The mouse is no more……

…..it’s true. Apple have released the Magic Trackpad. Which is essentially a trackpad nicked out of a MacBook, but slightly bigger and powered by 2 AA batteries.

It’s not all too dissimilar to a post I made last year, on MacRumors.com. It was an Apple wish list post and I said……

T'was my idea all along

And the final product…..

The real thing

Looks nice, I was wrong with the overlays – maybe that’s Magic TouchPad!

I’ve not seen it in the flesh yet as it seems not to have made it to Brum. Still hopefully I’ll get to see one tomorrow (probably purchasing it as well).

Might be ebaying the Mighty Mouse then!

/edit

Was in the Apple Store Solihull today – I asked – it was in stock, yeah you already know what happened……

The Actual thing

The Actual thing

Just trying to get use to tap or click to operate single click. Probably will keep changing this bit. Only issue at the moment is the lack of customisable gestures. Most are fine, though I’d change the task switcher to a spaces switcher.
