You’re going to have to dig deep into your pockets if you want to buy the limited edition Razer Boomslang Collector’s Edition 2007.
The Boomslang 2007 is a re-issue of the original popular design, but with tweaked hardware under the skin. Using the same sensor as featured in the Deathadder and Diamondback, it comes in a titanium effect case and is limited to 10,000 units worldwide. It comes in a very smart case, with a numbered plaque identifying it as one of the 10,000.
The price for such exclusivity? Razer are asking $99 in their online store, which is a big premium over the two mice with which it shares it’s hardware. The Diamondback 3G is available for half the price, at $49.99, yet offers seven buttons to the Boomslang’s five. The Deathadder is $59.99 with five programmable buttons.
As a gaming mouse I doubt very much that it’s worth the extra money. However, if a fancy box is what you want and you can get your hands on one you’ll be in a pretty exclusive group.

- 1800dpi Razer Precision™ 3G infrared sensor
