Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Meet the mouse that reinvented the wheel. The scroll wheel, that is. Mighty Mouse features the revolutionary Scroll Ball that lets you move anywhere inside a document, without lifting a finger. And with touch-sensitive technology concealed under the seamless top shell, you get the programability of a four-button mouse in a single-button design. Click, roll, squeeze and scroll. This mouse just aced the maze.

Spry and Mighty
In the beginning, there was one button. Then there were two. Then there were clickable scroll wheels and programmable toggles and solid-state slides. But nobody made a mouse as easy to use as your Mac. Until now. Mighty Mouse combines the capability of a multibutton mouse with Apple's signature top-shell design for the best of both form and function. Use it any way you work: Stick with single-button simplicity or click with multibutton efficiency.

Get Around
Time is round. Space is curved. Why should your mouse be linear? Plenty of applications require you to do more than scroll up and down. Mighty Mouse offers 360-degree scrolling capability, thanks to its Scroll Ball, perfectly positioned to roll smoothly under just one finger. Explore the farthest reaches of your files pan images in iPhoto, view timelines in iMovie HD and Final Cut Pro, traverse bars in GarageBand and Logic Pro with one hand tied behind your back (or holding a cup of coffee or typing). Mighty Mouse gives you room to roam.

You'll Really Click
Touch-sensitive technology under Mighty Mouse's seamless top shell detect where you're clicking, transforming your sleek, one-button mouse into a two-button wonder. But the innovation doesn't end there. Apple engineers added force-sensing buttons on either side of Mighty Mouse that let you squeeze the mouse between your thumb and finger, activating Mac OS X Tiger Dashboard, Exposé or a whole host of other, customizable features instantly.

The Mouse That Roared
Unlike any other mouse on the market, Mighty Mouse was designed specifically to work with Mac OS X Tiger. Up-to-the minute information on Dashboard is only a click away. Viewing, hiding and selecting your windows via Exposé is just as simple. And because Mac OS X Tiger makes Mighty Mouse programmable, you choose where every click takes you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mighty, Mighty Mouse, 16 Sep 2005
By 
Glezza (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Apple Mighty Mouse (USB) - MA086ZM/A (Personal Computers)
I bought one of these about a week after it came out & wow!

I have the normal Apple mouse, which works well & I have a Wireless Microsoft Intellimouse. This "Apple" Mighty Mouse may have a cable (how long before they release a wireless Bluetooth version) but it is the best mouse I have EVER used.

It works great with Mac OS X 10.3.9, and by all accounts it gets even better in Tiger.

If feels great in the hand, the scroll ball is sublime to use & the touch sensitive buttons Left & Right are just so nice to use.

I will be buying one for any Mac I use (and any PC for that matter.)

The old Intellimouse will be collecting dust!

3.0 out of 5 stars There are better mice....., 18 Sep 2007
This review is from: Apple Mighty Mouse (USB) - MA086ZM/A (Personal Computers)
The Mighty Mouse certainly looks good next your shiny new Mac, but as a mouse it is a bit disappointing.

Firstly, it doesn't fit in the hand very well and the side buttons which, when pressed together, bring up the Dashboard are awkward to use. Secondly, the scroll ball wears out quickly. I'm on my second (and last) MM and the scroll up function has stopped working again. Thirdly, at £32, it is ridiculously expensive for a wired mouse.

For the money, you can get a much nicer rodent from Logitech et al with a robust scroll wheel and proper left, right and side buttons, which wont clash with the look of the latest Mac kit

4.0 out of 5 stars One correction on first review about the scroll ball, 22 Jan 2006
By 
Nico (London, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Apple Mighty Mouse (USB) - MA086ZM/A (Personal Computers)
Someone mentioned that the scroll ball suddenly stopped scrolling up and down after three months. It happened to me, and I found the answer on the support pages on the apple website. Rotating the ball in all directions when holding the mouse upside down will clean the mechanism and restore the mouse's scrolling capabilities. Just general maintenence that you have to expect when you have mechanical parts moving. It works well for me and offers the solidity of apple drivers. The only reason why I give it 4 stars and not 5 is that right clicking involves lifting your left finger from the 'virtual' left button. Failure to do so seems to confuse the sensors...
