The Apple Magic Mouse, the same Multi-Touch technology first introduced on the revolutionary iPhone comes to the mouse. Inspired by the multi touch technology in the iPhone and trackpad on modern MacBooks, Magic Mouse is the zero-button, gesture-sensing, wireless pointing-device of your dreams. It is the world’s first Multi-Touch mouse. Click anywhere, scroll in any direction and swipe through images on its smooth, seamless top shell. It works wirelessly using Bluetooth so you don’t have to worry about cables or adapters cluttering your workspace. And built-in software lets you configure Magic Mouse any way you want.

The Multi-Touch area covers the top surface of Magic Mouse and the mouse itself is the button. To left-click, you can click on the top-left corner of the surface. To activate the context menu, you can click the top-right corner to initiate the right-click. But the great thing is Apple brings iPhone-like touch features to the Magic mouse. Simply swipe your finger up, down to scroll through pages. Use one finger to brush along the Multi-Touch surface to scroll in any direction and to pan a full 360 degrees. You can also swipe left and right with two fingers along the surface to navigate through web pages in Safari or view photos in iPhoto. Furthermore, you can hold down the Control key on your keyboard and scroll with your finger to enlarge items on your screen. Inside Magic Mouse is a chip that tells it exactly what you want to do. Which means Magic Mouse won’t confuse a scroll with a swipe. It even knows when you are just resting your hand on it.

Magic Mouse uses powerful laser tracking that is far more sensitive and responsive on more surfaces than traditional optical tracking. That means it tracks with precision on nearly every surface whether it is a table at your favorite cafe or the desk in your home office, without the need for a mousepad.

Apple Magic Mouse has built-in two AA batteries and has automatic power-saving mode. Two normal AA batteries can be used up to 4 months. The Magic mouse will come with the new iMac. But you can also purchase it separately at about US$69.
