Apple's Multi-Touch Magic Mouse Now Shipping

"Several MacRumors readers have reported receiving shipping notices from Apple indicating that their Magic Mouse orders have been shipped. At its introduction, Apple announced that while the new multi-touch Magic Mouse is bundled with Apple's new iMac models, the mouse would not be available for standalone purchase until the end of October. The new shipping notices suggest that Apple will be meeting that goal, although customers are still waiting for the device to appear in retail stores.

Apple yesterday released a pair of software updates that will allow Snow Leopard and Leopard users to access the full range of functions on the Magic Mouse. Full support for the Magic Mouse is also apparently being built into Apple's forthcoming Mac OS X 10.6.2 update, which will eliminate the need for future mouse purchasers to install the separate mouse update once that Snow Leopard update is released."

It seems like apple is adding multitouch to everything. The mouse seems like an innovation, but from what I hear, it feels awkward to use.

i would really like to use it. i have the iphone and it will be interesting to see how responsive the touch is on the mouse compared to the phone. what do you think about the product?
