Well, I don't know how much is it -- 12 bits across what ?  1 inch ?

Anyway, I must say that mouse is quite sensitive and I'd like to adjust 
it a bit as it's sometimes difficult to control.  However, I've no idea 
how to achieve this.  Any suggestions please ?

Well, I would expect "better" applications would allow to configure 
those extra buttons.
Anyway, it's a bit shame having these cool buttons with no way to use 
them. :-(
