Wireless Apple or Mighty Mouse?

I bought myself a wireless apple mouse today (bluetooth) but I can't get the equivilent of a right button click with it! as a result I checked the apple site and it appears that the mouse is not the mighty mouse but just a normal one button mouse!

I was wondering why the wired and wireless mice were the same price! as much as I would like a bluetooth mouse the fact is that the lack of right click function drives me mad!

So I think I will go change it for a mighty mouse tomorrow however if anyone knows of a way to right click with the wireless mouse on XP please let me know and also let me know if I can right click on the mighty mouse as well. Thanks.

As amusing as that may have been to you if you can answer me that would be more helpful!

Its not really a big deal I can just go change it for a mighty mouse - but I want to know that if I do I can right and left click on it or I would get a normal windows mouse!

Are you using a PC or a Mac?

I am using a PC well one of these new Intel Core Duo laptops and I have an apple wired keyboard which works fine and the wireless mouse worked just not the right click function.

So I want to know that if I change the wireless mouse with s mighty mouse tomorrow that I can left and right click with no problems - I know I wont get all the functionality but I can live without all its features I just want to be able to left and right click!

Hope this helps!

Thanks that works great! I was wondering if there was a utility to do that but couldn't find one anywhere!

But that still leaves a few questions, firstly is it worth having a mighty mouse over a wireless one? Do the features on it outweigh the wireless usabilty - on the basis that I only bought the wireless mouse to keep a USB slot free BUT the keyboard has two so that is not an issue as I can use one of those.

And also can you left and right click on the mighty mouse on XP on a PC?

AFAIK there is no wireless mighty mouse :) Maybe Apple will release one...

ok but with the USB version of the mighty mouse can you left and right click and scroll on PC?

#364743

It does left and right clicks, however I heard that the scroll ball only lets you scroll up and down, and you have to lift your finger to right click.

I could be wrong though.

The mighty mouse seems better, I've never really cared for wireless mouses... all the battery issues and such. Check Cnet for an unbiased review. I think they chose the wireless. So are you saying that you have the MacBook Pro?

HE HAS A WINDOWS COMPUTER!!!

Yeah..... the mice are nice, but I would highly recommend downing your money on a nice Logitech or Razer instead.
