No, I havn’t heard anything about it, but it would be great, though! For the time being, I’ll stick to my wireless mouse.

i read somewhere...think it was appleinsider.com, that they will be starting to included the mighty mouse in new computers as the phase out the other’s inventory. after the phas is complete they will probably lower prices and realease the bluetooth one, so that sales of the wired one are not affected. so until you see it in every new computer...don’t expect it bluetooth.
if i were apple i would release a micro mighty mouse bluetooth, just like the radtech bt500. that’s the one i currently use...it took some getting used because of the size, but its pretty good.

Yeah, that was on Apple Insider. I bet that by Thanksgiving the BT mighty mouse will be out, i mean apple would want the bump up in sales from sell ups?

You know. I just havent found the appeal of the Mighty Mouse. I like my wireless apple mouse. and for my 3d stuff I just use a 5button wired mouse from MS that works just fine. the price is too high for what it is anyway…

We have a mighty mouse set up for demo purposes, so I get to use it all the time, and frankly the more I use it the more I like it. But a bluetooth version would definitely be sweet!
At home I use the Macmice “The Mouse” black, two button with scroll wheel, works great looks even better!

I won’t buy until it’s BT. At that point though, I’ll pay whatever for it. I was raised on PC, so Apple’s one button always frusterates me. And I don’t want to switch mice to a logitech, microsoft, etc. because that would really look stupid next to an iMac G5 (I’m superficial, oh well).

I wouldn’t want to get a corded apple mouse, if there is a chance of a bluetooth mighty mouse. So I am going to wait until it comes out, if it comes out.

Wasn’t there some comment when the MM was 1st released about being corded because of size issues. Or that a BT mouse would consume so much power? I can’t remember exactly what it was, but there was something hindering BT initially…

The mighty mouse is a large mouse i am sure, that apple could make it blue tooth. I think that apple is going to start to include mighty mice in their computers, as soon as sales slow. Then they will start selling a bluetooth model.

Do you suppose they will start selling them with the new MacIntels? (Or sooner?)

I suppose that they will start to sell them sooner than the MacIntels. Sales of the mighty mouse are sure to slow soon.

it’s just a matter of time. i hope however they switch up the firmware to allow simultaneous left and right clicks being possible. it just seems silly to have to have to have only one finger touching for it to register appropriately.

I told you that the mighty mouse would ship with macs, and now the iMac G5 ships with one. Told you, I know things.

Good, I’ll expect to see it standard on everything soon. Maybe it will go standard on PMs the 19th, then they will allow you to upgrade to a BT one like they do now with the PRO (wired standard, upgrade to BT). Because that will be perfect since I plan on getting a new iMac soon (I want to get the last PPC stuff possible, to give time for the Intel-based Macs to mature and have more software natively on them, but not have a ridiculously outdated computer).

Patience, soon they will all have a mighty mouse.
