Came back to see if aiming is fixed
CCP did just what I expected:
Nothing
CCP shouldn't really get into first person shooters if they can't even code the aiming right (After closed beta, open beta, and more than a month into release).
Rei Shepard - your friends PS3, same version firmware? Same mouse? I suspect it has something to do with the USB ports |

I don't think the PS3 firmware is auto-updated, is it? But I think that might be irrelevant.
Here is something more interesting: you said your friend were using a cheap mouse which were fine. This is not something new (cheap mouses performs better in Dust than expensive mouses).
I think the mouse lag must be partially caused by a complex USB problem: polling rate.
The PS3 supports 1000hz polling but the sixaxis controller operates at 100hz. (sauce)
Now imagine different mouses with different rates are converted into a virtual sixaxis 100hz in order for the game to react accordingly. A cheap mouse with slow poll rate (perhaps 125hz?) might actually synchronize better with the 100hz virtual joystick (that the game reads) better than a 500hz or 1000hz mouse. I don't know the technical details but I wonder if the game would "drop packets" in the translation of mouse to virtual joystick. Imagine if some of the reports are dropped by the game if you are using an expensive 1000hz mouse, the result could be choppy movements and inconsistent speeds etc. Sounds familiar? Now I must admit I know little about the actual technicalities of USBs or how Dust utilizes the USB ports, so these are all speculations.
Some interesting stuff I just came across: (semi-relevant)

In other news, aiming fixes aren't coming in 1.2.

Also, isn't funny that CCP has abandoned this thread already. Weeks without any update, it's like they have given up.
