I personally haven't used a R.A.T. 3 but I do own a R.A.T. 7. All I can say about this brand is that it is very reliable and durable.

I also own a RAT7,here are my 2 issues with it



the way I hold it,my ring finger rubs against the semi-sharp edge on the right button,whic irritated my finger all the time



I prefer the tilt scroll wheel on my logitech mouse over the thumb scroll on this thing

I've never heard of the R.A.T. 3, just the 5, 7 and 9. From what I've read, the 7 is the most customizable, and the 9 is a wireless version of the exact same thing. The 5 is less customizable than the 7/9, so I would assume the 3 is even less adjustable than that. Doesn't that sort of beat the purpose of the R.A.T. series?

I saw a RAT3 in my local nerd shop once. It looks the same, so I guess it's for people who like the look of the RAT series but can't stretch for the 5/7.



AFAIK it's non-adjustable: http://www.dabs.com/products/saitek-...ouse-75M3.html

So yeah, kind of pointless as far as the RAT series is concerned. But many will buy on looks alone I'm sure.



I would say, given my general experience with Saitek products, that I'd much more trust an entry-level Logitech / Microsoft product than one from Saitek/Mad Catz.

Not adjustable at all? I thought that was the entire point of the R.A.T. series. >_<
