Default Apple unveils world's first multi-touch mouse
I'm surprised no one has talked about this, but Apple is trying to get ahead of MS by releasing the world's first multitouch mouse called the "Magic Mouse".

Honestly in my opinion, it looks nice and it seems like a good idea, but I still want to test it out before I buy it for my laptop (see bottom paragraph) or even say it's "good" or "great." After all it is an Apple product... I'm not sure this thing warrants $69 (or $200 on eBay as I saw the day it came out) even if it uses Bluetooth.

Anyways, read and discuss.

Apple's Magic Mouse: one button, multitouch gestures, Bluetooth, four-month battery life

Also does anyone know if it this thing has drivers for the PC? Some Apple products do (Keyboard, ****ty...err..Mighty Mouse, etc.) and I'm interested in trying it out.

I know I want to try it out first. I want it because it looks cool, and my 11 year old optical mouse is having some issues (wire).
