I’ve always been sceptic about using any other type of pointer device besides a mouse. Whenever I had to use any kind of trackballs, mini-joysticks or track-pads I begged for a decent mouse. Even my old laptop track-pad, which I used several times for long periods, was barely usable.

However the Powerbook track-pad is rather easy to use. I often find myself using it without even noticing I forgot to connect my mouse. The scroll-with-two-fingers feature is just hyper-intuitive and it transmits an enormous sense of control (I can scroll slowly or fast without much effort).

Having said this I’m still getting a Mighty Mouse as soon as I can.
