Removed, as I have been notified that this could be a hoax. I don't want to be banned!. :)

I'd like the option to change 2-finger+click to trigger Spaces, but I'll take anything I can get.

Fake.

Vertical spacing is wrong.
Gesture doesn't make any sense. Would Apple make people have to lift their right finger off the mouse to do a left click?

The 2-finger+click gesture works for me. I only use one finger when right or left clicking (you can't right click with 2 fingers on the mouse anyway).

That´s pretty funny because it doesn´t show up anywhere on my new imac with 10.6.1.
This is the one thing the old mighty mouse has over the new magic mouse, IMO.

I think this is "supposed to be' from the upcoming point release, not from the current release. There are supposedly touch-pad configuration enhancements in that release.

Missed that "suppose to be" - "update" part. Still if I have to click a key, and swipe, I´ll just use the f3 key instead.
Also, it looks like the zoom video that is being shown in that pic.
Either way, hope they figure something out not involving the keyboard.

Looks like Expose has been catered for in SL System Preferences:

I actually got excited about this.

Be careful. From the Forum Rules

I'm hoping they've got enough chips stuck inside them so that they can add features such as exposé. I think I could settle for up to a 3 finger swipe on the MM before it would start to get difficult.

As they've added gestures in some parts of the Pro apps it would be pretty freaking cool to be able to use them.

I've been using the MM since Sunday and other than no expose it's way surpassed my expectations. The feel of it, including holding it and clicking has a really high quality feel to it and I couldn't live without momentum scrolling now! If the expose option is true (which I suspect is highly likely) then it's 10/10 from me instead of it's current 9.5/10.

Add 3 finger gestures then I'll give it 11/10!!

I will miss my squeezes, but I guess those hot corners will have to do.

I can imagine a real software update later will reintroduce it.

Maybe a triple tap or something.

I'd like to be able to do a single finger forward / backward page swipe instead of the two finger.

What does the middle finger gesture do? :p :D

It would be nice if it did that if there were no horizontal scroll bars. I'm just hoping this mouse has the hardware it needs to realize its true multi-touch potential :p

no need for three finger expose, two is fine since you only need one to scroll.

give me two finger expose and ill be a happy camper
