I never tried the magic mouse yet. I think it’s pretty hard to use. Good thing your used to it. I think I have to try it as well so that I’ll experience the ease of zooming and the Accelerated 360 degree scrolling ^_^ Wooooot!

Can’t say the two black strips bother me. I guess I can’t really comment though because I don’t use a mouse pad. The desks where I primarily use the mouse are smooth as glass.

Maybe i’m not using the MagicMouse correctly… does the 2 rubber traction pads on the bottom annoy u at all? Seems to catch sometimes on mouse pads and makes some noise. Logitech mice skate across mouse pads and desks silently. #onlyBeefwithMagicMouse #returnedButThinkingAboutTryingAgain

I have used a magic mouse for about 9 hours per day since last december.
I simply love it! At first I had to adjust becuase it is so shallow. But that only took me a day…
It’s the best mouse, I’ve had so far.

Cleaned all my Mighty Mouses so the scroll whel works again and put them on eBay…

I’m a MagicPrefs fan, too. I have to say that some of the possible finger combinations are contortion tricks of the hand.

Thanks for the recommendation on MagicPrefs Derek. It opens up many more options that are pretty useful.

I got a Magic Mouse with my new iMac. I love it. At first it did seem a little odd compared to the chunkier mice I used in the past. Even the Mighty Mouse I have is larger than the Magic Mouse.

But now, I like the slim design and of course, I really like the built in touch sensitivity.

Now when I use other people’s mice, I find myself stroking the top of the mouse… and simultaneously wondering why in the world the screen is not scrolling.

In summary, scroll wheels are SO 2009.

The Magic Mouse is the best mouse that I have purchased and owned so far. I realized just how much I like the mouse whenever I have to work on another computer (other than my main notebook). It has really saved me some time in apps like Photoshop.

Unfortunately I am still using a Mighty Mouse. Although I can usually free it with some coaxing, the sticking trackball is really a nuisance. I was hoping to find a positive review of the Magic Mouse here Seeing that all you can muster for a conclusion to this piece is that you “can honestly say that I have not experienced any soreness” leaves me wondering.
