Razer Armadillo

Rob Williams · 07-20-2006, 07:27 PM

Are you a serious gamer? Does your mouse cord ever get in the way of your perfect kill? Razer believes that they have come up with the ultimate solution, and it's name? The Armadillo.

Read Gregs look at the Armadillo here and discuss it here!

Oh come on... the lil gaelic keltic triangle thing on the top with snakes coming out of it clearly makes it worth $20... ... ... ??? wtf

I mean it does look cool. I just found it to be absolutly pointless. Like I said, I would be a bit more receptive to it if it was bundled in with their high end mouse...the copperhead. Then, under the perception that it was "free", I might appreciate it but stand alone $20. No thank you.

The score was not a knock at razer either. I loved the copperhead and the krait as well. I did have some complaints but over all, they were both nice mice. But don't tell me that I need a f*ckin' weight to hold the cord in place.

My son says "$20!! for $20 I could just tape the cord down to a rock, and $20 would buy a lot of tape!"

Your son is now my hero for all of next week. He is even getting the rest of this week!

funny stuff

LMAO!

I may make a comment about this next time I run with the team.

I actually had the problem of the mouse cord getting all tangled up behind the desk and pulling on it badly. I just set the cord under the lip of the monitor. Works great.

LOL that's the best thing I've heard in ages!

Looks very cool... but it's definitly not worth it!

IN your article you mention that the price might be a bit steep especially when there are other cheaper products.

Can you suggest any (besides the rock & tape)?

I'd be interested in more reasonably priced cable management for my mouse.

Thank you,
