Alongside refreshes to the its Macbook and Mac Mini lines, Apple today made yet another attempt to get the whole mouse thing right, with the Magic Mouse. The latest Mac mouse follows the not especially well received Mighty Mouse and its much-hated predecessor, the single button Round USB "hockey puck" mouse. According to Apple, the new Magic Mouse is "the world's first multi-touch mouse."

The mouse doesn't feature physical buttons, instead relying on touch, taps, and swipes. As Apple puts it, "the mouse itself is the button." Users can scroll and flip through Web pages and photos, and can click or double-click anywhere on the mouse's surface. The mouse also utilizes laser-tracking for increased efficiency without the need of a mousepad.

The Magic Mouse is Bluetooth-enabled and is customizable via Apple System Preferences. Users must have Mac OS X 10.5.8 or later and the Wireless Mouse Software Update 1.0.

The new mouse ships with new versions of the iMac or can be purchased separately for $69 from the Apple Store. It's available now.
