I use the exact same setup (but using belkin n52te, before it became Razer's Nostromo) with the button layout on screen. Just like Steppinrazor, I use mod keys, but not the same way. I use the big thumb button as jump (useful for jump disengage) and the small round button above the 4way pad as ctrl mod. My Naga is mapped to numpad keys and the nostromo to F-keys and numbers, with one of those top right buttons as tab and the other as shift mod.

This way, i have 2 complete sets of bars without mod, 2 sets with ctrl mod and a couple of keys with shift (shift plus numpad doesnt work so well....) and by using Bartender4, i show only the appropriate actionbar corresponding to the mod key I'm using.

I don't think i would eb able to go back to mouse and keyboard only and you get used to 4way thumb movement astonishingly fast. just bind it to left right up down keys and keybind left and right to strafe (who needs to keyboard turn anyway) and you're good to go with all the strafing action you want.

It's something to try for sure!
