COPPERHEAD(tm) NOW AVAILABLE
Razer’s newest pet slithers into retail
San Diego – October 4, 2005 – Razer, the world leader in high-end computer gaming peripherals, announced that their newest mouse, the Copperhead(tm), is available for purchase online at the Razer Web site, www.razerzone.com, at such online retailers NewEGG.com, GoGamer.com and Tigerdirect.com, and arrives in Best Buy stores mid-October. The Copperhead is available in three colors: Tempest Blue, Chaos Green and Anarchy Red, and carries an MSRP of $79.99.
Known for ultra-precise gaming peripherals like the award-winning Diamondback(tm) mouse, the Copperhead is the world’s most advanced gaming mouse, giving hardcore gamers precise tracking and accuracy, unprecedented speed and for the first time, built-in intelligence.
Powered by Razer Precision(tm) technology, the Copperhead’s laser sensor has a tracking precision of up to 2000 dpi. Its 16 bit data channel features 1000Hz Ultrapolling(tm) capabilities, and with a 1 millisecond response rate, provides gamers with lightning-quick response that can mean the difference between fragging vs. getting fragged in the heat of competition.
Using Razer Synapse(tm) technology, the Copperhead is also the only mouse to feature onboard memory capabilities. With 32KB of onboard memory gamers can carry up to five different personal configurations on the hardware itself, eliminating the need for constant installation of software drivers. The Copperhead also features seven programmable extra-large non-slip buttons for a firm, secure grip.
The Copperhead incorporates all the features that hardcore gamers have come to expect. Razer’s Always-On(tm) technology provides instantaneous response at all times during gameplay, since the laser sensor never powers down. Razer’s On-The-Fly Sensitivity(tm) adjustment software drivers provides gamers with smooth and controlled speed adjustments at all times, and like the Diamondback, the Copperhead allows users to adjust sensitivity settings for different game situations, and even within game environments.
The Copperhead is specially designed with ergonomic contours, large non-slip mouse buttons and a tactile response design to provide users with a firm, secure grip for even the most intense gameplay sessions. The Zero-Acoustic Ultra-Slick(tm) Teflon feet allow for friction-free motion over any surface.
