Mighty Mouse – first touch

[I’ve decided to use this post to add further insights and external links related to Mighty Mouse.]

The Mighty Mouse feels great! I did expect a more robust grip for the 4-directional wheel, something like the rubber scrollers you get on other mice. However, Apple is Apple and they’ve leapfrogged over the competition in design and functionality.

Ironically, having two wide-screen Macs means that I will seldom have the opportunity of using horizontal scrolling.

Externals
Steermouse – Shareware that tweaks your Mighty Mouse so it can do more things than Apple taught it to.
Cons
Bummer, I realised there was an Apple software CD for Mighty Mouse, so I popped it in and was told that additional functionalities could only be installed on Tiger. Geeze.
