The Apple Magic Mouse is a highly innovative gadget which accomplishes plenty more, apart from the regular tasks of an average mouse. First of all, the style and design of this Magic Mouse is like none other. Glossy pearl white in colour with the Apple logo adorning it, this device looks highly appealing to the eye. Secondly, it incorporates a totally new technical design and offers a new method of operating.
There is however, dull news. This mouse is supposed to work only with Mac computers and laptops running the Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later. It can be linked to the PCs via Bluetooth. Hence other laptops from the various manufacturers cannot use this device.
Unlike a regular mouse, which presents buttons at top, for right and left clicks, the Magic Mouse is itself the button. There are no explicit right and left click buttons. Hence, this Apple Mouse has a seamless design. Therefore you can click anywhere on it. The top right corner however, presents the right click functionality, while the rest of the mouse behaves like the regular left click area.
The top portion of the mouse integrates multi-touch capability. A user can scroll up & down and sideways, by using normal finger gestures. Plus, swiping with 2 fingers allows flipping through images, music files and web pages.
The Apple Magic mouse is supposed to be highly precise in recognising what the user wants to do. It is said to be capable of sensing when the user is relaxing his hand and when he touches for operating on the screen. The Magic mouse can be customised to be used for left-handed people as well. Magnifying and reducing page size can be done too, by swiping the finger up and down respectively, by holding down the “Ctrl” key on the keyboard.
Thus, the Apple Magic Multi-Touch Mouse is a highly innovative and novel idea from Apple. It does seem ergonomic too, with its compact design and gesture-friendly operations. The price of this gadget is £56, approximately.
