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.
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
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.
