When I first bought a magic mouse several months ago I had the experience of heavy battery drain in combination with the use of the Bluetooth keyboard. This was recognized by others and after a software update it worked fine and battery drain was resolved. Now we have 5 magic mouses (and not working with Bluetooth keyboards anymore) in the house and suddenly we experience very exceptional battery drain since two weeks. The mouses have become almost unusable, battery levels drop in two hours, indicating any value between 50% and 0 in between almost ad random....
sigh... I really really like the MM (except for horzintal scrolling in excel...) any ideas what could be wrong? is this software related again?
