i'm confused, wasn't this sold for 40 bucks a week ago? didn't that include both right-handed and abidextrious versions? whats the diff between the 8200 and the 7000?
xerowunThe 7000 series uses one of the best optical sensors currently available. It has no acceleration or prediction, where laser sensor like the 8200 series uses inherently have acceleration.

xerowunThe number designates the max DPI, so the 8200 is more "sensitive". The 7000 is the one to get though for the reasons stated by @Shaqo_Wyn. Most shoppers will be enticed by the bigger number and pay more anyways.
BloctopusNo you can't, it's inherently there. Pretty much all laser mice have some degree of acceleration as this is a characteristic of the laser technology used.
Whether it is that noticeable/distracting is somewhat of a subjective matter. Not everybody cares about their gaming mouse having a bit of acceleration, so it doesn't bother them. I on the other hand do and so does anyone who takes fps games seriously.
You rely on your muscle memory and the predictable behavior of your mouse in relation to your input to keep your accuracy on point. Acceleration messes with this.
Shaqo_WynIt is really a matter of getting used to it. I imagine most people using laser mice that would switch to a no-accel one, would feel very weird and you would need to relearn the muscle memory again.
DinxsyThe 8200 uses the Avago 9800 sensor that still exhibits non-linear positive acceleration and slight jitter. This is there inherently because of the sensor used, regardless of whether you can turn it on or off with the software.
