I want one! I'll only get one though if it works with windows as well. I need a mouse with a right click feature for windows.
Got a tip for us?

It didn't work for me either at first, but after intense rubbing, and exchanging water with some sort of cleaning liquid, I finally managed to get it working again.Peace said:
Oh, and the video is just the most informative I've ever seen.

I want to be able to pick it up and talk to it
Or if they made it integrated with front row remote so you only had to carry the mouse around.
I've just picked one up from the Meadowhall (Sheffield, UK) store tonight - they said they were announced at 2:00pm, came into stock at 3:00pm and they'd been taking calls about them since!bilbo--baggins said:
I think it's fantastic - works exactly the same as the wired mighty mouse, but without the wire. Having no red light underneath seems a bit strange though!

That's good to hear. Unfortunately it's about an hour and a half to my nearest Apple Store (Birmingham). My local John Lewis might get them in time for Christmas. It's going to have to be the Apple Store Online (get a few Nectar points too!).

How much ? isnt on the UK online store yet and I cant find the price anywhere else.
These things must be popular.I just ordered one from the online store and it says shipping Aug 1st.
The people whining about the right click is talking nonsense IMHO.
The way I see it, the real problem with the mouse, the real design flaw if you will, is the damn scrollball. When it works, it's great, but it gets really aggravating sometimes when it decides to stick.
Personally, I will be avoiding this mouse.

I bought mine at Regent's Street at about 7pm. A salesman said he had them but couldn't sell them, and when I insisted it was on the site, he pulled it up and there it was, much to his surprise. I took two.
These things are fantastic.
FWIW, I did get an education discount.

Ok so there good but why? Do they feel better then the wired ones or is this your first time using them?
£49 - not sure how much stock the shops got but when I rang at about 4:00pm today they said they'd got 15 left but advised me to reserve one so it'd still be there when I went to pick it up!MacDonaldsd said:

Captain the ship is about to EXPLODE !!!
Captain this primitive computer is made from foam aluminum !!!!!!
I don't think anyone got it...
Hello, computer?
What if you could assign the scroll ball to magnify photos-just like on a MS mouse? iPhoto doesn't make use the Mighty Mouse a lot.
Unsung Feature - May Run On ONE AA Battery or Two, You Decide
Unsung Feature - May Run On ONE AA Battery or Two, You Decide. I believe that would be a first among all consumer electronics. Anyone know of anything else that lets the second AA or AAA battery be optional? So while running on one rechargable, a second one can be in your recharger or case already recharged. Brilliant!
I've been using the RF-USB Wireless Kensington Turbo Mouse Pro for two years.

Agreed. It's not that much for a good bluetooth mouse (provided the connection really works) . I have used Logitech V270, which has been quite sketchy, so I look forward to trying the Apple product.
I have to admit that I have almost zero interest in this. I'm glad to see that Apple is continuing to move away from the one-button mouse strategy and that they're continuing to TRY to do innovative things, but there's really just nothing at all about the Mighty Mouse that I like (with the exception that it's bluetooth). I'd rather just pick up any one of a number of better mice from Logitech.
Now, if Apple added a REAL second button to their laptops, that'd appeal to me. It's just about the last thing holding me back from buying one again - the one-button (or even pseudo-2-button) thing drives me absolutely insane!
