Does anyone know of a two-button mouse with a scroll wheel that will match the iBook's white plastic case? I've been trying to look for one but most of the so-called "white" mouse isnt the kind of white the iBook is OR doesn't reflect an Apple feel. I saw a sony seamless mouse thats two button with scroll wheel, but you cant see the buttons. The problem is that it doesnt come in white. It would have been more suited for a powerbook.

I guess I'm trying to look for a mouse that is kinda like Apple's own mouse, but with two buttons or even just a scroll wheel. Is there anything like that out there? Does it even exist?

Also, if you guys know of any online shops that specialize in Apple specific or related products, more specifically if they sell white stuff that match the iBook, but besides the more normal places like thinkdifferentstore.com or even like macconnection or something. Your input would be great. Thanks

I have the white special edition Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse. It was pretty cheap, is the same bright white colour as the iBook, and is wireless (uses a USB base station, not bluetooth). Naturally it has 2 buttons and a scroll wheel.

Have a look for it. I really like mine.

I use the IceMouseJr from Macally which is just perfect. Even is optical. Best I have seen and used so far.
