I had to send mine back to eBuyer cos the right button broke recently.
Got a new one within the week.

And do you actually use the forward and back buttons?
A wire means no batterys, and who cares about a precise thingamie, as you probably wont tell the difference?

I had an MS mouse with forwards and back buttons, and they only rarely got used.  I usually have a hand on the keyboard, so its never a biggy to press the backspace button.

i use all of the buttons on my MX1000 and all the ways on the scroll wheel

dont like MS mice, never have never will, the mx1000 fits my hand perfectly and does everything i want, can also handle the surface im using it on where other optical mice stall

Forward and back buttons come in great use in games, and I used to use them all the time when web browsing.
