Good idea: ditch the annoying scroll nipple (especially
annoying on Apple's previous mice) and turn the entire top
surface into a multitouch trackpad. That's what Apple's done
with the Magic Mouse. Is this the end of the scroll wheel?
I kind of hope so. Even the best scroll wheels feel like
a thing of the past--a mechanical moving part that's not as
precise as a touchpad scroll, and not as silent. Now, the
scrolling (and rotating and browsing) is handled by a slick
multitouch surface that covers the entire upper shell of the
polycarbonate mouse. And thankfully, the analog "click"
remains.
Microsoft's far-out mouse prototypes we saw a few weeks ago
showed they too are leaning in a multitouch direction with
their pointers. I'm all for it.
