Re: Mighty Mouse?!
Damn good, I needed a new mouse. And now PC users can't slag us for only having a one button mouse, as we've got better mice than them... :-D
Do they come with new macs tho?
Use Windows XP twice a day, so you can see how unbelievably crap it is compared to OS X, and Windows Vista - what a joke...

You so beat me to it! I just got home from a meeting, checked out the Apple site, and thought, "Holy smurf...hell has truly frozen over! A multi-button mouse!"

Re: Mighty Mouse?!
Great mouse, to bad I can't use anything other then a MS Explorer Mouse. Those mice just work perfect for my hand. The Apple Mice are just too small for my hand to be comfy. However, it would be great for my laptop.

Re: Mighty Mouse?!
I'm VERY glad that new Macs ship with a one-button mouse. I accept that Apple's making a multi-button mouse as long as new Macs still remain single-button. Apps need to stay single-button functional.
I wish it had a third click though, for Shake. I guess the side buttons work.
I'm buying one today if we have them in stock.

I don't like it, but I still want to see one in person to finalize that opinion.

Re: Mighty Mouse?!
So, this year we've seen...
a) a reasonably priced mac without a mouse and keyboard,
b) a move to an industry standard processor architecture,
c) AND a multibutton mouse.
We've been complaining about the lack of this stuff for years... now what are we supposed to do?
Should we bitch about those scratch prone iPod cases?

Oh, it does have a third button. Brilliant.
I hate the idea of a multi-button mouse but dammit, the RDF has me.
