Magic Mouse user opinions

I've had one for about 3 months now. It's really nice but heavy on the batteries.

I have the wired mighty mouse and personally I've never really liked it as a 2 button mouse, it works great as a command+click mouse though. Now i'm thinking of getting a bluetooth mouse that is OSX compatible and I've noticed that the magic mouse is around the same price as those I'm interested in.

So my question is, should I get one? is it a good mouse? what are your opinions on it if you own one?

I don't own one but people at work here do and I don't like it. I messed around with it and don't use multi-touch. It also feels a tad heavy for me and I prefer wire - having had wireless mice and keyboards before - you eventually have to replace batteries which isn't cheap and is a PITA. I don't sit 33 feet away from my monitor either so a BT mouse is not for me.

I have rechargeable batteries so that's not an issue to me, but yeah I prefer a normal mouse like my logitech or my razer, magicprefs is a great tool though I'm learning to use it for the MM.

Still have to recharge them. It's also probably not good on the planet as the recharging process is not energy efficient and even rechargables get used up eventually and have to make it to a landfill.

So after a few hours use I'd say the scroll and swipe are the best features(the only reason I will continue to use it), clicking requires you to hold the mouse like the video played in the configuration panel which I'm not used to.(I'm a palmer not a clawer)
Not a mouse I'd recommend personally, you'll either love it or hate.

Oh and not really designed with comfort in mind.
