Razer, the leading manufacturer of high-end precision gaming and lifestyle electronic peripherals, announced today that the collector’s edition of the renowned Razer Boomslang™ will be showcased at DreamHack Summer 2007, Sweden from June 16 – 19 2007. Only 10,000 units of the Razer Boomslang CE will be produced, making it a highly sought after collectible.
The Razer Boomslang™ CE captures the spirit of the original while boasting a whole slew of upgrades from the initial Boomslang™ launched in 1999. The Boomslang CE now features a 5-button design with independently programmable Hyperesponse™ buttons, a 1800dpi 3G infrared sensor, with 1000Hz Ultrapolling™ / 1ms response, 32KB onboard memory powered by Razer Synapse™, and a 16-bit ultrawide data channel.
“Legions of fans wrote to us when production of the original Boomslang™ ceased in 2001, urging us to relaunch the iconic mouse. As a company known for keeping an ear to the ground and listening to the community, we revisited the Boomslang™ for a special collector’s edition,” said Robert “Razerguy” Krakoff, president of Razer. He continued, “Set in a titanium-finished case, each Razer Boomslang™ CE will be numbered, with its’ own collector’s card, in a sleek box and in its original tin packaging. It holds its own, if not more, against other gaming mice in the market, and will also provide that edge to competitive gamers seeking that something extra.”
Razer spared no expense giving the Boomslang™ CE the Razer ‘look and feel’ which gamers usually associate with any Razer product. Based around a black-on-black concept, the premium finish exudes class and screams sleek. The packaging is a mixture of stainless steel, the original tin now comes with a coat of black sand-blast paint, embossed chrome, gloss and matt.
