Mighty Mouse

One of the problems with writing from the west coast is that, by the time you get into the office, everyone in the blogosphere has weighed in on a big product before you’ve even seen it. So it goes (or went) with this Apple Mighty Mouse, and it appears from out here that the days of the single-button Apple mouse may be over. But first: The scroll ball on top of this mouse is the main feature (in our opinion), and it allows you to scroll anywhere within a document. Incorporating a touchpad-like sensitivity, the mouse allows you to move within the screen by touching the mouse as well as moving it. And then: there are two squeeze buttons, one on each side of the mouse. As everyone on the web seems to be considering this morning, that’s a lot of buttons for an Apple mouse. And, of course, Apple has managed to keep the mouse looking nearly as sleek as the company’s last mouse. There you go.
