A Better Mouse


Many inventors dream of building a better mousetrap.

Apple thinks they've built a better mouse.

The "Magic Mouse" is, in Apple's words, the world's first "multi-touch" mouse. According to PCMag.com, "The mouse doesn't feature physical buttons, instead relying on touch, taps, and swipes. As Apple puts it, "the mouse itself is the button." Users can scroll, flip through Web pages and photos, and can click or double-click anywhere on the mouse's surface." Mark Kellner at the Washington Times said that the mouse "truly is magic." I don't know... kind of sounds like the touchpad on my aging Dell XPS to me... I guess it's time to go to an Apple store and test drive one to see if Apple really did build a better mouse.
