With Magic Mouse, Apple has brought Multi-Touch technology to the desktop mouse,
giving you a new and more intuitive way to interact with your computer. Just as
with iPhone, iPod touch, and MacBook Pro, the Bluetooth Magic Mouse adds
gestures and swipes to the usual clicks to bring more functionality and help you
get more done with less effort.
The entire top of the mouse is a Multi-Touch surface.
Beautiful Design with Seamless Multi-Touch Surface
One look at Magic Mouse and you'll know it's something special that only Apple
could dream up. With a low-profile design and seamless top shell, you'll marvel
at this beautiful mouse and its smooth, buttonless appearance.
It's not all looks, though. Once you touch it, you'll appreciate how good it
feels in your hand. And the magic really begins when you start using it. The
Multi-Touch surface covers the entire top of the mouse, and the mouse itself is
the button. Scroll in any direction with one finger, swipe through web pages and
photos with two, and click and double-click anywhere. Inside Magic Mouse is a
chip that tells it exactly what you want to do. Which means Magic Mouse won’t
confuse a scroll with a swipe. It even knows when you’re just resting your hand
on it.
Laser-Tracking Engine
Magic Mouse uses powerful laser tracking that’s far more sensitive and
responsive on more surfaces than traditional optical tracking. That means it
tracks with precision on nearly every surface - whether it’s a table at your
favorite cafe or the desk in your home office - without the need for a mousepad.
Wireless Convenience with Easy Bluetooth Setup
Magic Mouse connects wirelessly to your Mac via Bluetooth, so there’s no wire or
separate adapter to worry about. Pair Magic Mouse with your Bluetooth-enabled
Mac and enjoy a reliable and secure connection up to 33 feet away. When you
combine Magic Mouse with the Apple Wireless Keyboard, you create a workspace
free of annoying cables.
And because Magic Mouse is wireless, it can venture beyond the confines of
your desk. A quick flick of the on/off switch helps conserve battery power while
Magic Mouse is tucked in your bag. Even when it’s on, Magic Mouse manages power
efficiently, by detecting periods of inactivity automatically.
Make One Great Gesture After Another
Multi-Touch technology on the iPhone and iPod touch introduced a breakthrough
way to interact with your content. Magic Mouse, with its Multi-Touch surface,
does the same thing for your Mac. When you use gestures, it’s as if you’re
touching what’s on your screen. For instance, swiping through web pages in
Safari gives you the feeling of flicking through pages in a magazine. And
scrolling with Magic Mouse isn’t your everyday scrolling. It supports momentum
scrolling (similar to iPhone and iPod touch), where the scrolling speed is
dictated by how fast or slowly you perform the gesture.
Stunning, beautiful design by Apple.
Give It Your Personal Touch
Maybe you want scrolling but don’t want swiping. Or two-button clicking instead
of one. Whatever the case, Magic Mouse works the way you want it to work. All
you do is go to the Magic Mouse preference pane in System Preferences to enable
or disable features.
The ambidextrous design of Magic Mouse means it fits comfortably in your
right hand if you’re a righty or in your left hand if you’re a lefty. And
left-handers can easily swap left and right button functionality using System
Preferences.

- Bluetooth-enabled Mac computer
- Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later with Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0
