Apple’s Magic Mouse finally arrives
I finally got my hands on the new Magic Mouse last weekend (Apple must rub their hands in glee when it's my birthday) and all i can say is 'it's amazing'.
I've never been so impressed with something that is, well, just a mouse at the end of the day. The build quality is second to none, it feels solid, with an almost ceramic feel to it and even the aluminium underside matches my MacBook Pro. (The usual Apple attention to detail is outstanding).
What's even more impressive is the way you scroll on the Mac using it. It works exactly the same way as the iPhone touch screen. When in Safari for example, the quicker you glide your finger down the top of the mouse, the quicker Safari scrolls, and vice versa, i find i do it just to see it working.
It's just sublime to use and even the packaging it came in was up to Apple's usual standard, a minimal clear plastic casing to show it off as soon as you open the packet. So yes, to say i'm pleased would be an understatement but what next on my Apple shopping list?
