Hello,

I picked up the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard/Mighty Mouse and I really like the keyboard but the mouse is kind of annoying because it doesn't always register a right click when I right click. I'd rather have a bluetooth mouse that has actually buttons on it.

Any recommendations on a good one that will work with my MPB?

I use the Microsoft Bluetooth 5000 mouse with my MBP and like it a lot. It's small, so you may or may not dig it. But it works very well. Fairly straight forward 2-button plus scroll wheel. There's a third "back" button on one side, but it isn't supported under OSX.

I do need that back button. I read elsewhere that this mouse does not have a back button in MAC OSX. As a former windows user, I really want one on a portable blue tooth mouse. Any suggestions?

USB Overdrive maybe? I don't know...I'm a lefty and the button isn't really in a place where I can use it anyway, so I haven't bothered...
