Logitech MX 900. The same mouse as MX 700, just with bluetooth. Kind of expensive though...

The Apple Bluetooth mouse works excellently, as does their Bluetooth keyboard.
There are others out and coming supposedly. There is an earlier thread, if you can locate it.
The Microsoft RF cordless mouse works as well on the Mac's. The have a nice Intellipoint driver included for OSX.
Bluetooth is nice, but not mandatory, especially if you find the mouse with the right comfort and connectivity.
Rumor also has multi-button mice showing up at MacWorld in January. I can see Steve with his Bluetooth clicker now.
Bluetooth will be hot stuff in 2004.

Yeah, I like the MS Bluetooth mouse. . . but no support for extra buttons where as their regular IntelliMouse Explorer Wireless does.
Tooki is going to lock this up by the way. . . it is suppose to be in Peripherals.

Belkin has a BT mouse now too--which officially supports Macs. 4 or 5 buttons. But I see no mention of driver software, just HID compliance. That makes me think the extra buttons will be usable in games, but not customizable in other apps. I'm not certain.
(Suggestion: I think Bluetooth discussions make good sense in Peripherals OR here. BT mice are primarily a PowerBook issue, and rarely an issue for other Macs.)

Not ANOTHER thread on this!
Do a search, and/or look in the PERIPHERALS forum where this belongs.
