Apple Redefines the Quintessential Mouse
Until very recently I was avowed Windows users and of course that means I am used to the stalwart two-button mouse with the now essential scroll wheel for navigating those ever lengthy web pages. So, when I cracked open my new Apple iMac 21.5” Desktop Computer I was taken aback by the Apple Magic Mouse contained therein. After all there are no buttons, no back and forward buttons, no scroll wheel; how was I supposed to use this small white wireless mouse? Very well as it turns out.
The Apple Magic Mouse
The slim Apple Magic Mouse is a multi-touch (laser) input device that found it beginning with the iPhone and represents the world’s first Multi-Touch mouse. The device is now standard with all new iMac’s and communicates with the computer via Bluetooth wireless technology.
First Impressions:
It took me all of a few hours to get used to the Apple Magic Mouse and I love the thing now. And I have to wonder why can’t my Windows mouse do what this little intuitive white mouse can do? To be sure some of the mouse’s basic functionality mirrors that of a traditional mouse; e.g. right-click to bring up a menu, single and double-clicking to launch programs.
But that is where the comparison ends. I love the Multi-touch technology built into the mouse; the effortless on finger scrolling up and down a page, the double finger swipe that allows me to switch from my full-screen Windows 7 Virtual Machine (VM) to the iMac desktop and back again, and the single finger swipes that allow me to move back and forth through web pages.
Surprisingly the Apple Magic Mouse’s shape was not an issue for me. The mouse fits nicely in my palm; it is just the right length and width. All surfaces are nicely rounded and the mouse feels comfortable even after hours of continual use.
There are some issue with automatic scrolling however, that is the web page will start scrolling without any gesturing or finger movements at all on my part. That can be very annoying if I am trying to concentrate on one area of the page. But overall I am very satisfied with the Apple Magic Mouse.

Apple MB829LL/A Magic Mouse
The new Magic Mouse redefines what a mouse should do. In addition to its smooth, seamless top-shell design that acts as one button or two, Magic Mouse features a Multi-Touch surface with gesture support. Scroll vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, a full 360 degrees, simply by touching anywhere on the top surface. With a greater surface area for scrolling, you can get around a long timeline in iMovie, through a lengthy web page in Safari, or around a set of images in iPhoto more efficiently. You can also swipe through pages in Safari or photos in iPhoto with two fingers. It's the most advanced Apple mouse ever made. The seamless, one-button design of Magic Mouse makes it simple to use right out of the box. But if you want the functionality of a two-button mouse, that's easy, too. Just change the configuration in System Preferences. And the ambidextrous construction means Magic Mouse is great for lefties or righties. Magic Mouse features a laser-tracking engine that's far more sensitive and responsive on more surfaces than traditional optical technology. That means it can track with precision on nearly every surface with no mouse pad required. Magic Mouse works wirelessly with your Bluetooth- enabled Mac. When you combine it with the Apple Wireless Keyboard, the result is an untethered and uncluttered workspace. Once you pair Magic Mouse with your Mac, you can enjoy a secure and reliable connection from up to 33 feet away.
