That's made for you and me?
M-I-G-H-T-Y M-O-U-S-E!


I just got mine today, and I must say, I'm lovin' it! This from a guy who's very trackpad oriented.

Got mine last night, so far so good... just need to keep reminding myself to lift my index finger most of the time to right click.

First impressions:

Button sensors
That sensors are fantastic. I'm thinking Segway here, the mouse senses which action you want to make (left, right or center click) although you are pressing down on the same button.

it doesn't take much to get used to, for me at least. It just worked outright.

Scroll ball
At first, i couldn't tell if the ball was rolling. But obviously, I could see it was working since the page in front of me was scrolling. In other words, it's much smoother than expected, which at first i didn't think was a good thing. In a matter of minutes though, I've gotten used to it. Vertical, horizontal, diagonal, I was able to get all these funtions working with greatest of ease.

There's a faint tactile feedback from the scrolling. The sound from the speaker is so faint, I have to place my ear beside the mouse to hear the clicking. I was hoping it would be as loud as on the iPod.

The Mighty Mouse is what one would expect from Apple. It's elegant and works as advertised. Sadly, I can't say the same for the cheap-looking packaging.

At $50, I feel it's a bargain.

I love the side buttons squeeze! What's pleasantly surprising is the less degree of effort it now takes to navigate. Once configured, it takes a bit of undoing some habits, and developing new ones.

Got mine as well. Like Elbert said, the touch sensitive buttons take some getting used to, but they actually work quite well– even in intense button mashing games like unreal tournament.

How about a Mighty Mouse on wheels? Ha ha, it's actually a wooden toy from a company called Playsam.
