 - Nice idea, but needs some more work. Overall Apple's Mighty Mouse is a sturdy built piece of equipment; that well suited well for anyone who wants a simple mouse to take on the road. The built-in bluetooth technology makes this product very convenient; I would open my Macbook, flip the switch on the bottom of the mouse and within seconds the mouse would be ready to use. Battery life in incredible, I have owned this mouse for over a year and changed the batteries twice. But, on the other hand the mouse does have its flaws. The top of the mouse is made up of a solid piece of plastic with sensors underneath each side to determine if your making a right or left click, unlike other mouses which have 2 separate buttons for left and right clicking. While this is very innovative of Apple, it's not perfect, and I believe that technology needs more work. I found it really hard to use the right click feature, the sensor picked up my finger on the left, but not the right most of the time. When I had my Macbook on the road the mouse was very helpful because I did a lot of internet browsing where I wasn't using the right-click feature, but on the other hand at home when I was doing word processing and photo editing; mouse was very unhandy due to the touchy right-click feature. Also it would been nice to see Apple integrate a couple more buttons into this mouse; such as forward and back buttons for internet browsing. Overall I would recommend the Mighty Mouse, but to only to those who don't do a lot of right clicking. Rating:  - Stuck on this "mouse"The wireless "Mighty Mouse" with the scroll button wheel is terrific and worth the "bucks" to acquire it. It has all the features you could want and is easily modified to your specific requirements. The small scroll button has 360 degree control, and once you get use to it (like 2 minutes) you can't do without it. Being able to turn this unit "off" when not in use, extends the battery time considerably. No matter how proficient you become with pushing the cursor around with your fingers on the keyborard, you can't beat the "Mighty Mouse". My only negative comment is, why does an "In-Stock" item take Amazon 3-5 days to ship? Rating: - Good mouse, but trails LogitechThis mouse is great at tracking with its precise optical capability. I also have NOT had any problems in 6 months of use with its scrollball or with short battery life. Both have been perfect. My only slight problem is that it doesn't track as quickly, even at the fastest setting, as my Logitech mouse. Still, I like the bluetooth capability and the fact that I can easily turn the right side of the mouse into the secondary button if I go to Windows programs. Rating: - Great Design - Light TouchI replaced an 'old' wireless mouse with the new Mighty Mouse and I am impressed. The left/right click and side buttons work flawlessly and have been a great productivity booster. The mouse tracks very well. The little scroll button on the top takes some time getting used to. A light touch is required. Down, Left, Right scrolling work very well. Scrolling back up takes some work... but after you get used to it - not too bad. I wouldn't trade back as now I find a regular mouse limiting. Great design! Rating: - Overall, a great mouse.I'd been using a USB mouse for a long time with my Macbook Pro. Problem is, I eventually ran out of USB ports, and it drove me nuts. The mighty mouse was released, and I took a look. Overall, I love it. Everything from the scroll ball to the "invisible" buttons. It's just a very comfortable mouse to use that is also very functional. My one complaint would be that dirt gets into the scroll ball, and it's a pain to clean it out sometimes. I've googled, and found tips on how to clean it. Generally those work, but sometimes I never can get it clean.
