Seems a little sluggish to me...
This
mouse
has a lot to offer. The pairing is easy (mine worked on the first try). The scroll "ball" is very responsive (in fact it's nearly perfect in execution!) and the right-click left-click work (for me) without difficulty.
Unfortunately, there are three fairly disappointing areas. How important they are to you, may vary:
First, and I'll admit this is a purely subjective thing... this mouse just feels "slow." I really can't quantify that except to say, I've used a lot of mice over the years, and this mouse even when on it's highest allowable acceleration is still slow.
Second, the pinch buttons on the side are awkward. I think because the mouse is perfectly symmetrical, and the human hand is NOT, the side pinch-buttons in this mouse are really a colossal ergonomic/human-factors screw-up. (My solution: I just don't use them.)
Lastly, the sensor-shutter/off-switch is (at least on my unit) fairly stubborn. Maybe it will break-in and smooth out over time, but right now it takes a fair amount of effort to slide open and shut. Now, if I simply left the mouse at home on my desk all day that wouldn't be a very big issue, but I bought the
wireless
version so that I could drop it in my laptop case and take it with me. Which means I need to turn off the mouse (and protect the sensor-eye) when it's rolling around in the accessory pouch of my laptop bag.
To mitigate the slow tracking issue, I downloaded a 3rd party mouse accelerator (MouseZoom) and that has really helped with the speed issue, but it definitely came at the cost of some precision. What I find rather strange is when I plug in my old cheapy $16 USB-Optical mouse the tracking on that mouse 'feels' fine. Same for my old Logitech MX700. So, I'm not inclined to believe that the problem is (completely) in my head, or my system. When it comes to tracking speed, I think the
Mighty
Mouse has a meek squeak. And since that IMHO, is the prime function of a mouse, I give it a D+, 3 stars.

Nice Mouse
I just bought a new Macbook PRO and was looking for a matching
mouse
, bluetooth, well made...so I went with the
Mighty
Mouse. The pros are that it LOOKS great with
Apple
, it connects via bluetooh, is fairly smooth with tracking. The problems with it are that it's limited in terms of buttons. If you look at a Logitech mouse you find 4-6 buttons or sometimes MORE, this has a great scroll wheel, you're apple one click, and some "side buttons" that supposedly do something...but feel very awkward.
I would reccommend TRYING it out at an Apple store first. I like it, but it's no where near as awesome as my Logitech G7.

It's a mouse, no rocket science involved
Apparently it's a hit or miss with these
mighty
mouse
s. Mine works fine, haven't had a single problem in the last 6 months that I've used it. Right clicks work, the buttons all work, scrolls perfectly, cant be happier. I guess if you don't want to take the risk of spending 70 bucks on a mouse then don't, but from my own experience I regret not buying one sooner. Think about it people, bluetooth and computer mice have been around for years, how big of a risk can it be?
