After a couple of weeks of using the Magic Mouse, it’s safe to say that I like it a lot. It took some getting used to since the form factor is a lot different from most of the mice I’ve used. But, once I got comfortable with holding it, it became a joy to use. It glides really well and tracking is consistent across different surfaces I use it on. The scrolling experience is the killer feature for me. Momentum scrolling works really well when going through long lines of code or navigating through Photoshop files or the Finder. It even lets you scroll sideways through a very long url if you’re trying to just modify part of it while testing something. Unlike other users, I’m not bothered by the right click probably due to the fact that it seems to be the same action when using an index-finger-controlled trackball. I’m also not missing the middle click since being a keyboard person, my left hand is usually on the keyboard, ready to press a key for opening a new tab or launching Exposé. It’s probably the best mouse I’ve had since the Logitech VX Nano.
(Another plus I think for me is it somehow helps in making me keep a better posture. It is quite difficult to use when in the full-on slouching position.)
