Does the space mouse Pro Wireless have a noticeable lag as opposed the the wired version?

I see zero lag when using my Wireless Space Mouse. I do not believe I have the "Pro" version, just the regular one. I do have a very fast Wireless NIC card in both my laptops though.

None that I have noticed. Been rock solid for me.

I have both the Spacemouse Pro wireless and a Spacepilot Pro. Both function the same, no lag from the wireless one. The only thing I will tell you about the wireless one is to make sure you turn it off when you put it away. I forgot one time and couldn't for the life of me figure out why when I pulled out my laptop next that every file I opened the model just shot off the screen. Took me longer than I care to admit before I figured it out.

Yes,

 

I bought 2 and liked them a lot, but..

After about 12 months of 10hr days at work the left button was getting noisy and required more and more effort to

click it.

I was a very early adopter and my hope was there were issues with the first production run that had been solved

.

I emailed 3D Connexion Customer Support about it, but never received a reply.. so I'm back running

a Logitech mouse... a wireless G900... it was way too expensive, but it's hands down the best mouse I've ever used.

Gcode when did you contact them. I know a lot of them took a few weeks off for the holidays.

They will be at Solidworks World next month at the Anahiem convention center.

Anybody got the cad mouse from 3D Connections?

I have a few of them and one on my desk for over a year and have not had any issues that Gcode speaks of.

I have had both in the office and found none. So for my front counter and big screen I have the wireless as the default.

I don't have an email address for their support

I submitted a customer support request form twice on their Support Webpage,

Once last summer and again in the fall

No reply either time.

At this point, it's not a big deal.. I've moved on
