I have a n52 (original version), and I must say, as nice and useful as it is, I never found a Guild Wars Setup with it that I liked.
Additionally, I've heard through the grapevine that the Tournament Edition is not as high-quality in construction as the original.
I've transitioned over to a Wolf King Warrior game pad, which is effectively the left side of a keyboard cut off and reshaped to be comfortable for your left hand. It's lasted me about 3 years now with no trouble. The n52 has lasted a long time too, but it's spent most of it in a drawer.

I bought the n52te about a year ago. Its ok, but I just don't find much use for it for Guild Wars. There's a TON of complaints about the n52te's direction pad. The diagonals do not work as they are suppose to. There has been a promise of a fix for well over a year, but not much is released in firmware or drivers. You might want to read through some of the complaints here: http://www.n52te.com/community/ I don't regret buying it, although if I had waited longer I would have bought the Logitech version G13 Advanced Gameboard http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/ke.../5123&cl=us,en It doesn't look as comfortable as the n52, but it is better supported.
