setup? I use it for Falcon and for both versions of Microsoft Flight Simulator. The ability to program functions into various switches makes the realistic ability of this controller far better than others that I have used, and much more real world. Face it. Software is taking over many manual tasks, even when rolling in hot on a bombing run. The ability to switch modes on the fly (pun intended) is awesome and makes the game far more fun.

Saitek X52 Pro Flight System Controller
I haven't had it long enough to get as much out of it as it is capable of doing.I have found that it is very smooth and makes the gaming experience much more enjoyable.I also have a two year old saitek evo force,and I miss the feedback in the new one. That's about the only thing I would add to the x52.Over all a very good investment.
Nice but...........2007-10-17
This joystick is a real piece of art. I just love it. Some parts are in plastic but the look and feel are just wonderful! Note that this joystick is BIG.
My only concern is that I received a black version instead of the grey showed in the image.
Trash.......2007-10-10
Pros:
It looked nice when I plugged it in. Thats all.
Cons:
The first stick I received none of the buttons worked on the stick. I spent 6hrs trying to get it to work different drivers, different computers same result.
I returned this stick to Amazon and they were very helpful and sent out a new one 2 days later.
I plugged in the second stick and the joystick lit up for a second then went dead. No response from the stick at all.
Saitek customer support is dismal and only suggest it is your problem or you can pay to ship it to them for repair.
In conclusion I am returning this for a CH Fighterstick they are built solid as a rock and will last for many years.
Poor Quality .......2007-09-20
I recently purchased the X52 Pro and I really liked the feel and looks of the product and when it worked it worked great , however after 3 days of light use the joystick button 1 and 6 stop responding along with the pov 1 and pov 2, it wouldn't pivot 360 degree's it would only pivot to 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock. Saitek support determined that the product was faulty and suggested that I return it for an exchange. I sent it back for replacement, well at least I got to use the replacement for 5 days and it stopped working also. I can't believe that this company is putting out such poor quality products. Go to the Saitek forum and do a search on X52 and you will find multiple issues with this product. I wish I had done that before I purchased mine. For the price they charge for this product you would think that it would be better quality. But then again, it's made in china. Make sure you do some research before you buy this product, it may save you some headache down the road. The only positive thing about the purchase is that Amazon was really great in exchanging the product and refunding my purchase.
