Back on track
As some of you might know, we acquired Canadian based Ideazon (most commonly known for the line of Zboard keyboards) a couple of months ago. Along with an acquisition comes a hell of a lot work – hard, but enjoyable and exciting work. Add this to the undermanned summer period and we’re pretty much back to when we last updated this blog.
In order to get things straight, I’m going to run over a few things that has happened since we last showed sign of life here:
1. Our little, precious piece of ultimate MMO hardware, the World of Warcraft® MMO Gaming Mouse, showed its curves and features to the public last weekend in our booth at BlizzCon 2008.
More pictures and info about this baby as well as our newly announced WotLK gaming gear is available here – oh yeah, and pre-order is possible.
2. We announced partnerships with two of the most successful, professional gaming organizations, Fnatic and MYM.
The MYM Counter-Strike 1.6 team.
3. The Siberia full-size headset got in touch with it’s feminine side and is now available in the pink iron.lady edition as well as a sharp, eye-catching red.

4. Well - it’s not all supposed to be about us. Turning the spotlight to the professional teams we work with, I think it’s worth mentioning that Nihilum Plasma took home gold at the BlizzCon 2008 WoW PvP Championships and the neat prize of $75.000. At the same event, SK.Lyn also secured the $25.000 1st place in the WC3 tournament.

The weekend before, SK Gaming took 1st in the ESL Extreme Masters III Global Challenge for $25.000, Fnatic Orz won the MLG Dallas WoW PvP event for $12.000 and finally WC3 players from MYM, Mousesports and SK Gaming held up the final top4 spots in the NiceGameTV League which offered a $20.000 prize purse.
