The first Multi-Touch Trackpad designed to work with your Mac desktop
computer, the Apple Magic Trackpad lets your fingers do the clicking, scrolling,
and swiping. The Apple Magic uses the same Multi-Touch technology found on the
MacBook Pro, giving you a whole new way to control and interact with what's on
your screen. Swiping through pages online feels just like flipping through pages
in a book or magazine. Inertial scrolling makes moving up and down a page more
natural than ever. And users can press down anywhere on the Multi-Touch surface
to physically click or double-click on an item--no clumsy buttons involved.
The Largest Multi-Touch Trackpad Ever
The Magic Trackpad is just like the trackpad on the MacBook Pro--but bigger.
It's made with the same advanced touch-friendly and wear-resistant glass
surface, but with nearly 80 percent more area. This gives you even more room to
scroll, swipe, pinch, and rotate to your fingers' content. And because the
entire surface is a button that clicks, you can use it in place of a mouse
without losing a hint of functionality. The Magic Trackpad's full set of
gestures includes two-finger scrolling, pinching to zoom, rotating with your
fingertips, three-finger swiping, and activating Expose or switching between
applications with four fingers.
Plus, the trackpad is customizable. Simply access the Magic Trackpad pane in
System Preferences to enable gestures you want and disable those you don't.
Seamless Wireless Design
The Magic Trackpad fits in perfectly with your Mac desktop, with the same
sculpted aluminum design as the Apple Wireless Keyboard. In fact, side by side
the two sit flush at the same angle and height. This lets you go from trackpad
to keyboard in a single motion, or do both at the same time. How perfect is
that?
The Magic Trackpad connects to your Mac via Bluetooth wireless technology, so
you don't have to deal with an annoying cable that dictates where you place it.
Once you pair the Magic Trackpad with your Bluetooth-enabled Mac, you'll enjoy a
reliable, secure connection up to 33 feet away. In addition, the Magic Trackpad
detects periods of inactivity, with an automatic shutoff feature that saves
battery life. As an alternative, you can turn it off yourself. Both options keep
you gesturing for months at a time.
The Magic Trackpad--which can work in place of a mouse or in conjunction with
the mouse on any Mac computer (even a notebook)--requires a Bluetooth-enabled
Mac computer, two AA batteries (included), Mac OS X Snow Leopard v 10.6.4, and
the latest software update.
