Magic. Sort of.

So, I’ve been using the Apple Magic Mouse for over a week now. And yes, like everything else that Apple comes out with, the design is pure genius. Very minimalist. At first glance, it looks like it’s carved out of a slab of marble.

I love the iPod Touch’s capacitive screen and I like that the trackpad for the MacBook Pro is very configurable. The touch interface for the Magic Mouse is as good if not better but the mouse tends to move when you do the two-finger side swipe. It’s slightly irritating but not something that can’t be gotten used to. Also, no pinch zoom. It tethers quite easily too and remained connected even when I took the mouse to the toilet. Yeah, don’t ask.

The one huge caveat is the price- I had to pay AUD 99 for it. Not cool.

In my defense, I was bored. Uneventful Sunday, you see. :)

Your choice of image? It's got me smiling. I never noticed before now that the focus is on your desk, a certain… aspect of it.

That defense is lame, but hoo boy, what an attempt at irreverence :)

You know me. I'm a regular maverick.
