I don't know how, but it looks pretty.

Yes. Another brand-new innovation by Apple.

My Magic Mouse just eats batteries. Had to get two sets of rechargeable AAs.

The Mac Trackpad

I got one of those Trackpad's for me iMac the other day. It's not cheap at £60. I've been using it alongside my mightymouse.

After a few days getting used to the gestures I'm really liking it. Feels like something an evil bond villain should have. I move around my 4 spaces, switch to the dashboard and browse all open applications with considerable ease.

I would not say you need to rush out and get one but using it with a 24" screen is awesome.
