There’s been a lot of buzz about the Apple Magic Mouse, the world’s first Multi-Touch mouse. I wouldn’t be surprised if it shows up in stockings everywhere this holiday season.
Smooth and buttonless, it’s built with a sleek low-profile design and seamless top shell. The Multi-Touch area spans the entire top of the mouse, and the mouse itself acts as the button.
Just like your iPhone or iPod touch, the Magic Mouse is equipped with Multi-Touch technology that lets users use swipes and gestures right on the mouse’s surface. Click or double-click anywhere, scroll in any direction with one finger, or swipe through photos and web pages with 2 fingers.
In fact, it’s really an experience – using gestures is almost like directly touching what’s on your computer screen. Imagine swiping through web pages the way you’d flip through pages in a magazine. So cool.
Miniature sensors can detect the smallest movements, and the mouse can easily distinguish between gestures like a scroll and swipe. It’s even smart enough to understand when a user’s just resting their hand atop it. It also supports momentum scrolling, meaning the scrolling speed is controlled by how fast/slow you perform that gesture.
The Magic Mouse comes standard with new iMacs, but you can also add it to any Bluetooth-enabled Mac.
