awesome announcement! i just purchased a Logitech MX518 for my PC and was planning a MacMice the Mouse for my Mac, but that's about to change thanks to Apple realizing the NEED for the 2 button mouse.

[ZeeZ]

I actually think a scollWHEEL is much better - but with the applehype going on they will probably send millions back to the stoneage

[Timan]

Well I bought it because the damn mx1000 looks like a brick next to the apple keyboard .

Plus there are no actual mouse buttons, pure touch, plus a built in speaker to make a clicking noise lol.

[styke]

Wow! They did include a speaker? lol!

I was just wondering how can it be used in a PC

[steelfist]

this is going to be a very good/creative mouse. going to buy it no matter WHAT!

however, i still don't understand how to use that "nipple" on the mouse. if i were to use that, i would feel perverted do you see my problem? :slant:

also, for some reason it reminds of that celebrity jeopardy video wtih "sean connery" and alex trebeck and the "penis mightier" instead of "pen is mighter" .............man "will that really mighty my penis?" that was a really funny video.

[Timan]

I bet stevie when he gets back from the states (YES HE's HERE RUN!) will die over it, he was telling me the other day he uses a trackball mouse >_

[Asdrubale88]

looks amazing

[Pedroz]

mmm... ;( I likes much more my own brand new Razer Diamondback mouse. It looks much more "21st century thing" than this one.... mmm....

[Frenchie]

Honestly, this is probably the biggest mouse improvement I've seen for a really long time. Excellent work on the design and everything... *sigh*, if only I had my ibook to use it on!!

[rjohnstone]

The "nipple" is the scroll ball. Still sounds perverted either way.

System Requirements : Mac OS X (programmability requires Mac OS X v10.4.2 Tiger or later), or Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

It works with Windows too!!!

[bh2]

Looking forward to this...retail outlets are?

[siddharth]

lol @ freakin Mac users...getting so happy over a 2 button mouse.

We Windows users have had them for 10 years you know....laff

[steelfist]

it's not only a 2 button mouse you know......:slant: it's a bit diffrent than the ones you used 10 years ago and also the ones you use now.

[rjohnstone]

It's really a four button mouse with a scroll "ball" instead of a wheel. Hardly a new idea.

The four button mouse has been around for over 10 years.

All they did was hide the buttons under a thin cover... nice idea, wonder how durable it is?

[pwnzrzpat]

they didn't "hide" the buttons. they are touch sensitive. you don't click them. you apply force on one side or the other like the force buttons on the sides. it's basically all touchie with a speaker that makes a noise... the ball is the first ball to be used for a scroll ball. yes trackballs but they were used for moving the cursor not purposely for scrolling. not VERY innovative, but a new idea nonetheless

wtf why is is cheaper than the one button bluetooth mouse? that one sucks now

[Nirodha]

it's a mouse dont have an orgasm. Also the scroll ball is being used on other mice that are available

[pwnzrzpat]

please link. i've only seen mice with scroll wheels that move around in their socket for left right. i couldn't find any that have a scroll ball

[Raul Montana]

ROFL I agree, these kids are like super-amazed with a mouse

[pwnzrzpat]

yeah and your uber obsession with longhorn vista **** that is basically a ****tied up version of tiger is no less. people will always get excited over new apple products simple because it is the pwn. please don't tell me you don't think that mouse is so sexy. go lick your microsoft s+arck. that's like saying "it's just a computer." maybe it doesn't matter to you. but it matters to some people you shouldn't hurt their feelings just because they like a mouse by the best computer company in the world. maybe just the fact that apple has created a mouse that is not one button for hundreds of years makes people excited they don't have to buy 3rd party products for apple purists.

[Nirodha]

Oh geez. Well, have an orgasm then, if it feels that good for you

[rjohnstone]

OMG... people... it's just another f#cking mouse!

Chill out already.

People are so d@mn touchy lately.

[pwnzrzpat]

some noname european brand... btw is it just me or is there no buy button?

I suggest you guys read this article: http://arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/mightymouse.ars

The speaker and "aural" whatever were over hyped a lot apparently.
