Does anyone who uses the M95 have (or had) any issues with it? I am in the market for a new gaming mouse (mainly MMO use) and have decided on the M95 or G600 from Logitech. My concern is with the M95, are ALL the thumb buttoms customizeable? Are any locked to profile / DPI setting switches on the fly? I prefer all my thumb buttons to be used ONLY or my action bars in game. I have the CM strom inferno, and it just is not enough for MMOs. I found two buttons on the inferno (one a thumb button) unable to be changed to a keybind. That bothered me, as I intended to use them when I got it from the store lol. I also wanted to use the Naga molten edition, but I have learned enough from bad reviews about the double clicking issue, and prefer to have a mouse operational for more than a year lol. So, my main question is, are ALL the thumb buttons on the M95 able to be used for inagme abalities?

ALSO, would anyone suggest the Naga molten or G600 OVER the M95, and if so, why?

Yeah just got an M95 a few days ago actually. So here's the deal: it's a decent mouse overall, but it might take some getting used to depending on your hand size and games you play. It's a big mouse, and kind of heavy. In answer to your question, yes all buttons can be reassigned. However, just keep in mind that the software is not terribly user-friendly or intuitive. My experience with the mouse is that it's not very comfortable for my hands, and the buttons don't work that well for FPS games, due to how how they are placed on the mouse. It makes it so the mouse sometimes slides when I press a button. However, I'd assume that it would work fine for mmo's, since aiming and reflexes aren't as much of a priority. In summary, the mouse is good with a few flaws, but the software could really use an upgrade.

I have had an M95 for a few months now. A ton of people rightfully complain about the software, but all you have to do is make sure HARDWARE PLAYBACK is checked and then go to the led assignments page, click one, and click "Save to M95" then all the settings are pushed to the mouse. I use this game for everything from work as a software engineer in my IDE's and FPS and RPG games. I have big hands, (I play hockey) so this mouse is great for me. All the buttons can have a larrrrge macro assigned to them with every step a variable length timing... There are many functions that this mouse can play. The feet so far seem to be very durable if on a good surface. I would recommend the M95 to anyone. I cannot, however, speak to the other mice mentioned.

EDIT: I found a very informative link for the M95:
