I like the sniper button. The rest is just fluff.

I agree to a degree it is alot of fluff. But there are other gaming level mice that are guilty of extra fluff. Exception being maybe the Steel Series mice. But. there are reasons i like this one.
1. there will be a wireless version
2. it has modes, so there is a possibility of up to 15 buttons i think it said
3. yes it has the nifty DPI reducing sniper button.
So if im going to be dropping over $100 for a mouse ( which i woudl if i were to get the Naga) why not get one that looks cool too..

The sniper button is kinda cool...but it only has 2 programmable thumb-buttons, programmable L/R, & programmable Scroll-Click. That's a total of only 5 buttons...unless you like the idea of figuring out which "scheme" you're in at the time.
I suppose if you're a mouse-leaner, it might be nice to get one which you can adjust to your hand. If you're a mouse-gripper, then all of that adjustment is pointless, imo, since both your thumb & ring fingers are quite adjustable already. There also aren't any ridges to assist you in gripping the mouse.
It appears that their design is predicated upon the idea that some people actually make sweet love to their mice using the palms of their hands & use their elbows to control the mouse as they try to overcome the friction of about 10-15lbs pushing down upon the mouse. I'm pretty certain that most of us place our wrists upon our mousepads, then grip our mice using our thumb & ring fingers while using a combination of wrist & finger movements to control our mice while putting almost no additional weight upon the mice.
But hey...like I said, the adjustment could be kinda cool if your hand is lazy & you make your elbow do all the work.
