Is it just me, or have mice started getting smaller and smaller? I need a mouse that fits comfortably in my large hands. I just got a new Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse and it's a bit small for my hands and not very comfy. I don't want a wireless mouse again. I have tried them several times and just don't want them. I also don't want a mechanical/gaming mouse. Just a basic one.

So if anyone knows a good mouse that will fit comfy in my large hands could you please link me?

Price: Undecided.

Thanx.

Not a mouse suggestion but maybe a track pad would be more comfortable for someone with large hands?

Falls into the gaming mouse category I think but personally went for a RAT 7 myself just because of its flexibility; you can adjust its weight, the mouse can be made longer, comes with three adjustable thumb grips, three pinkie grips, tweak it a bit and it's comfortable as all hell, build is very solid too.

The Microsoft Sidewinder X8 is a monster of a mouse, I used to have one, I have the Logitech G500 currently and it's fairly sizable.

I like Logitech. Is it possible to disable the extra buttons on the G500? I don't want to accidently bump them and cause unexpected results.

I have 2 of those. Both are now worn out, but were a wee bit small for my hands. But not too bad. Guess I could just stick with that though.
