I've been using this with my 17" Al PB for a while now. Picked it up from PC Express 2 yrs. ago. Forgot how much it costs.
MouseMan® Traveler™
Mac • Optical • Scroll wheel • USB

Checked PCExpress website, it's listed at P 2,250.00

Another (cheaper) option is the Logitech Mini Optical Mouse. P1,450 from PC Express. Doesn't look half as cool as the Mouseman Traveler though. :-)

Wow! Thanks for the replies!
Ok im thinking of the logitech mini optical mouse... since its cheaper. Regarding the apple mouse, the buttons are at opposite sides? so you can't double click things?

any usb mouse will do, preferably the optical ones. pero why not get the apple mouse na lang? i'm using one for quite a while now, bring it everyweek sa province and so far wala naman problema even if i kept it together with my powercables.

Actually, the Apple Pro Mouse only has one button. The whole mouse itself acts like one humongous button. :-) No problems with double-clicking but there's no right mouse button for right-clicking on stuff to bring up contextual menus (you'll need to press Option-click for that).Originally posted by Jumbo

I use the Targus Micro Mini Mouse with retractable cord. Its silver and matches the powerbook. Its also very handy as well. You just have to get used to its size though.

The Apple Bluetooth Mouse is durable enough. It's patterned after the Apple Mouse yet is surprisingly small without the wires.
There seems to be a prevalent problem with the Apple Mouse here in our school. The wire, right at he point where it enters the mouse enclosure, get's loose after multiple extended use by kids. Once it's loose, it basically kills the mouse.

If you don't mind spending for a bluetooth mouse, I would highly recommend the Bluetake Bluetooth BT500 mouse. Got it in HK sometime back, but it's also available at www.radtech.us -same store that sells Powersleevz.
The fact that it's really really small, bluetooth-enabled, and has a scroll wheel make it a greeaat mouse!

The Apple mouse is good to look at but not that reasonable in terms of its price/performance ratio... (ayos ha mouse lang)
I need the right click thing....
For my portable I've been using a cheap but reliable mini-optical A4 tech mouse
Comes in different colors plus it glows.
Got the silver one with blue color to match the Albook. I remember I got it around Php 600+
