Just received the new wireless mighty mouse, by courier today!
This is an excellent product. The right click now actually works (compared to wired version). Pity about the two side force buttons, still awkward to use. Does anybody find the side force buttons on either mighty mouse useful?

Yes, I use it for activating the Dashboard, and the middle button for F11 Expose..
That was a fast ordering/despatch/delivery process!

I would buy one of these if they did a rethink of the scroll nipple. It feels so awkward to use

Also got mine yesterday.
Use the side buttons for Dashboard and the middle (nipple) button for Eye TV.
Haven't set the other ones up yet.
Overall seems pretty good. Although the movement seems a bit slower than my other BT Apple Mouse. Should add I have moved the setting to the fastest speed just seems slower.

Feels much heavier than the USB Mighty Mouse which is obvious because ive got 2 batts loaded but it glides real smooth probably because its new.
it opens up a 360 degree scroll option in Mouse Preferences whereas previously you only had a Horizontal on or off, you now have a few choices...
i like having a total wireless desktop set again

I find the side buttons very useful. It would be handy if you could program each side button to a different feature but I guess the left button (if your right handed) is a bit awkaward to use.
I'm set up with Expose All Windows on the nipple, and Expose Dashboard on the side button. I use it all the time as I usually have a heap of windows open.

i have a usb mighty mouse and kinda like it now that i am used to it. i love the description of the ball as a nipple. thats awesome. i have had a few problems with the ball getting stuck but you just have to follow the instructions on how to clean it and it came good again. otherwise yeah i have been pretty happy. i don't think i would like the bluetooth one cos the having to buy batteries would start to annoy me or recharge them even.
i use my side buttons for expose cos i usually have quite a few windows open at once. never had any problems with buttons not working, like the 3rd button but just took some getting used to.
