Rating: - Works very well, good ergonomics (at least for me)
I like the mouse - I have it configured as a three-button-mouse and use the scroll ball all the time. It is accurate, fits my hands well, and hasn't let me down yet (the track ball get clogged up somtimes, but so far I've always been able to get it working again by using a moist towel and rubbing the track ball back and forth really hard - it gets unclogged relatively easily that way). If it does byte the dust (mice do after some time), I will not hesitate to order another one (well, I have three ... Read More
Rating: - Horrible mouse
Do not be affected by the outer beauty of this mouse. It is the worst mouse I ever seen. Buttons can not be pressed together, buttons are not distinguished, so you press right button and the left get pressed instead. Imagine selecting huge piece of text and then press the right button for options, and the left got pressed and you lose all the selected text. The scroll is awful, as it simply cannot be used after few days. Cleaning it is simply impossible to do. My might mouse now lives with the mice ... Read More
Rating: - excellent design serves function without fluff
Contrary to popular cut-and-paste 'witticisms', this mouse is designed on a function-leading-form logic.
Can't find fault in this mouse, although the wireless version is a worthless and heavy device to be avoided at all costs. I use this thing all day long, every day, working with adobe products. I prefer it to 'ergonomic' designs that only allow your hand to be in one grip position. With this mouse, you can finesse it with different grips, and it weighs less - nice when brushing or moving ... Read More
Rating: - Pretty but practically unusable. Go Logitech.
Eventually a mouse's scroll wheel/ball will need to be cleaned. This is a fact that every computer user on the planet understands and accepts.
Except Apple computer engineers.
You can't clean the inside of an Apple Mighty Mouse, and that's a design flaw, plain and simple. After 3-6 months of use, it will become gunked up and will stop working. Additionally, the side buttons are unusable, and my guess is that these were never properly vetted by the engineers during R&D.

Rating: - when it works, it's great
I got this mouse when my work computer was upgraded. When it works, it's awesome. The scroll wheel is great, the side buttons launching spaces is super easy and convenient, and I love the sensitivity.
Drawbacks: I've already had to use the can o air on the scroll wheel a couple times (had the mouse for about 3 weeks). It decided to stop scrolling up one day because it was dirty I guess. Today, the side buttons have stopped working, and even after cleaning and unplugging they still won't work. ... Read More
