Apple Magic Mouse

Apple Magic Mouse doesn’t have anything on its surface. It’s an aluminum base topped off with a smooth multitouch panel. It felt weird to use, but leagues ahead of the Mighty Mouse. I may go back to mice. Allows you to interact with all Windows on your machine. At the click of a button Windows can be moved, enabled, disabled or hidden.

The strange thing about the Magic Mouse is not how it works. The Multi-Touch area covers the top surface of Magic Mouse, and the mouse itself is the button. Don’t be held back by those diabled buttons. You can also scroll with two or three fingers, if you move them up and down. But if you swipe them from side to side while using a web browser, your browsing history moves forward or back.

You can use Magic Mouse to move resources in dialogs instantly. Simply ‘pick up’ the control and watch it move, invaluable for developers to preview a change quickly. Inside Magic Mouse is a chip that tells it exactly what you want to do.

Scroll in any direction with one finger, swipe through web pages and photos with two, and click and double-click anywhere. The mouse runs on AA batteries, and Apple claims 4 months of use per set. You can get it with the new iMac or pay $69 separately.
