I just treated myself to a mighty mouse today. My old mouse was going crazy, I think the optical sensor was giving up, as the arrow would suddenly start shooting all over the screen at any given time.
I will have to agree that on first impressions, I'm not terribly impressed. I wasn't happy with being unable to fully custimize all the buttons (although USB Overdrive fixed this), and the scroll ball seems...to fast. I can't slowly scroll down a page. It either zips down fast or won't go at all. I guess I just have to get used to the sensitivity of it perhaps.
My major beef is with the touch sensitivity of the "buttons". Example: if I want to right-click on something I can ONLY be touching the mouse on the right side. I generally like to left click with my index finder and right click with my middle and/or ring finger. When I'm right clicking, my left finger generally rests on the left button.
However...
With the touch sensitivity of the mouse, if my left finger is resting on the left part of the mouse, even if it is not PRESSING down, merely touching it, when I click on the right part of the button, it still registers as a left click. So now I have to get into the habit of lifting my index finger off the mouse before clicking. Bah.
Probably all things I can get used to, but I guess I was just hoping for more.
