To automatically draw the conclusion that Apple would be phasing out the mouse completely because stock seems constrained is ridiculous. It would be a far more logical assumption that they're making an "upgraded" or all new design.
Phasing the mouse out..
Please. What is Cult Of Mac smoking?
[EDIT: I just remembered reading in some other blog that Microsoft is about to release their own strikingly familiar "Touch Mouse". From
Microsoft's site:
"Featuring natural gestures, Microsoft® Touch Mouse is the most fluid way to navigate Windows®"
And..
"A superior multi-touch mouse for Windows. Microsoft Touch Mouse makes navigating Windows 7 a breeze. Discover how its elegant design quickly handles everyday on-screen actions like scrolling, minimizing/maximizing, and docking with easy-to-learn finger gestures."

It wouldn't surprise me
at all if Apple decided to revamp their own Magic Mouse to remind everyone who the real king of "touch" really is.]
