Apple was the first company to popularise the mouse in the mid-1980s, but its more recent stabs at the device have been something of a mixed bag. The Magic Mouse is the replacement for the bar-of-soap-style Mighty Mouse that attracted so much ire and...

The Magic Mouse could well grow into something wonderful, with full gesture support and a choice of form factors to suit all tastes. This first release is promising, but unspectacular, and we hope the price falls.
