Anyone have any experience with MacMice's "The Mouse"? It looks like the two button mouse Apple should have made.

and if Apple made a two button mouse people would be complaining that ...

• it didn't have a scroll wheel
• it only had two buttons
• it wasn't available in the colour they wanted
• the click was too noisy
• they had stolen the idea from someone else and were putting them out of business without giving credit

Apple only make a one button mouse. This is sufficient to operate MacOS for most people. People that use the more advanced features can go an buy the multi-button mouse of their choice and use it. Compared to the cost of buying a system/OS mice are cheap.

The Apple mouse is great for those in nursing homes and in kindergarten class with limited motor skills... but for anyone seriusly using a computer a multi button mouse with scroll wheel is a must have.

The logitech2 button scroll is around 20 bucks at Staples.

I think that mouse is sweet. There is a limited edition black version too.

I think Apple should at least make a 2 or 3 button Mouse as an option for the Professionals. We have all those exciting apps like Maya and they make extensive use of a 3 or 3 button Mouse.
Come on Apple do something to make us Happy. I don't think anybody will complain if there is an option to choose from.

Yes it is. Check out Macintouch for a full report.

Definitely shop around. I bet you will find that mouse somewhere for much cheaper.
