    Two G5s since christmas that take a healthy beating and neither have the problem....but I wouldn't expect it yet!

    My friend did have a G7 with the double click problem after a year and a half.

    My bro's G5 randomly stopped working when he plugged it in one time. Totally dead. No idea what happened.

    But he's also very hard on wires and such, wouldn't surprise me if he did something to it

    Killed the left click on 2 518's, and the left side scroll on first g5, replacement g5 is giving me some slight left side scroll issues also; needs to be warmed up before it works consistently. The nice thing is that Logitech stands behind their stuff, call them and a replacement will be on your door step before the end of the week.

    Both my 510's are great still, used them so much I wore the bases perfectly flat (feet and hard plastic the feet go on are GONE).

    Also have a 518 still going..
