Hi all, I was thinking of getting the bluetooth wireless apple keyboard and either the mouse or trackpad but unsure of which one to get. Im more used to a mouse since ive always used pcs since this is my first mac. But i really love the trackpad on my mac. I was thinking of getting the trackpad over the mouse because i wouldnt need a flat surface to use it on like a mouse, i figured i could just place it on my lap or on the couch next to me. Im looking for any opinions from people that have used both and can give me more insight on how they each operate side by side comparison. thank you for all helpful responses.
 
Lion will have more gestures so a trackpad will be very nice with it. I would go with the trackpad, you can always get a cheap USB mouse if you don't like it.
 
awesome thanks for the reassurance hellhammer. i forgot about lion and the added gestures :)
