Right now I'm using a Logitech MX510. This beauty has no less than eight total buttons:
(1) Left and (2) Right primary, (3) "Up" which I've bound to home, (5) "Down" which I've bound to end, (4) scroll wheel click. I do not even know if this counts as a button properly. (6) Some sorta minimize button which I've rebound to TILDE ` (7) back and (8) forward.
Needless to say I am hopelessly addicted to all of these buttons. In fact, if anything, I would like MORE buttons to work with. I am button CRAZY.
Problem is that the VAST majority of meese out there have maybe five buttons max. Instead of more glorious buttons, modern mooses feature things like sideways scrolling scrollwheels, a feature that I find completely retarded. Some of them have these little rings that the scroll wheel is nested in that seem to act as buttons. Are they? I cannot tell.
Even enthusiast gaming mousen seem to have abandoned the glory of excessive buttoning in favor of stupid and totally useless things like ADJUSTABLE WEIGHT CARTRIDGES and ON-THE-FLY ADJUSTABLE DPI!!! Holy shit! Features that I would NEVER, EVER USE!!
So far, my prime candidate for a replacement is... the MX-518... duh. But even it still only has 8 buttons. I NEED MORE BUTTONS.
I submit this challenge to all who would dare: Find me a mouse with as many buttons as possible. Winners get a blowjob.

Edit: it's got horizontal scroll, which you might be able to bind to do other things. That'd be 10 buttons. Damnati fucked around with this message on 10-17-2006 at 07:34 PM.

I'm guessing the MX1000 falls into the stupidly expensive category?
Certainly not. It's got one of those nested wheel button thingies though. I couldn't tell if those were actually buttons or some kind of rocker or something.
Frankly I don't see much gain in this over the MX-518.

The MX1000 is no longer the top Logitech mouse. I just recently got the Logitech MX Revolution I really like the mouse wheel, it's weighted and has the normal click to it, but after a few spins of the wheel the wheel "free wheels" and lets you get to the bottom of a page or spreadsheet pretty quickly. The thumb wheel is nice for switching windows. The center button is now a quick button to open a search engine. I really like it a lot for gaming and for work. This replaces my MX700 that went tits up a couple weeks ago.
That has two fewer buttons though. The thumb wheel is... neat, but I can't really see using it in a game for anything ever.
And I do not count wheelup and wheeldown to be discrete buttons 
So far the results have been highly disappointing! I was expecting someone to come up with a kind of MUTANT MEGA MOUSE with 16+ buttons! Maradon! fucked around with this message on 10-17-2006 at 08:57 PM.
Looks to be the same as yours with two more on the other side.
My mx700 was becoming retarded and they sent me an mx1000 since it was the newest model. I didn't even have to ship them the old one.
but this is pretty clearly the result of normal wear.
and I'm not a LIAR

Archangel has a mouse with a pair of scroll wheels. One is set to a slower scroll and one to faster; I don't get it but he says it's handy.

Those have less than 4 buttons...
It's shaped better than the 510, though it's hard to tell from pictures. Plus it's color scheme matches my G15 and Sony LCD monitor perfectly.
The MX1000 and Revolution were tempting, but I was having a hard time justifying spending 2x as much for a mouse that did not even have more buttons. Maradon! fucked around with this message on 10-19-2006 at 02:51 PM.

No shit.
Better yet, get an adapter. A whole 1 button. You will be grateful, or you will get the hose again.
This has long since been established.
Stop by my house any time you want to collect.
