Apple - Magic Mouse - The world?s first Multi-Touch mouse.

The magic mouse is very nice (it's what I use), but you can get much cheaper. Most USB and bluetooth mice are compatible with mac. If you do get the magic mouse, be sure to download BetterTouchTool to greatly expand its capability! Actually, if you have any portable mac, you should probably download it.

Or you could just buy a normal, reasonably priced two-button mouse and then tape down the second button because apparently Mr. Jobs thinks two buttons is just too much for anyone to handle.

I'm kunfuzed alreedy?

Try BluePoint in Simpson Bay past the cinema on the right. They have a good selection of mac products and accessories. Prices are actually decent.

BTW: the mighty mouse may look like it has only one button but it actually senses which side of the mouse you clicked and is so much more functional than any standard 2 button mouse. It has a vertical and horizontal scroll ball. And (I know from experience) if you drop it several times (and the pieces go flying) it still works (if you find all the pieces).

Don't hate on the mac. You just end up looking silly.

Apple must have thought they were on top of the user input world with this little number, since they kept it around for about 5 years. Look at it; such beauty, such mystique! How could anyone want anything else?

My one complaint about my mighty mouse is that the side buttons are way too hard to press. Uncle steve must have some serious thumb strength...

i gave up on apple mice long ago. logitech is the way to go
