IME 1.1 SS.
It’s finally here. Later than I had anticipated, but ehmn.. #%!& happens.




The last photo illustrates the difference between a 1.1, 1.1 SE and 1.1 SS. It’s all about the feel really. The glossy shiny surface provides better grip, which is why we decided to do this special limited edition of the mouse.
If you have no idea why one surface is better than the other, this product is absolutely not for you. Save your coin for something else. ;-)
If it is something care about, I advice you to be fast - our stock is very limited (few hundred units). The mouse will be up on our shop at SteelSeries.com later today. First come, first served.

Only in Steelseries onlineshop ? Or will it goes around the World ?
November 17th, 2006 16:46
Will there be new “Categorie” under “online shop” or where is it gonna be:D?
November 17th, 2006 16:49
What about the prize?
November 17th, 2006 17:08
Yiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiah.. i’ve just bought mine.. damn i’m looking forward to have it in my hands.
for you guys - you can find it under ‘Bundles’.
November 17th, 2006 19:03
no single ones left, so i just bought a 5l bundle :D
November 17th, 2006 20:30
nice!
November 17th, 2006 23:16
The are already out of stock
November 18th, 2006 07:45
Can I buy whit my credit card and u send me one to Argentina ?
November 18th, 2006 08:05
I thought you said it wasn’t gonna be that expensive.. $54.95 with skates, take off $4.95 for the skates, that leaves the mouse to be $50. I think i’ll just stay with my 1.1a black
November 18th, 2006 09:59
#9, I guess “expensive” is a personal opinion. I don’t really find 50$ to be expensive - you can find much more expensive mice on the market today. And if you are happy with the current mouse, then there is no reason whatsoever to buy this.
#8, the shop page will inform you about payment/delivery once you start the ordering process.

It would be super if they made the 3.0 with that flashy gloss paint job!
November 18th, 2006 23:23
er, y is it possible to add a bundle product which is stated SOLD OUT! into my basket? will i still get the stuff?
November 19th, 2006 00:20
Hmm, the first picture looked very familiar. It reminded me of the inside of Danmarksdesignskole… Turns out it IS in KBH and rather close to the school, too ;) In fact I passed through ryesgade on the way…
relevancy of this comment : n/a
November 19th, 2006 20:55
i want the 1.1 Special Edition and the S&S packet
November 20th, 2006 01:34
Actually 50$ for a 1.1 is rather expensive, knowing that the 3.0 that is 10x better is 40$ max and the normal 1.1 is 15$ :)
November 20th, 2006 11:02
Again, it all boils down to definitions. The 3.0 is not 10 times better to me, quite the opposite (I think its way too big). And I am guessing that its probably not 10 times better to people who are using their left hand.
You might find this expensive, I don’t. Definitions. :)
November 20th, 2006 13:56
well i find it rather cheap, cause’ i considered to give 150$ for a 1.1 SE.
November 20th, 2006 21:32
#17 You don’t see anyone charging people one million for a fake Rembrandt, do you :)?
1.1SS is merely a painted 1.1a, not a 1.1SE.
November 20th, 2006 21:36
There is nothing fake about this product - if you don’t like it, don’t buy it. I think I pretty much said the exact same thing in the above blog post.
November 20th, 2006 22:17
#16 it isn’t a question of definitions. ok I may expressed myself in a wrong way, but you got the point. the 3.0 and the SE were in the same condition: only found used and very expensive. Both have a new version, the 3.0 2nd edition and the 1.1SS, and the price differs 15$ from each. The 1.1SS is a modded version of the 1.1, which costs 15$. So we are paying 35$ for a paint job? No thank you, I’ll stick with my modded 1.1 that costed me 15$+10$. Attention I have nothing against Steelseries or its affiliates, I just don’t agree on the price which in my opinion is an abuse towards the innocent buyer.
November 20th, 2006 22:28
And, just to sort of finish this, that is cool. There are plenty of guides on the internet that offers help and insight into how you can mod this mouse yourself - one of them even written by #18: http://www.cadred.org/v2/?p=articles&id=569.
If modding is not something you want to do, here is an alternative for you. Simple as that.
November 21st, 2006 01:57
Will there be more bundles with 1.1 SS + Padsurfers ??
November 21st, 2006 12:09
#20 its already sold out?
the people who is buying it, knows what they are buying.
i myself have modded my regular 1.1, but i rather want to pay 35$ for some pro’s to do it, because frankly i did a terribly job :P
and since i also want to support steelseries i find it to be a good offer.
November 22nd, 2006 03:41
I personally agree with #20
but I can still see why people are still buying it. I can’t afford this so I will try to wait to see if price drops or if I can get one used or something
November 22nd, 2006 13:50
I was pleasantly surprised this morning as my 1.1SS came through the post, I actually ordered it while it said it was “sold out”, I guess i got lucky :) (1.1SS with padsurfers)
I was wondering about the feet which are already on the 1.1SS, are these the same as the padsurfers? Just wondering when/if i should apply the padsurfers as they feel very similar to the ones already on the mouse.
November 22nd, 2006 15:41
#25
imo you should juse them until they are bad, then take them off and put on those other padsurfers.
December 2nd, 2006 21:02
#19 I shouldn’t have used the word ‘fake’, I just ment that an 1.1SE represents somekind of another value than just what it is, due to its rareness and such - just to clarify it for the person before who evenly compared the 1.1SS to an 1.1SE.
Of course not many would care, but to me it’s about the little details such as the black wire, the black scrollwheel and the rubberish sidebuttons on the 1.1SE, which you don’t find on the 1.1SS :)
I respect your work, an awesome job you did there on the 1.1SS, and I don’t see nothing wrong with the price.
December 5th, 2006 06:46
when will more 1.1 SS be instock? all the current bundles are sold out.
December 9th, 2006 21:49

I think >never
December 11th, 2006 14:52
I just won the mouse a qck heavy pad, 6g keyboard and 4h headphones. muhahaha!
December 14th, 2006 21:26
man, f*** … just too late … I just love the 1.1 - there’s no other mice for me anymore, after trying the whole logitec pallet a.s.o. there’s nothing better fittig in my hand.
Therefore I’m a kind of enthusiast to the 1.1 - I also tried to get a SE, without success ;-)
So this edition looks real nice - simply a must-have.
Because of the fact that there are no technical differences between the 1.1, 1.1a, 1.1 SE and 1.1 SS, this is in my eyes the greatest of all.
So, is there another amount coming up nearly?

this mouse got an HUGE commercial potential toward the gamers cause lot of them (like me) still prefer an 1.1 intellimouse to play their games even for competition.
It would be awesome from steelseries to produce this mouse once again.
You can be sure to sell them.
thx
September 18th, 2007 00:28
francoisL: You’re still able to get a hold of the IMO 1.1 SS from time to time. We still receive this mouse in small quantities in our webshop at www.SteelSeries.com. Keep updated and I promise it will be available again.
If you don’t have the patience I hear it’s a popular item at Ebay ;-)
