A glass mouse pad hmmm, different that's for sure.
It came all the way from Denmark to central Minnesota, USA and its still it one piece.
I was impressed already by the packaging of this product.
At first look of the pad I turned it over it has 6 little silicon feet to hold it in place. The surface is glass very smooth.
And there is a nice black coloring inside the glass very cool looking.
On to testing I thought that this smooth surface would be great for my old Intel ball mouse so I hooked it up.
I was impressed by the tracking of the ball it stops when I did, this is not the case on some of the other pads I have tried with ball style mice.
Next I hooked my Logitech optic mouse and tried it.
It worked ok but I soon found my self wanting my 4d steel pad back.
The main reason I think was the sound the pad makes and the feel of it, its also cold to touch.
Adding the Included teflon tape to mouse helped some for the sound.

If you use a ball style mouse go now and get this very cool pad.
